Depth, experience key for Lake Placid boys hockey team in 2012-13

LAKE PLACID — The Lake Placid varsity hockey team will look to a strong and experienced core of players skating into the 2012-13 season.

“Lake Placid returns 18 players to its 2012-'13 24-man roster,” head coach Keith Clark said. “With five seniors, Eddie Kane, Keegan Barney, RJ Reid, Ryan Meyer and Kyle Shipman; and four juniors, Dillon Savage, Shane McNierney, Elias Smith and Troy Jacques, the Blue Bombers are hopeful of having a balanced attack.”

Kane returns as the teams top offensive threat, having scored 31 points in 2011-12. Kane will be joined by Barney and Savage as team captains, but will have to wait for Savage to return from an injury suffered while playing football for the AuSable Valley Patriots.

“The team has good team speed and is balanced from the net out,” Clark said. “In what could be a well-balanced CVAC, the Bombers are clearly hoping to contend for the Section VII title and build upon last year’s success.”
