Name: Aidan Hreschuk
Position: Defenseman
Year: Senior
Number: 7
Height: 5-11
Hometown: Long Beach, CA
Drafted: #91 overall by the Carolina Hurricanes in 2021, but had his rights traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2022
Last Season: Hreschuk played in all 41 games for BC last season, and was third amongst defensemen with 15 points. He recorded 32 penalty minutes, and definitely isn’t afraid of checking opponents.
Season Outlook: As one of the few seniors on a fairly young team, Hreschuk will join grad student defenseman Eamon Powell in playing a big leadership role for BC. The Eagles have a really strong defensive group this season, so it is difficult to predict where he’ll end up in terms of playing time or defensive paring, but no matter how much ice time he sees he will definitely be an important factor on the bench and in the locker room.
Fun Fact: Hreschuk won a silver medal with the USNTP U17 team during the 2019-20 season.
