There is plenty of disappointment that the Wolves are out of the O-H-L playoffs for a second straight season, but the club recognized some of the positives at today’s year end awards luncheon.

Even though he’s been with the team for just over half the season…overage forward Mikkel Aagaard had a big impact.
He won four awards including MVP.

Kyle Capobianco was named the best defenseman and Dmitry Sokolov and Alan Lyszczarczyk shared Rookie of the Year honours.

There are three games left in the Wolves season starting Thursday night in North Bay.
