McLlwain hopeful for Senators 94-95 season with young line-up
BY DAVID SCOTT
Expositor Staff
With the 1994-95 NHL hockey
season beginning in about three
months, Seaforth native Dave
McLlwain fords himself as a role
model to younger players _on a team
that finished last place in the 1993-
94 season. The Huron Expositor
recently had a chance to speak with
Dave about his upcoming second
season with the Ottawa Senators.
What does Dave personally want
to achieve this season?
"I think personally you always
want to better what you had the
year before and obviously try to
stay injury -free and have a success-
ful season. As a team I think we
can only go up from where we
were, obviously, and be a little
more competitive game in and
game out. We finished 20 points
behind the next team which is
something you're not really happy
about."
Ottawa is definitely a team loaded
with young talent. The Senators
recently picked up 17 -year old
Radek Bonk who was a star with
Las Vegas in the IHL (International
Hockey League) in the 1993-94
season. He was the third overall
pick in the recent NHL draft in
Hartford. "They thought he might
have been gone by the time we
picked. The talent will definitely be
there," said McLlwain.
"I think confidence -wise we have
a lot of good, young kids as long as
they start realizing you can win
hockey games instead of coming in
with a bad attitude about last sea-
son. I think you can to drill it into
everyone's mind that you are a
good hockey team and you can win
any night. The league is so bal-
anced now that anybody can win
different nights. If the kids get that
confidence they can win. Maybe
they'll carry that on."
What about the San Jose Sharks
doing so well in the NHL playoffs
and surprising everyone with an
expansion team that really didn't
have any superstars?
"I think it's something we can
look at. They did it and hopefully
we can be in a similar type of
situation. They added a few players
that I think really helped them - a
couple Russians that brought some
experience and leadership. I think
that spreads throughout the team.
You want to be as good as the guys
you're playing with. So we'll try to
get off to a good start and try to, be
a little more consistent throughout
the season instead of winning three
and losing four. It's tough to get
anywhere when you're doing that."
How did Dave enjoy his first
season in Ottawd?
"The fan support was definitely
there. They were pretty patient with
us throughout the season. You can
only use that 'we're a young team'
excuse for so long. I'm sure they'll
be demanding a little more every
year. As players you have to have
that demand on yourself as well to
