Years after retiring from coaching youth hockey, the kids Al coached would still recognize him in town and go out of their way to say hello. Because of his dedication to coaching youth players, he helped several of the kids he coached reach high levels in hockey. As well as leading several different teams to championship’s in high level hockey tournaments, as well as local hockey tournaments like the GJHA Christmas tournament.
