All three players have a lot of poise and are strong leaders. Matt and Shane are both Stoney Creek residents and while they had opportunities to play elsewhere this season, they both chose to stay and play for their hometown.

One of our key items of strategic focus is developing the next generation of leaders in the firm and the community.

It's open to people in the community. There are a lot of potential leaders out there.

We got off to a great start and I'm very happy with the win and the way we played. I give a lot of credit to Wheatfield. They are a hard working team and they never give up. They have a strong work ethic and are very committed to back checking. Their goaltender also played well in the second and third periods.

In the third period, we generated some great scoring chances. It was good to see that we continued to press through the defensive trap set up by the Falcons in the final period. In the past, we would struggle to generate offense when go against the trap.

I thought we played extremely well. We were well prepared and the guys were focussed. We easily could have won the game, but I am comfortable with how we played.
