Prince Albert Raiders GM Curtis Hunt joined the prohockeypod this week. From day 1, Curtis always believed in for the goodness of the team. Team first mentality. He grew up playing multiple sports and took a tryout in the WHL, thinking nothing of it. Next thing you know, he was drafted to the NHL and would embark on a 9 year pro career before shifting his focus to coaching. After years of coaching Pro and in the WHL, he transitioned to a GM role. Someone like Curtis has a lot of experience in both the coaching and general manager world. I asked him what he looks for in players and picking his rosters, as well as the requirements he tries to have in picking a head coach. He also touched on how Prince Albert has instituted a mentorship program which allows coaches to get their foot in the door, gain experience and see if this could be a good fit for both sides. There is a reason Curtis has been doing this a long time. Hope you enjoy!
