The contents of this message are to be destroyed after reading. I am writing to you from Inuvik, NT, north of the Arctic Circle. I have been drafted here by higher powers to ensure that our borders are safe from Russian invaders. Tensions are high with the situation involving our brethren in Ukraine, but be assured we will hold strong.
While on assignment management has found me a local team to play for and hone my skills. The partnership will most certainly produce a great number of prospects. The Tomcat’s farm system is growing and the potential vast. With my new team things are looking up for their season. They have never had a player come down from the big club. So expectations are high for a successful season. The new club is not that different from your own Tomcats, made up of local law enforcement officers, and Canadian Forces members, makes things feel a bit like home.
The minor league circuit is tough on the body, and mind. We have to travel long distances over roads made of ice just to find opponents. It’s a gritty kind of play here, old time hockey I guess, but that’s why our GM though it would be best for me to come here and grow as a hockey player. And hopefully find a solid player of two that the Tomcats can pick up.
Aside from the hockey, life has been great to the Oglethorpes. We are settling into our new accommodations, and work life. The people here are very warm. They are used to people coming and going, and have a motto “You’re here for a good time, not a long time.” I hope this holds true as I miss the days of suiting up in my Tomcats sweater and hitting the Kupusta Kow Floor running. Leaving everything out there, only to be rewarded with a cold beverage and some quality time with the best group of fellas you’d ever meet. So until things settle down I will remain here and ensure that our nation stays free. I hope to one day be back in black, and I will be playing my heart and soul out, in the hope that I can once again earn a spot on one of the greatest teams of all time.
TOMCATS FOEVER!
