Congratulations!
I would like to thank all of the players who came to tryouts for their outstanding work ethic and efforts to make the team. The toughest part of being a coach is having to omit some very worthy candidates from the final roster. To those that are not on the list below I encourage you to keep working as hard as you did at tryouts for me and come back and contend for a spot on the team next year.
Congratulations to the following players who will make up the roster of the 2014-15 Lambton Sting Minor Bantam hockey club.

Tryouts are over but this is just the beginning. Every single player on this team has something to prove: to others and to themselves. Some of you endured a couple of very trying seasons with this organization. Others were not given the opportunity to show what they could do at the AAA level either by this organization or another one. That is in the past. This is a fresh start, a new beginning for everyone.
Each of you was selected because I saw the talent and the work ethic that you are capable of displaying on the ice. You have proven to me that you are a AAA player. The time to prove it to everyone else starts now.
