Heat Post-Game: Kinnvall debuts, Wolf stands tall in win over Henderson
Johannes Kinnvall has finally arrived.
The 24-year-old right-handed defenceman made his North American professional hockey debut with the Stockton Heat on Friday, assisting on Jakob Pelletier’s game-winning goal late in the third period to help Stockton dispatch the Henderson Silver Knights by a 3–1 score.
Kinnvall’s AHL debut has been a long time coming. He first skated in a Calgary Flames jersey way back at the team’s 2019 summer development camp before signing a two-year entry-level deal with the team the following summer.
