The Kindersley Klippers Celebrity Golf Tourney and SJHL Hall of Fame Induction is coming up June 24th!  Country 104 had a chance to catch up with one of the celebs, Ashton Sautner about returning to West Central Saskatchewan.

You are currently playing for the Utica Comets of the American Hockey League, how was this year's season for you?

The AHL is a league we might not hear as much about here in Saskatchewan, what has the experience been like?

How important is it for you to come back home for events like this?

Any words of advice for your potential team mates in the tournament?

 Sautner was born is Flaxcombe, and signed to an entry level contract by the Vancouver Canucks in March of 2015.
