Peewee Select was
thrilled to be part of the NHL Alumni vs. Law Enforcement game in support of
the Special Olympics. The players began their day with an on-ice clinic led by
4-time Stanley Cup winner Mike Krushelnyski and Stanley Cup winner Bryan Muir.
The clinic included 2-on-1 and 5-on-2 drills. The team focused on breaking out

offensive zone with speed, and remembering to spread out wide with one player
attacking the net and another player staying high. We look forward to seeing
these strategies demonstrated throughout our season! The clinic ended with an
exciting shootout competition.
