The local hockey community is grieving the devastating loss of one of its own, as news of the passing of Koaden Fedun has left teammates, coaches, and families heartbroken. Koaden, known for his passion for the game, unwavering work ethic, and ability to lift the spirits of everyone around him, was a cherished member of the Rangers hockey family.

Described by those who knew him as a loyal teammate and a true friend, Koaden’s enthusiasm for the sport was matched only by his kindness off the ice. He was the player who stayed late to help younger teammates practice, who encouraged others through tough games, and who celebrated victories by bringing the team together — always with a smile.

The Fedun family, along with Koaden’s teammates and coaches, are navigating the immense sorrow of this sudden loss. Community members are being asked to keep them close in thought and prayer as they face the days ahead.

“This is more than losing a player,” one coach shared. “We lost a brother. We lost a piece of our family.”

Plans to honor Koaden’s memory will be announced in the coming days, including a tribute at the rink where he spent countless hours doing what he loved.

Koaden will be remembered not only for his dedication to hockey, but for his warmth, his laugh, and the way he made everyone around him feel valued. His presence will forever remain part of the Rangers’ legacy.

Forever a Ranger. ❤️💙
