Farewell to Captain Curt, Stally and Nags
The Prince Albert Raiders’ season ended Tuesday after a spirited 5-4 loss to the Moose Jaw Warriors in game 7 of the opening playoff series round, and so did the Western Hockey League careers of the team’s three over-agers.
Captain Curtis Miske, along with forwards Jordy Stallard and Regan Nagy, played their last game with the Raiders last night. All three were acquired in deadline deals, with Miske and Stallard arriving last January and Nagy coming to the fold this year.
“They’re a character group. They helped us a lot,” Raiders head coach Marc Habscheid said. “Stallard came in and played great for us. Nagy, he had a lot of injuries, he was banged up but he’s a warrior. Miske, what do you say about him? He came in as a guy that didn’t play a lot in Spokane, and all of a sudden he’s our captain. Real mature guy and he led the right way and did all the right things.”
Habscheid said it’s hard to see the trio go.
