Kamloops, BC - The Kamloops Blazers are proud to announce that they have signed 2000-born forward Ryley Appelt to a standard WHL player agreement.

Appelt was selected by the Blazers in the fourth round, 81st overall in the 2015 WHL Bantam Draft.

The Edmonton native, who stands at 6'2.5" and 180lbs, played the 2015-16 season with Edmonton CAC in the Alberta Midget Hockey League. He had seven goals and nine points in 17 games last season.

"Ryley is a big, strong forward who has continued to develop and improve," commented Director of Player Personnel, Matt Recchi. "We feel he has the potential to develop into a power forward that will be effective at both ends of the ice. We are excited to have Ryley join our program."

With the signing of Appelt, the Blazers now have inked their top six selections from the 2015 WHL Bantam Draft.
