Storm name captains

Press Release

The Guelph Storm announced today that they will start the season without a captain, opting to name six assistant captains for the campaign that gets underway on Thursday night in Windsor.

Cody McNaughton, Kyle Pereira and Matt Finn will be the assistants at home while Frank Menard, Stephen Gaskin and Brock McGinn will don the "A" on the road.

Head Coach Scott Walker commented, “We put a lot of thought into it. We’re a very young team so we thought we’d go with captain-by-committee and see if one of these players grows into the role."

On Friday night at the Sleeman Centre, McNaughton, Pereira and Finn will make their debut as assistant captains for the 2011/12 Home Opener against the defending OHL Champion, the Owen Sound Attack.
