History
2002-06: The Medicine Hat Tigers selected Jordan Bendfeld in the fourth round of the 2003 WHL Bantam Draft. He played for the Leduc Oil Kings program before joining the Tigers for the second half of the 2004-05 season. He returned to Medicine Hat for the
2005-06 season, which was also his first full season in the WHL.
2006-07: Playing on a very talented and cohesive Medicine Hat team for the season, Bendfeld received quality minutes and continued to progress at a good clip for the year as he took on a larger role.
2007-08: Was named team captain and set a new career high with 160 penalty minutes. Unsigned by Phoenix who had drafted him in 2006, Bendfeld re-entered the draft in 2008 where he was selected by Edmonton.
Talent Analysis
A man among boys in junior, the Edmonton area product welcomed all challenges when it came to dropping the gloves. His offensive numbers took a minor slide in his final junior year but the Oilers didn’t redraft him for his scoring upside; they liked him for his size and toughness which he has plenty of.
Future
Bendfeld turned pro in 2008-09.
