Davies had 10 goals and 17 assists for 27 points in 38 games with the Sherwood Park NIC Squires AAA team in the Alberta Minor Midget Hockey League, and was named the team's top defenseman.
Davies, 6'0, 170 pounds, attended Portland's training camp prior to this season as a free agent, and was added to the team's protected list after camp.

"Throughout the season Jordan continued to impress our scouts and now we are confident he can be a solid WHL player."
