Capitals sign 16 year old forward Dryden Kuramoto

DUNCAN, BC – The Cowichan Capitals are excited to announce the signing of 2006 born forward Dryden Kuramoto to the roster as of November 18th, 2022. Kuramoto started the season with the Chilliwack Chiefs, playing in 12 games registering 1 goal and 3 points in the start of his rookie season. Last season as a member of the Vancouver North East Chiefs of the BCEHL, Kuramoto finished with a point per game, 14 goals and 26 points in 26 games played, 7th most on the team. He added another 11 points in 7 playoff games.

Kuramoto played with current Capitals forward Matthew Biros on that Vancouver NE Chiefs team, and was coached by current Capitals Assistant Coach Jamie Jackson. That Chiefs team went on to win the BCEHL last season, and Kuramoto suited up for 5 games with the Chilliwack Chiefs as an affiliate player. Welcome to Cowichan Dryden!

In a corresponding move the Capitals have released forward Bennett Barnes from the roster. The Capitals wish Bennett the best of luck moving forward.
