Mike Bourgeois - Cape Breton Tradesmen Major Midget

When did you start playing goalie?

This year is my 11th year as a goaltender.

Do you have any pre-game rituals or superstitions?

Before every game, I run and stretch. Then I throw around pucks, and juggle tennis balls. When I am warmed up, I go back in the room and think about the game.

Who do you admire as a goaltender?

I admire Carey Price. He works hard day in and day out, and always shows up ready to play.

If you could achieve anything in hockey, what would it be?

My future goal is to work as hard as I can and hopefully get drafted into the Q.

"I have worked with Scott since I was about 10, and with the NSGA for 3 years and I love every minute of it. The conditioning sessions are unbelievable.  They watch you and fix the little details that can change your game and make you a better goalie. "
