Let me start by saying that tonight was a very tough for me personally, but also incredibly hard for all our evaluators. Even though the final selections were made by committee, it is one of the least favourites things a coach must do, and tonight was no exception.
All the kids gave a tremendous effort and are so close in their abilities, which made this extremely difficult – definitely the toughest week I’ve had in recent memory. We tried our best to select the best athletes given the make up of our team. For those not selected, please keep your head high, you are a great hockey player and I look forward to seeing you at the rink.
