Sinclair’s shot, new linemates have led to offensive outburst
Coming into training camp this fall, there were several questions about the make-up of the new Battlefords North Stars roster, especially considering there was a brand new coaching staff and more than 10 player departures.
One of those questions was who would centre Layne Young on the top line, who had proven to be a prolific scorer in his first two seasons.
Entering camp, new head coach Brandon Heck admits he was concerned about that position, based on video he had seen of possible candidates.
And even after MacGregor Sinclair won the top job, Heck wasn’t quite fully convinced, at least not right away.
