"the ice and a Scheduled run outside every week with a move inside once winter sets in. . The team-will be under the guid: ‘ance of anew coach — several Terrace prospects have come forward — but Carlsen didn’t want to name them. In just their second season in the Central Interior Hockey League last year, the River Kings finished in second place overall and took on the province’s top squads for the first time at the Coy Cup. ° _ With a’ few changes, maybe the boys can dethrone the Ice Demoris - from top: spot in the league, if not the new western division. that both ‘squads now belong to. “7m hoping to bring it all here this year and win it all,” says Carlsen. The coaching staff. ‘may consist - of multiple people to cover the away. games when other commitments may prevent a coach from travelling. He’d like to see ‘the return of Thursday night games during the course of the season. Carlsen anticipates a lighter sea- - son with one weekend night game rather than games Saturday night and Sunday morning. This way, fans will see a top effort from players Satur- day night. Sunday afternoon games have not been a success throughout the league with fans and with play- ers, tired and ‘often. banged up from — the previous night’s game. Carlsen said new players are wel- — come to attend training camp, tenta- tively scheduled to begin Sept..6. Carlsen has been training with the hope of securing his goalie position again this year. He knows he’Il have competition if some of the netmind- ers in town try out. Brandon Green, who played i in the _ Tec league last year, was quite im- pressive, he says. Plans to welcome fans back in-— clude the possibility of a shoot-to-win for the chance to win a car, Carlsen says. There may be more for the fans in the stands, too, with the possible — return of the River Kings mascot af- ter its successful debut last year. | oth seas your current job? aybeit tmeyouc angejabs— J ~ first Skeena River Challenge 20 years ago.
