Coach, goalie from Imperial, Sask. on World Juniors team
Only two members of this year’s Canadian World Juniors team are from Saskatchewan, and both hail from the same town of about 350 people.
Both assistant coach Kris Knoblauch and goaltender Connor Ingram are from Imperial, Sask., a town located about 139 kilometres northwest of Regina.
“That’s about all that’s being talked about when you walk into the stores,” Mayor Edward Abrey said. “Everybody’s got their heads together talking about the game last night or the game that’s coming up next.”
Abrey said he knows both Knoblauch and Connor.
