The Trappers came up short against some awesome teams & fierce competition.. JRC won . You win & lose as a TEAM- I am PROUD of the accomplishments this season of the NORTH BAY TRAPPERS & all my TEAM! That is my FIRST PRIORITY- not individual accomplishments- however I was advised that myself & my D partner Grayson Bradley had the best +/- for D pairings for our individual Team Stats when we were on the ice.

Waterloo beat every team but the TRAPPERS. They may have won the tournament, (on a Tourny technicality) & I give them credit .... but they couldn't beat us.

JR A Hockey- NOJHL -French River Rapids - Jan 2022 offered affiliate player (AP) by GM & Head Coach Paul Frustaglio while with the North Bay U16 AAA Trappers under Head Coach Guy Blanchard. Attended practices with the Rapids when schedule permitted.The Playoffs that spring had the Rapids facing the top Seeded Timmins Rock. I played in 2 playoff games, one on the road in a packed raucous rink in Timmins & one at home ice in Noelville. The Rock ultimately prevailed & went on to the divisional JR A Finals. I had a combined +1 rating & had 1 assist vs the Rock. The average age of NOJHL players is between 18-21. The Coach told me I played Strong & Fearless for my age. After the season ended the Rapids offered me a (card) spot as a 16 yr old for the 22/23 Season; JR A Teams only take 2- 16 yr old players. I was grateful for & appreciative, as their GM was 1st class in how I was treated-but due to School, distance & other family & Hockey commitments I was not able to take the offer.
