Jeb Goddard found a
home for the upcoming 2008-09 season as he makes his
commitment to the Walpole Express of the Atlantic
Junior A. Hockey League today. Goddard who played a
key role in the Hurricanes inaugural Jr. B season last year
will be playing for former NHLer and now Head Coach Mark
Kumble. Mark is looking forward to having Jeb next year
and feels that he will play a major role on the blue line
for the Express.
Goddard will be
heading north for training camp mid August and is looking
forward to playing for coach Kumble and gaining some
experience at the Jr A. level. “I am really looking
forward to next year and the opportunity that the Express
are giving me. Playing for the Hurricanes and Coach Ray
gave me the knowledge and experience to play at the next
level and I feel I am ready to do that,” say’s Jeb.
Jeb will be
competing against former teammates John McGinnis,
Jake Ninko (Cyclones), and Matt McClellan
(Bulldogs) next year as they all will be entering their
rookie season as Jr. A. players. “The entire Hurricane
organization wishes these young men the very best and we
look forward to watching them play next year,” say’s
Head Coach / GM Shawn Ray.
