If you want to run a successful and competitive franchise it's imperative you aren't blinded by the present to forget about the future. Nice to see that in the middle of a huge Playoff battle right now that the Bulldog organization is already working towards next year. Sounds like a couple solid additions. Welcome to the program Paul and Nathan!
Bulldogs Announce Two Big Commitments
The Alberni Valley Bulldogs are very excited to announce two big commitments for the 2015/16 season: 6'4" defenseman Paul Meyer from the Edina HS Hornets in Edina, MN, and 6'4" forward Nathan Dingmann from the Wayzata HS Trojans. Both Meyer and Dingmann played together for the Minnesota Blades Major Midget program.
Meyer is a big, solid, two-way defenseman. This season for Edina, Meyer contribued 17 point in 25 regular season games. Currently after two section playoff games, Meyer sits with 3 goals and 2 assists. Edina HS won the Minnestota state championships last season.
Dingmann is described by Pat Forciea, a former Executive Vice President with the Minnesota North Stars who also served on the NHL Board of Governors, as a massive forward that is athletic and gifted. Dingman's assets include his skating, offensive upside, hockey sense, and a passion and drive for the game. Dingmann is projected to be a quality top 6 forward at the NCAA level.
"I am very proud to have the opportunity to continue my hockey career playing with the Alberni Valley Bulldogs," said Dingmann. "I look forward to becoming a member of the team next season!"
The Alberni Valley Bulldogs are very excited to welcome Paul and Nathan to the Bulldogs family for the 2015/16 season.
The Alberni Valley Bulldogs are hosting two Spring Identification Camps this season: April 3-5 in Port Alberni, BC, and May 1-3 in Osoyoos, BC. There are 10 current members on the 2014/15 squad that were identified in a past Spring ID Camp.
