Nathan Thomas comes home to Swift Current to talk to the high school. Being only a year removed himself he still recognizes most the students still there. Many of the kids looking up to him like he is there Hero. Nathan now having a full season in the SMJHL under his belt was excited to come back to his former high school and tell them all about his experience. Of course the highlight being that he was drafted 55th overall in the SHL draft! How it was a busy off season with being drafted to Texas only to be traded to San Francisco. It has been a crazy off season for everyone! Knowing that he was coming back down to Maine he is looking forward to expanding his role not being a Rookie and to continue his journey to playing the SHL.

Overall the speech is taken very well by the students and faculty Nathan even donated a signed game worn jersey to the school to be auctioned off to help raise money for the school. Most students leave the speech with the thought that they might be able to be the next one taken in the draft.
