Philosophy
The best lessons leaned through hockey are not all about passing, skating or stick work. Some of the best lessons learned are about values like teamwork, sportsmanship, perseverance, respect and discipline. Hopefully this coaching staff can lead by example and teach these kids some of these qualities while still maintaining the fun and love of the game.
Outlook
This is a very talented group of players that have enjoyed success. This coaching staff will work very hard to provide these players with the tools necessary to elevate their games that will take them to the next level.
