Confidence is key for young Hurricanes sniper
LETHBRIDGE – Players trickle off the ice, one or two at a time, following practice at the ENMAX Centre.
On this day, Lethbridge News Now is looking to talk to Jordy Bellerive, one of the key pieces of the future for the Lethbridge Hurricanes.
You can hear the unmistakable sound of skates clicking down the corridor, but every time the player comes around the corner it’s somebody else, until, finally there’s only one player left on the ice. When Bellerive does come off, he has to quickly rush to a team meeting, but says he’ll be right back. A few minutes later, the door to the Hurricanes dressing room bursts opens and he walks out with a broad smile on his face, offering an apology for the wait.
Bellerive was taken second overall in the 2014 WHL Bantam Draft, and went on to impress immediately, putting up a respectable 36-points in his rookie season. One year later, he’s sixth in team scoring with 53-points in 65 games, and is fifth in goals with 25.
