Brandon Wong

BCHL forward Brandon Wong is the brother of Nebraska-Omaha star Andrew Wong. Last January, he was featured in an article on US College Hockey Online, as one of the best remaining recruits for this season's recruiting class. Wong never received the type of offer he was looking for though, and decided to return to the BCHL. It's looking like that decision will pay off for him.

Last season, he put up 70 points in 59 games for the Powell River Paper Kings. This year, with the Merritt Centennials, Wong has 17 points in his first 9 games, which is good for second in the league in scoring. What's more impressive is that Wong, who is known more as a playmaker, is leading the league with 12 goals, three more than the second highest goal scorer in the league.

The article linked above mentions Minnesota State, Mankato and Saint Cloud State as two possible destinations for Wong, but if Wong keeps scoring at this pace, he'll have even more options.

You people should really get your facts straight, before publishing an article. Brandon Wong, as mentioned in the previous comments, has only one brother, Jordan who is younger than he is.

Another Uncle who really knows ...
