Head Coach Danny Hughes Gregory is a strong stay at home D-man with good co-ordination and he can move the puck well, he has a great shot, likes to play physical hockey and if he continues to play the way he can he has a very good future ahead of him. I am looking forward to working with him again for another year.

He is a great forward with great hands and a very quick skater I am counting on him this year to put up a lot of points for the team.
He has great attitude, is good to have in the locker room, and is a fans favourite and one of the nicest people you can meet on and off the ice.
