Need to see a Trainer?

Lake Placid High School Athletic Department has once again contracted Adirondack Medical Center to serve our athletes with training services.  Dino is at the school on Monday and Wednesday from 2:00-3:00 PM.  Hockey players who are hurt or injured from practices or games should seek Dino's help.  In the past some players have not followed up when recovering from an injury or have waited too long to see Dino after suffering an injury.  Please use this service responsibly as Dino has helped many of players in the past in this capacity.

Community Clean-Up

On Saturday, November 16th our team cleaned the beach area.  Here is a photo of the group on a beautiful November day.

Brendan Shanahan's Speech Induction to Hockey Hall of Fame

Blue Bombers,

Below is the link of Brendan Shanahan's speech for his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame.  Shanahan did it all as a player.  He continues his role in serving the NHL by being the leader of the Department of Player Safety - certainly a difficult position.

Listen to his speech and how he focuses on:

1. Family
2. Team
3. "Brotherhood"
4. What hockey meant to him
5. The others being inducted with him

Bring Your Own Water Bottle

Players,

You need to bring your own water bottle to practice and fill it up on your own.  NO SHARING!

Thanks,

Coaches
