S55 PT #1 - Back To Where It All Began
#44

Option A:

Dom Montgomery went back to his hometown in Michigan where he went to middle school before getting drafted by the Halifax Raiders. He's not the most energetic or inspiring speaker in front of a crowd larger than the locker room, but he had a lot to say to the kids. He told them about his journey into professional hockey, what it feels like to leave home and have to make a new family of teammates wherever you are in the world. He expanded on his coming out experience in the J as bisexual and how the league/fans reacted, the good and the bad, but mostly good and how he doesn't regret anything. He also talked about preparing for whatever happens - whether best friends get traded to new teams, whether your old SMJHL team moves down to Maine, and also what it has been like to play for nearly ten seasons on the Pride and move to Boston where his partner's family lives and how the Wolfpack was his SHL team growing up. He used a PowerPoint for the speech part and then they did a quick photo op followed by a scrimmage game for the hockey team to use their new equipment that Dom donated to the school along with a bunch of new computers for the school library.
