The Grandview Steelers open their Pacific International Junior Hockey League season against the Ridge Meadows Flames on Friday.

The Steelers will have 20-year-old goalie Norbert Biszczak, picked up in a trade with North Delta, in goal.

With just seven returning players this season, the Burnaby Winter Club-based junior B club is looking for bigger things from veteran playmaker Kenny Tanaka and team captain Curtis Rocchetti.

Grandview head coach Aldo Bruno also hopes acquisition Marko Gordic and former Northwest Giants, Rob Wilkinson and Connor Wilson, contribute right away.

"We'll see," said Bruno. "You don't really get a good feeling until the league starts."

Grandview is home to North Delta Sunday at 4 p.m.
