Such a diverse team, Runhart considers the Generals like the Mighty Ducks
Shaun Gregory
Postmedia Network
The Seaforth Generals are comparable to
Walt Disney's D2: The Might Ducks movie - a
hockey team compiled from all stretches of the
nation and the world at that. The near identical
circumstances of budding from such diverse
upbringings are beginning to illustrate the
team's record.
Nevertheless, the team is adamant in their
determination to be successful in the new pay -
to -play league trademarked as the Canadian
Premier Junior Hockey League. This athletic
association focuses on the players furthering
their career in hockey at an academic stand-
point, potentially leading to a spot on a post -
education team. The cost to participate is about
$5,500-$6,000 a year.
Unlike the hit Hollywood film, the newly
formed Generals didn't have the chance to play
together, so there was no secret weapon on the
ice resembling the "Flying V." But as you can
see by their trending hash tag "gensarmy," the
tenderfoots have a few tricks up their sleeve. It's
only been two months that they have played
together as a unit, and as time progresses and
more positions are filled, the team is sure more
wins on the board will follow.
"They are from all over; we learn a little
They are from all over; we
learn a little about each other
everyday."
— Seaforth Generals' coach
and owner, T.J. Runhart.
about each other everyday," stated their coach
and owner, T.J. Runhart.
Most teams in the CPJHL are at their full
capacity of players filling up four lines; Runhart
said the Generals are at three full lines, a short-
age that is leaving the boys tired and is a "huge"
factor revolving around their 1-15 record.
"We really turned a corner about two weeks
ago," commented Runhart referring to when
the Generals won their first game October 21
against the Norwood Nemesis.
Realizing that a successful squad must click
on a frozen surface from constant drills in prac-
tice and an incalculable drive, Runhart recog-
nizes the off -ice relationships are just as imper-
ative if they are going to be triumphant in
junior hockey. On November 5, the Generals
headed to Stratford Ont. This outing involved
no pucks or ice skates; this trip was more of a
recreational day for the boys as they went
bowling.
"We do a lot of this team orientated stuff office
as well" said Runhart.
The organization encourages the players to
build camaraderie, however Runhart indicated
that of late they accomplish this task on their own.
After games until their curfew, which is roughly
midnight, "I guarantee you'll find most of the
team sitting for an hour or two at Tim Hortons.
Facilitating this bond, most of the Canadian-bom
players attend Central Huron Secondary together.
As Seaforth's latest hockey team closes in on
the halfway mark of the season with a winning
record theywishwas better, they need to remem-
ber their elders that share the same ice were in the
same predicament at one point in time as well.
After a franchise transformation from the
Goderich Flyers into the Huron East Centenaires,
the WOAA Senior AA group managed to onlywin
one game out of 23 contests.
To end the slump, the Generals have signed
forward Mason Rees from New Zealand. He
comes fully prepared with an impressive resume.
The five-foot seven, 160 pounder has recently
been selected to represent his nation in the 2017
IIHF World Under -18 Championships, Division

The Seaforth Generals are having a difficult time
in the new league known as the CPJHL, however
they remain positive as more players are being
signed in the future.
III Group Ain Taipei City, Taiwan.
"We are excited to add skilled players like
Mason, who can play both wing and defence.
Mason will be joining the Club in a couple weeks
when his season is over in New Zealand,"
explained Runhart in a recent Facebookpost.
The team has about six or seven spots left on
the roster and Runhart cited, "they are adding
quality players every week."
