Last team to hit the ice on Monday from the four teams was the Men's U18 team at 20:35

Coach Glen Williamson and his staff are getting ready for the U18 Division 1A world championships that will be in Debrecen from April 12th through the 18th. In preparation the U18 age group will be participating in two 4 Nations tournaments in Asiago Italy and Debica Poland.

Up until now this age group had been split into the U17 and U18 just because of the large amount of players that are making the cut based on skill level. Starting with this tournament the two will be looked at strictly from the skill standpoint with an A and a B team.

The rosters will be set for the two tournaments on Tuesday.

“Since the start of the season we have been going with two teams at U18 and one at U17, right now we have switched over to having an A team and a B team, this is based on skill level where guys will be able themselves back up to the A squad. We have had this luxury because of the program that has been installed in the past couple of years. This camp and the two tournaments will be used to see who is on what squad.” said Glen Williamson
