Regina Pats News Release


Regina, Sask. - The Regina Pats have signed 2005-born goaltender Ewan Huet to a WHL Scholarship and Development Agreement.

Huet, 18, was drafted by the Pats with the 36th overall pick in the 2023 CHL Import Draft. Huet played for Lausanne in Switzerland's U20 league in 2022-23, going 14-12-2 with a 2.73 goals-against average and two shutouts. Holding both citizenship in Switzerland and France, Huet is the son of former NHL goaltender Cristobal Huet. The 6-foot, 168 lb. goaltender also represented Switzerland internationally with their U16, U17 teams, and most recently their U18 team at the 2022 IIHF World Championships where he posted a 2-2-0 record, with a 2.50 GAA and a .900 save percentage in four appearances.

"We are pleased that Ewan and his family have committed to the Pats and the WHL," Regina Pats VP, Hockey Operations & GM Alan Millar said. "I had the opportunity to see Ewan play at the IIHF U-18 World Championships in April, and he is an athletic, competitive goaltender, and will be a valuable addition to our team."

Huet will take part in Switzerland's National Junior selection camp ahead of the 2024 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championship later this month, before joining the Pats at training camp.
