The University of Calgary's Dinos men's hockey team has done a lot of great things over the years, but one thing the program has never accomplished is winning a national title.
Head coach Mark Howell says he is still baffled the Dinos haven't been able to capture a national title before.
"It's crazy," said Howell. "They've had lots of good teams in the 80s and 90s, and even in the 70s. There's been lots of really good teams coming out of this university and they've gone to the national tournament and for whatever reason haven't won."The Dinos left for PEI on Monday, and will play their quarter final game against the hosts on Friday.
Forward Bradley Schoonbaert, 25, is in his final season with the Dinos and says the players really want to come back with that title."It's going to be fun to play some new teams and see how our game translates against different teams across the country.The Dinos go in as the number one seed at the nationals. Forward Max Patterson, 23, believes the Dinos can build off that success." stick to the process.
"We've been there a couple of times and unfortunately lost those games," he said. "The last time we were there, we played Guelph and outshot them – I think it was 45-17 – and lost 2-1. "You can play great, but it's just a game of bounces, a game of opportunities, and just finding that mindset to be ready for that moment."
