Hurricanes discuss a bright future at exit interviews while graduates look ahead to pro careers
LETHBRIDGE – Even with the sting of playoff defeat still in the air, there was a sense of optimism at the ENMAX Centre on Tuesday, May 1 as the Lethbridge Hurricanes conducted exit interviews and prepared to depart for the summer.
Lethbridge will return all but three players if they so choose, with only forward Brad Morrison, defenceman Tate Olson, and goaltender Logan Flodell moving on.
Hurricanes General Manager Peter Anholt says when he looks back at the year, he’s very proud of the players and coaches for what they accomplished.
“There were some ups and downs, I think we came into the season with some high expectations and we really felt we weren’t achieving them in the first half of the season. That’s why decisions were made, but full credit to the kids for the way they performed in the second half and in the playoffs,” Anholt said.
