Canucks undefeated at Young Stars Classic, NHL stars now on their way to Penticton

It was another successful Young Stars Classic at the South Okanagan Events Centre (SOEC) in Penticton.

The tournament wrapped up with a pair of games on Monday, including a 4-3 Vancouver Canucks win over the Calgary Flames as the hosts finished the showcase with a perfect 3-0 record.

Although the Young Stars Classic has ended, it’s certainly not the end of Canucks hockey in Penticton this month.

The NHL club will begin its training camp at the SOEC on Thursday, which means big-name stars like Elias Pettersson, Quinn Hughes, JT Miller and Brock Boeser will be in town.
