I have had the opportunity to play minor hockey in Port Aux Basques, coach, and see my sons in minor hockey prior to being transfered. I also know Craig Carter quite well, from a boy to an adult. He has been a minor hockey player, hockey player, parent, coach, and giving back to Port Aux Basques. It shows the non-selfish attitude of those that have went through the minor hockey system in Port Aux Basques, and are trying to give back. The article about the Sam Rose tournament, and Craig Carter go hand in hand, GIVING BACK....Thanks Craig...Keep up the good work!!!! Wayne Law...Dartmouth NS.
