Letter From OHL Commissioner David Branch

The following letter was received by our Assistant Coach, Kevin Hess, who is the Midwest United States Coordinator for Ontario Hockey League Central Scouting.

It was sent by David Branch the Commissioner of the Ontario Hockey League and the Head Coach of the Whitby Wildcats who we defeated in the quarterfinal qualifying game 3-2 in overtime.


Kevin:

Congratulations to all your players and staff on an outstanding Silver Stick Tournament in Whitby over the past weekend.

I was at the final game yesterday against Elgin and of course the game could have gone either way and it was certainly a thrilling Championship Final Game.

The level and quality of play, passion and character shown by your team was truly magnificent.

Please express my sincere congratulations to everyone.

Looking forward to hopefully having the opportunity to connect with you and to possibly play against your team once again.

Best Regards,

David Branch
Commissioner
Ontario Hockey League
