Taking your game to the next level is just as important to officials as it is players. Given the numbers that actually make the show or the NHL the fact that Canada has a strong representation at two major events is impressive.

We (despite what some think) put ample time into this national program and I for one am proud to be part of. It is a new side to the game and if you have a passion to succeed the program is set for success. It won’t happen over night, but it will happen.

There are hundreds of volunteers that are in officiating for the right reason and only a few that pretend they do – but in the end they only want to advance what they do.

For those who strive for success they succeed and the bad ones fail and have a short lived career.

To the hundreds that strive for success – keep up the good work. You’ve earned your stripes!

To advance means to triumph and it is with strong gratification that Hockey Canada made the announcement official with the following release.

Hockey Canada is pleased to announce that Chris Savage and Chris DeHaan have been selected to officiate at the 2005 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championship in Grand Forks, ND Dec.25-Jan.4, which will be the first time either have officiated the World Junior “A” pool Championship.

Hockey Canada also announced on Monday the list of officials for the 2004 World Under-17 Hockey Challenge in Lethbridge, AB (Dec. 29-Jan.4).
