Hawgood comes with a list of amateur and professional credentials to guide the Storm with his puck possesion, flowing style of play... the style that made him the Hall of Fame player for Blazers during the 1980's.
Hawgood says... "It's such an honour to be awarded this job. The Storm are clearly the best team in the league nad for Barry to show confidence in me is an honour" "it's a special opportunity with Kamloops hosting the Keystone Cup".
Also present at the press conference were club owner, Barry Dewar and newly appointed Asst GM, Gary Donaldson. Look for Donaldson to be a front line guy, helping the organization where ever required. You can also expect Donaldson to be a regular colour commentator on this years internet broadcasts. Gary has done colour for the Kamloops Blazers in the past.
Barry Dewar, a hands on owner, is committed to the community approach of hockey development, including staying tight with the Blazers. "the wealth of experience that Greg brings to our organization is invaluable" Dewar said. "We're very happy to have someone of Greg's stature involved with our organization. We're excited to continue to have a member of the Kamloops Blazers alumni (both past co-coaches Ed Patterson and Steve Passmore are Blazer alumni) involved with our franchiseas we continue to strengthen our relations with the Blazers."
The Storm camp opens Aug 29 and there are approximately 50 players invited to attend so far. It is expected that the opportunity to play in the Keystone Cup will attract some quality players from around Western Canada. The training camp will be help at the Mac Island Sport Centre.
