The Sudbury Wolves have signed Illinois goaltender Bjorn Bronas.
Bronas was picked by the team in the fifth round, 89th overall, in the 2023 OHL Priority Selection.
“Bjorn is a goalie currently on the NHL Central Scouting watch list who has been part of USA Hockey’s 2025 National Goaltending Development Camp,” Wolves VP and GM Rob Papineau said in a news release.
“He is committed down the road to Minnesota State University. We are excited to welcome Bjorn and his family to the OHL and the Sudbury Wolves.”
Born in Plainfield, Illinois, in February 2007, Bronas is a 6-2, 190-pound, lefthanded goaltender. He spent the past two seasons with the Sioux City Musketeers.
“As one of the youngest goalies in the USHL last season, he made 25 appearances, going 9-7-2-5 with a .894 save percentage and a 3.12 GAA,” the Wolves said in a news release. “On the 2026 NHL Central Scouting Preliminary Players to Watch List released in October, Bronas was ranked a ‘W’ prospect for the upcoming 2026 NHL Draft.”
Bronas is a product of the Chicago Mission program, and has taken part in multiple USA Selects tournaments, along with USA Hockey’s 2025 National Goaltending Development Camp and the 2025 Chipotle All-American Game, where he made nine saves on nine shots in just over 30 minutes of play for Team Blue, helping them to a 3-2 win.
“Following this transaction, goaltender Finn Marshall has gone home to pursue his options,” the team said in the release. “The Sudbury Wolves would like to thank Finn for his contributions over the past two seasons, and wish him the best of luck in his future endeavours.”
