There was some talk with my agent and other teams. I knew I was going somewhere. I just didn’t know where. And then it happened to be Victoria. They’re a great team. Good Q&A: Ducks prospect Brayden Tracey adjusted in a season of major guys on the team. Good coaching staff. They helped me adjust really change well. It was a quick turnaround, but it went well. What kind of adjustment was that like for you? Eric Stephens I think the systems was a big one. Everything was different. I don’t think there was one thing that was the same. At Moose Jaw, it’s obviously a May 15, 2020 different conference. There’s different systems and how the team plays. Adjusting to that was one of the biggest things for me. Tell me about playing for head coach Dan Price. How did you get to Trevor Zegras was the Ducks’ top pick in last summer’s NHL Draft, but know him and what stands out about him? he wasn’t the only player the club brought up to the stage for introductions and the familiar photo op with team officials. I think what really stands out about Dan is he’s a really caring guy, no matter what’s going on. It could be family problems. It could be school- Brayden Tracey joined Zegras as a Ducks first-round selection at No. 29 related problems. Could be anything. He’s always open to talk to you. overall. A native of Calgary, Tracey did not go in the top 10 or draw as That was the biggest thing I noticed in him. He has a big heart, and he’s much attention as Zegras did during his draft year. But the winger is very motivated to win. He’ll do anything for you. Having that right above you in much an important prospect to monitor. the coaching staff is obviously something you need. Tracey, who turns 19 this month, had a huge first season in the Western What was it like heading back to Moose Jaw for the first time in Hockey League. He was honored with the Jim Piggott Memorial Trophy, February? given to the WHL’s top rookie. The left wing led all first-year scorers with 36 goals and 81 points. And the honor carries some prestige. Winners It was a little emotional for sure. Obviously, that’s where I got my feet wet over the last dozen years include Brayden Schenn, Ryan Nugent- in the league. Going back there was unbelievable. They’re a good team. Hopkins, Matt Dumba, Sam Reinhart, Seth Jones and Nolan Patrick. It was good to get a win against them. I felt good. Just knowing that was where I kind of grew up in the league and learned my ways, that’s going Tracey’s second season was transitional.

  • The CJFL TOTAL THURSDAY Newsletter
    www.cjfl.net “For all your CJFL Information & News” The CJFL TOTAL THURSDAY Newsletter Brought to you by Issue 3 – Volume 1 "The CJFL gratefully acknowledges the support of the following Sponsors" "The Canadian Junior Football League provides the opportunity for young men aged 17 to 22 to participate in highly competitive post-high school football that is unique in Canada. The goal of the league is to foster community involvement and yield a positive environment by teaching discipline, perseverance and cooperation. The benefits of the league are strong camaraderie, national competition and life-long friends." History of True Sport In 2001, Canada’s Federal-Provincial/Territorial Ministers responsible for sport came together to bring ethics and respectful conduct back into the way Canadians play and compete. They believed that damaging practices—cheating, bullying, violence, aggressive parental behaviour, and even doping—were beginning to undermine the positive impact of community sport in Canada. The first step they took in turning back this negative tide was the signing of what is now known as the London Declaration, an unprecedented affirmation of positive sporting values and principles. The Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport conducted a nationwide survey in 2002, which made clear the important role that sport plays in the lives of Canadians, as well as Canadians’ strong desire to uphold a model of sport that reflects and teaches positive values like fairness, inclusion, and excellence. In September of 2003, leading sports officials, sports champions, parents and kids from across Canada came together through a symposium entitled “The Sport We Want.” Several strong messages emerged from this gathering.

Frazer Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering on May 20, 2005 in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Engineering in Civil and Environmental Engineering ABSTRACT As existing open-air or fully enclosed stadia are reaching their life expectancies, cities are choosing to replace them with structures with moving roofs. This kind of facility provides protection from weather for spectators, a natural grass playing surface for players, and new sources of revenue for owners. The first retractable-roof stadium in North America, the Rogers Centre, has hosted numerous successful events but cost the city of Toronto over CA$500 million. Today, there are five retractable-roof stadia in use in America. Each has very different structural features designed to accommodate the conditions under which they are placed, and their individual costs reflect the sophistication of these features.

  • A Matter of Inches My Last Fight
    INDEPENDENT PUBLISHERS GROUP A Matter of Inches How I Survived in the Crease and Beyond Clint Malarchuk, Dan Robson Summary No job in the world of sports is as intimidating, exhilarating, and stress­ridden as that of a hockey goaltender. Clint Malarchuk did that job while suffering high anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder and had his career nearly literally cut short by a skate across his neck, to date the most gruesome injury hockey has ever seen. This autobiography takes readers deep into the troubled mind of Clint Malarchuk, the former NHL goaltender for the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres. When his carotid artery was slashed during a collision in the crease, Malarchuk nearly died on the ice.
