The Montreal Militia are heading into S43 under completely new management, after the sudden stepping down of former GM keygan. They were immediately tasked with the S43 SMJHL draft, where they were successful in bringing active talent to the roster. The Militia faced some big losses with players being called up to the SHL, but still appear to have a deep roster that could surprise many. Pavol Pivonka (Seattle Riot) was named captain, with fellow returnees Jeff Brogen (SFP) and Charlie Schieck (SFP) as his alternate captains. A strong leadership core, and a promising rookie group could spell major success for the Militia this season, but they will surely need some luck to along with that. The new coaching staff has been working tirelessly to get everyone up to speed on the new system they’ll be expected to play, and it looks like they’ve got this roster ready to compete, but the SMJHL playoff race is shaping up to be a tight one for S43.
