Kevin Bieksa has been named Captain of Team Canada representing at the World Championships. Kyle Turris and Jason Chimera rounding out the Alternative Captains.
His first leadership role was to lead the stretch at practice this morning. So, what did Bieksa make his team do? He had them making snow angels on the ice before they focused on the game ahead. Nice. Keeping them loose at practice and focused at game time.
I am so happy and proud that Bieksa finally got the recognition he deserves by Captaining Team Canada. Any Canucks fan can tell you that he has the Heart of a Canuck. The heart and soul of the team. His passion and leadership has been prevalent with the Canucks over the last few years and it's obvious that he's a natural born leader.
Jason Garrison and Alex Burrows are also on this amazing journey with him. Garrison is blogging on the Canucks wesbite of their adventure over seas. Make sure you read it.
First game is on Friday morning 6:30am on TSN vs France. Go get'em Juice!
