Is the Penticton Vees’ strategy of bolstering their defensive depth with the acquisition of Oscar Pantzare and the signing of Connor Lee a sign of a championship push, or are they simply plugging holes? Pantzare’s offensive production in Victoria was impressive, but will it translate to the Vees’ system? Even more intriguing is the addition of Connor Lee from the professional EIHL. Is his experience at the pro level, despite his young age, a potential game-changer for Penticton, or is it too much, too soon? What kind of impact can we realistically expect from a 17-year-old jumping from the EIHL to the BCHL? This seems like a high-risk, high-reward move. Where do you see these additions fitting into the Vees lineup, and what does it mean for their playoff aspirations? Is this enough to make them serious contenders? I predict Lee will surprise everyone and become a key player down the stretch. Let the debate begin!
