He won his first ever WHL start the following night in Prince Albert. Wutzke played for Team Saskatchewan at the 2021 WHL Cup.

McInnis was selected 91st overall by the Rebels in round five of the 2021 WHL Prospects Draft. The Red Deer native former Red Deer Rebels U15 AAA star played the past two seasons for Yale Hockey Academy U18 Prep and helped Team Alberta win silver at the 2021 WHL Cup.
