Halifax Raiders - GM Address - King - 12-09-2018 I'll try and keep this short and sweet. 1. New Brand The Halifax Raiders have been in the SMJHL since S25. Entering out 20th year anniversary we're excited to reveal an update to our brand. The maritimes are Canada's best kept secret. The scenery is majestic, the population is warm and welcoming, the Maritimes exude class. There's nowhere I would want to GM a team more than in the Maritimes, and particularly Halifax. The Raiders brand can be interpreted in different ways. Vikings are a different form of raider, and the first Viking settlement in North America was in the Maritimes. So we'll be staying close to our original colours, but changing the yellow to a gold, and adding another shade of grey.
Home Road 2. Team mandate Here I want to stay brief, cause there's other things I want to cover. But first and foremost I see the SMJHL as a developmental league. It's purpose is to produce SHL talent. As long as I'm the GM of the Raiders this will be the goal of this franchise. I think if this is our goal and focus the wins and championships will follow. I want to build this thing to the point where SHL GM's feel extra security when drafting players who've gone through our system because we've built a track record of developing quality SHL talent. 3. First hire I'm humbled to announce my first informal hiring as GM of the Raiders. Jon Ross (@JR95) will serve as the Senior Advisor for the Halifax Raiders, in the upcoming seasons and beyond. JR is one of the great hockey minds in the SHL. I don't know if there is anyone better at getting the most out of there roster and putting players in a position to succeed. All major decisions in terms of trades and drafting will be run by JR, and he'll be mentoring me as I get my footing as a GM in this league. The city of Halifax and the east coast is very lucky to have him. Once our LR situation is sorted out he'll be invited to join. 4. Applications for Co-GM open I'm also ready to open applications for Co-GM. What I'm looking for is simple.
Please PM me or message me on discord with your application. 5. Next steps I have assessed the team's current state and have a plan going forward. I'll make that clear to the fans shortly. For now there is a minor LR matter to sort out, and then we'll begin reshaping the team. RE: Halifax Raiders - GM Address - iamslm22 - 12-09-2018 Congrats man!
