Welcome
TO Lakehead University Athletics
DR. BRIAN STEVENSON President, Lakehead University
I have the privilege of being the President of the University
that houses the Lakehead Thunderwolves. From Midnight
Madness to the roar of our outstanding fans, I am proud of
each of our athletes, coaches and staff – our team.
While many of us take very real ownership of this team, the
Thunderwolves are not exclusively our team. No, the energy,
enthusiasm and power of our Thunderwolves extend far
beyond the rinks, tracks, trails, fields and Hangar to include
the communities and people they live with and play for.
4
Thunderwolves fans can be heard cheering from Thunder
Bay, Orillia and beyond; and for good reason. People are
proud to support a team that trains and plays hard for them.
They cheer even harder when Lakehead’s athletes take
the time to give back by volunteering in our communities
– like helping victims of Thunder Bay’s May 2012 Flood.
Thunderwolves embody the qualities everyone should aspire
to and, thus, raise Lakehead’s profile to rousing heights.
Representing our University in a manner that sets the
standard for sportsmanship and gallantry, and being such
a potent source of school spirit, are just some of the reasons
why our invaluable sponsors and communities rally behind
our team. It’s why your fans paint their faces with our
colours and fill our ears with deafening songs.
I have the privilege of sitting on the Thunderwolves Hockey
Board. I also have the pride and pleasure of being a fan.
I wish you all a successful and safe twelfth season as
Lakehead University’s worthy ambassadors and team.
TOM WARDEN ATHLETICS DIRECTOR, LAKEHEAD UNIVERSITY
Welcome to Lakehead University Varsity Hockey. It is my
sincere privilege to present to you a hockey program that
is designed for excellence. Our coaching staff insists that
our hockey players not only perform with distinction on the
ice but also set very high academic standards. The result is
that many of our student-athletes are consistently named
as CIS Academic All-Canadians, a fact that we are very
proud of. I would like to sincerely thank our many corporate
supporters, alumni and fans for your exceptional backing
over the years; without you all this is not possible. I look
forward to a wonderful year of Thunderwolves Hockey enjoy
the games!
RORY CAVA PRESIDENT, THUNDERWOLVES HOCKEY
Welcome to another exciting season of Thunderwolves
Hockey. As we enter our 12th year as a program it is
important to recognize and thank everyone that has helped
us along the way. 12 years of Thunderwolves Hockey
would not have been possible without our great fans and
corporate partners.
JOEL SCHERBAN
HEAD COACH, thunderwolves hockey
The 2012-13 Thunderwolves’ season will be another exciting
season for our fans. This year’s team features a veteran
lineup consisting of 21 returning players and five first-year
players. Of those five, three of them were OHL Captains,
one is an NHL draft pick with professional experience,
and one has won an OHL Championship. Fans can expect
a hardworking, skilled team similar to last year’s, which
finished second in the nine-team OUA West Division, but
with added experience. Returning on the coaching staff are
Mike Busniuk, Jeremy Adduono, and Colin Zulianello; while
2012 / 2013 yearbook
With all the passion that our community has for our
team comes a responsibility. We have a commitment to
excellence and we continue to work at having the best team
in the country. Our focus as a team is on character, work
ethics and toughness because that has always been what
hockey in Thunder Bay has always been about.
Adam Kates has been added as Strength and Conditioning
Coach. Ron Rost once again returns as Head Trainer.
Fans can expect to see the best OUA hockey they have ever
witnessed at the Fort William Gardens. Three of the last
four teams to compete in the CIS championship game are
from the OUA, and an OUA team (McGill) is the reigning
National Champion. The OUA West had a great recruiting
year and every team has improved. Every game at the
Gardens will be a battle for important points as we strive
to win our division.

CATCHING UP WITH FORMER THUNDERWOLVES
What have you done since
graduating from Lakehead?
Erik Lodge – Defence 2001-2006
(Bachelor of Education)
After graduating and getting married
to my wife Janessa (also a Lakehead
grad) in 2006, we went to play in
Germany for the Hielbronner Falkens
and our team won the league
championship that year. It was a great
experience for us as we travelled
and enjoyed our time in Germany.
We loved the culture and created a
strong bond together in our first year
of marriage. The next summer we
were planning on returning to play
in Europe, but the school division in
Erik Lodge with wife Janessa
www.thunderwolveshockey.com
our home town of Red Deer, Alberta
called and offered me a permanent
teaching position. After reflecting, we
decided to take the new challenge in
our lives. I am now in my sixth year of
teaching and I run a high performance
hockey academy at Notre Dame High
School. I’m also the Assistant Coach
of the ACAC College hockey team,
a mentorship instructor for the Red
Deer Minor Hockey Association, and
run hockey schools in the summer.
In addition, I have recently started
working with Head Coach Joel
Scherban as the Thunderwolves’
Scout in Western Canada, talking
to potential recruits about all the
advantages of going to Lakehead.
We have created a great life together
which includes two beautiful boys.
Kohen was born in October of
2008, and then in February 2011
we welcomed our second son,
Nate. Janessa is now running a very
successful home-based health and
wellness business while the boys keep
her on her toes daily. They are very
busy and will most likely be hockey
players; you might just see their
names on the Thunderwolves roster
one day!
Bryan Duce
Bryan Duce – Forward 2002-2004
(Honours Bachelor of Commerce)
After graduation I stopped playing
competitive hockey and went straight
into the workforce. I was hired by the
Royal Bank in a commercial banking
role. After one year with RBC, I took
a job with the Thunderwolves as the
Coordinator for the CIS University
Cup which Lakehead hosted in
2009 and 2010. I worked with the
Thunderwolves organization for three
years before accepting a role with my
current employer, Tbaytel, where I
work in the marketing department.
2012 / 2013 yearbook
Where are
they now?
completing school assignments at the
same time. I needed to learn how to
manage my time and prioritize my
workload with such a heavy schedule.
I learned to work well with others
and became a strong leader in a team
atmosphere, and this is a huge asset
for me as I move forward in my life.

Jason Lange and family
I have been married for two years to
Ann-Marie Migay. We met during my
time at Lakehead when she worked
as a physiotherapist in the LU Sports
Medicine Clinic. We are fortunate
to be expecting our first child in the
New Year and are very excited to be
starting our family.
Jason Lange – Forward 2002-2006
(Bachelor of Arts - Psychology)
After graduating in 2006, I moved
to London, Ontario. I prepared for
two years to be able to apply and
interview for the London Police
Service, and was successful in getting
hired onto the force. I have been
working as a Constable for four
years now. I didn’t continue to play
hockey, as I made the decision to
start my professional career right
away. Looking back, now I wished I
had attempted to play in Europe for a
couple of years – it might have helped
to pay off my school loans!
My wife Michelle and I just had our
fifth anniversary in August. We have
two children; a boy, Mason, who is
four and a girl, Mackenzie who is
one-and-a-half years old. Mason just
started junior kindergarten this fall.
How did your experiences on
the ice and in the classroom
prepare you for your career?
Erik Lodge
Going to Lakehead taught me
resilience by playing hockey and
2012 / 2013 yearbook
One of the biggest skills I learned
while attending Lakehead was time
management. The demands on the
student athlete are challenging and
it’s easy to get overloaded. Initially
it was difficult to manage a full
course load and remain dedicated
to the sport, but after a month or
two everything became manageable.
I believe my entire hockey career
prepared me for the workforce but
time spent at LU exposed me to many
unique situations and deadlines that
reinforced the need for a strong work
ethic. Many late nights were spent
at the University. I can remember on
more than one occasion, going directly
from the University to the arena for
7 a.m. practice.
it’s great to put the skates back on.
I also love fishing in the winter and
summer, and most weekends in the
fall I am out hunting.
Jason Lange
I still play in the Police hockey league.
It’s actually a pretty good league;
there are lots of ex-professional and
university hockey players in it. I enjoy
tennis and play golf as often as I can,
but I don’t get out much because I like
to spend a lot of time with my two
young children.
Jason Lange
To do well on the ice and in the
classroom you need to have structure,
as well as the ability to multi-task.
On the ice especially, you need a
dedicated work ethic to get results.
These qualities are a must in most
jobs including mine, and I certainly
learned this in my years at Lakehead.
Do you still play any form of hockey
and keep active?
Erik Lodge
I’m on the ice twice a day with my
hockey academy with our elite athletes
in Red Deer. When I’m not on the ice
you can find me at the gym or spending
time with my wonderful family. In
the summer I enjoy playing golf and
camping with family and friends.
Bryan Duce
I took a few years off after graduation,
but I have recently started to skate
once a week in the winter months and
Erik Lodge
What are your best memories
of your years at Lakehead?
Erik Lodge
It’s hard for me to list my “best”
memories at Lakehead because I have
so many that come to mind. In the
2004 playoffs, I scored the winning
goal in the fourth overtime period to
eliminate Western Ontario – now that
was a long game. I remember scoring
against York with only one second left
in the first overtime period during our
playoff run to go to the CIS Nationals
in 2006. Lifting the Queen’s Cup
at the Gardens in front of the best
fans in the country just a few weeks
later was awesome. Going to the

process of that program which I took
a lot of pride in. I hope one day I can
bring my whole family there so they
can see that I have left a mark on that
great organization and that I helped
build something very special.
Bryan Duce
Bryan Duce and Ann-Marie
Nationals in Edmonton and making
it all the way to the University Cup
championship game at Rexall Place
was great. Playing for Team Canada
in the FISU Games in Innsbruck,
Austria was quite an experience.
Most importantly, I cherish all the
friends and teammates I developed
lifelong relationships with while
playing at Lakehead.
Janessa and I both loved our time at
Lakehead and miss it so much.
I miss the experiences shared with
my teammates, coaches and Rooster
(Head Trainer Ron Rost). I miss playing
in front of the amazing crowd that
always treated me so well. I was there
for the Thunderwolves first season,
so I miss being a part of the growing
My years at Lakehead were very
memorable with many moments that
I replay over and over again in my
head. Specifically, I remember being
amazed at the hometown crowd and
how loud and enthusiastic they were,
especially during the playoffs. They are
no doubt the best fans in Canada and
I feel honoured to have played in front
of them. The team has evolved quite
a bit since those early years. We were
a blue collar team that worked hard
and had great goaltending. We earned
every win and even surprised a few
teams. The current team is so skilled,
but the visiting teams are also ready
to play when they step on the ice at
the Gardens.
I miss the everyday interaction with
teammates the most. These are guys
you spend every day with and they
become a second family. I always
knew the day would come when I
would stop playing competitively, but
I can’t say I was prepared for what it
felt like to leave the locker room for
the last time.

When I had some down time, hanging
out at the LU Outpost with the boys
was always fun. I really liked spending
time between classes at the gym,
either working out with the other guys
on the team or playing squash.
That’s what I miss most about my
days at Lakehead – the guys from the
team. I enjoyed going for pre-game
meals, travelling on the weekends for
out of town games, and the everyday
banter at school and the rink.

Stick Around
A simple test can save your life.
Hockey players just never seem to quit. Look at these guys.
Year-round they’re busting out of the house in the dark,
hauling big stinky bags, icing parts they didn’t know existed –
they’re hardcore committed. They come from all walks of life
to meet up on, and off, the ice. Some are at that age where
screening is vital. They’ve had
experience with the “stick test”
and no, it’s nothing to do with the
game. It’s the ColonCancerCheck
kit. These guys have lots of
reasons to stick around and
they’re not shy to talk about it. If
only these dressing rooms had ears.
Don’t take life for granted. Take the test.

THUNDERWOLVES
involved in the community
By John Payetta
The Lakehead Thunderwolves are
Thunder Bay’s team, and the city has
shown the Wolves fantastic support
since the re-birth of the Lakehead
hockey program in 2001. The team
has given back to the community in
many different ways, including player
involvement in community outreach
programs as well as the team’s
associations with various charities.
2012 / 2013 yearbook
Even with a full schedule of classes,
homework assignments, practices,
off-ice conditioning, travelling, and
games, Thunderwolves hockey players
have found the time to get involved
with a variety of causes.
They have gone to schools to speak
with kids about the importance of
a healthy lifestyle including proper
nutrition and avoiding tobacco
products, and have promoted literacy
to their young fans by reading
with them in their classrooms.
Thunderwolves players took part in
the Christmas family skate to help
raise funds for P.R.O. Kids, a program
which helps financially disadvantaged
youth participate in organized sports.
They’ve worked as crossing guards
in conjunction with Dougall Media
to remind drivers to slow down in
school zones, and bagged groceries at
Safeway stores and wrapped daffodils
at TBaytel to help support cancer
research. And that’s just to name a
few of things that the Thunderwolves
players have done.
www.thunderwolveshockey.com
25
The hockey program has also
worked with numerous groups on
Thunderwolves game nights to
help raise funds and donations for
a wide array of charitable causes.
The annual teddy bear toss game
is great fun for the fans, but more
importantly, helps organizations
like the Christmas Cheer Fund,
Dilico Child Services, Children’s
Aid, The Salvation Army, and
the Dew Drop Inn provide plush
toys to the children that need
them. The team has organized
canned food drives supporting
those last two groups, and for the
Shelter House as well. In 2011,
the Thunderwolves donated
$1 to the United Way for every
walk-up ticket sold at the annual
Christmas challenge games.
Some ongoing game night
promotions have been very
successful in raising money for
other great causes. Fountain
Tire and Musselwhite Mine
have donated $30 for every
www.thunderwolveshockey.com
goal the Wolves score at home
games for the last seven years.
The first recipient of this was
the George Jeffrey Children’s
Treatment Centre, and for the
last few years that money has
gone to support the Thunder
Bay Special Olympics. Fountain
Tire and Musselwhite Mine have
donated over $15,000 to these
two groups so far. And beginning
this season, those funds will be
given to Ronald McDonald House,
so make sure you cheer on the
Thunderwolves to keep scoring.
Another popular initiative has
been the special “one-time only”
jerseys that the Wolves have
worn as part of the Thunder Bay
Regional Health Sciences Centre
game night sponsorship. Once
a year, the Thunderwolves wear
unique jerseys, specially designed
to be worn for that game only,
and fans bid on them during the
game through a silent auction.
The winning bidders are then
awarded their jersey after the
game by the player who wore it,
complete with an autograph. All
net proceeds are donated to the
Northern Cancer Fund, and so far
over $10,000 has been raised.
Of course, none of this would
have been possible without the
generous support of the fans.
Well done, Thunder Bay!

KELSEY’S & MONTANA’S:
THE OFFICIAL HOST RESTAURANT SPONSORS
OF THE THUNDERWOLVES
By John Payetta
Kelsey’s Restaurant and Montana’s
Cookhouse are synonymous with
Lakehead Thunderwolves hockey.
In fact, both restaurants have been
corporate partners with the Wolves
since the team’s inception in 2001,
and continue to be the official
host restaurant sponsors of the
Thunderwolves to this day. Claudio
Foresta, Owner/Operator of Kelsey’s
2012 / 2013 yearbook
and Montana’s, felt it was crucial
to be involved with the Thunderwolves
hockey program from the ground
floor. “Since day one, I believed it
was important to sponsor our local
team and ensure that we grow our
sponsorship to a level that assists the
team in many ways,” Foresta said.
Kelsey’s and Montana’s are perhaps
best known for the “puck out of play”
sponsorship. Each time the puck goes
into the stands, there is a short public
address announcement about the
restaurants – and to inform fans about
a related promotion, the ever popular
post-game “two-for-one appetizers.”
Both Kelsey’s Restaurant and
Montana’s Cookhouse are filled with
fans after home games, because they
can bring in their ticket stub to receive
www.thunderwolveshockey.com
two-for-one appetizers for the rest
of the night. It’s not uncommon to
see a group of Lakehead players
having a post-game meal at Kelsey’s
or Montana’s either. Over the years,
Kelsey’s and Montana’s have been
involved with the Thunderwolves
hockey program in many other ways.
At the Fort William Gardens,
Montana’s sponsored the “Hot
wheels for hot meals” trike race
that took place on the ice during
intermission, as well as the
“Montana’s Master Blaster” cannon
that fires t-shirts into the seats.
Kelsey’s sponsored the “Score-O”
intermission promo where a
contestant tries to shoot the puck
into a small opening through a
board covering the net, and even
tossed hot chicken wings (safely in
thermal bags) into the crowd during
the Kelsey’s “Wing Toss.”
Foresta feels it’s imperative to
be involved with programs like
the Thunderwolves which are
vital to Thunder Bay. “Lakehead
Thunderwolves hockey is a
significant part of our community,
and I am fortunate to have my two
restaurants participating in this
program,” he said.
Fans who log on to the official team
website; thunderwolveshockey.com;
can enter the Kelsey’s and
Montana’s “Dinner and a game”
contest. For every Thunderwolves
home game, one lucky person wins a
$25 gift card from either restaurant
plus two game tickets.
Kelsey’s and Montana’s have
been involved with special events
too. During the 2009 and 2010
CIS University Cup National
Championships held in Thunder Bay,
Kelsey’s and Montana’s fed hungry
fans at the “Indoor tailgating party”
in the Fort William Curling Club
adjacent to the Gardens. Montana’s
has hosted a season ticket drive
where the Thunderwolves’ players
helped the regular staff work an
outdoor BBQ as well as wait tables
inside the Cookhouse.
When the Thunderwolves played the
NHL Legends in an exhibition game
in 2006, Kelsey’s hosted both teams
for a post-game meal. With a
restaurant full of fans, Thunderwolves,
and NHL hall of famers, you can be
sure some great stories were told over
dinner that night.
For Foresta, having Kelsey’s and
Montana’s as major sponsors of the
Wolves is a labor of love. “I enjoy
working with the Thunderwolves
staff in bringing our sponsorship to
life each and every year,” he
said. “My restaurant teams know
how involved we are with the
Thunderwolves, and appreciate the
level of sponsorship we provide.”
It’s always easy to tell if the Wolves
are playing at home when you enter
Kelsey’s or Montana’s on a Friday or
Saturday during hockey season.
On Lakehead’s home game days,
the staff will be wearing
Thunderwolves t-shirts to show their
continued support for the team.

The Ugly Truth about Chew
42
There are over 3,000 chemicals
found in spit tobacco
It isn’t smoked. It isn’t swallowed. It
just moves around in a brown juicy
cocktail of chemical sludge that gets
spit out every few seconds. Curious?
It’s smokeless tobacco, also known as
spit or chewing tobacco.
There are two types of smokeless
tobacco: snuff and chew. Snuff is a
fine grain tobacco that often comes
in tea bag-like pouches that users
“pinch” or “dip” between their lower
lip and gum. Chew is shredded or
twisted tobacco leaves that users put
between their cheek and gum. Both
of these tobacco products contain
nicotine, a substance known to be
even more addictive than cocaine
or heroin. One can or puck of snuff
or chew actually contains the same
amount of nicotine as 60 cigarettes!
So what’s the big deal? If you chew
and spit it out, it can’t be as bad as
inhaling tobacco smoke into your
lungs, right? Wrong. Smokeless does
not mean harmless.
The health risks of using chew or
snuff are just as frightening as those
associated with smoking cigarettes.
There are over 3,000 chemicals found
in spit tobacco and at least 28 are
proven to cause cancer. The list of
potential health risks linked to spit
tobacco is very long and starts with:
bad breath, yellow teeth, bleeding
gums, and even worse, cancer of
the throat, mouth and stomach.
Warning signs like sloughing skin,
white bumps or red spots on the
tongue, gums or cheeks, may present
themselves early, or there may be
very few visible symptoms at all. The
fact is, spit tobacco can cause deadly
illness in its users.
Sadly, young athletes start to use spit
tobacco under the false impression
that it is less harmful that using
cigarettes or that the “rush” they
get from nicotine can improve their
athletic performance. Some believe
that they don’t feel part of the team
unless they start dipping, too.
The best thing a chewer can do
for their health is to take steps
now to break the addiction:
Make a plan.
Get support from family, friends or
a health care provider.
Use nicotine replacement therapy
such as nicotine gum, patches
or lozenges. Ask a health care
provider or pharmacist about them
and how to properly use them.
Plan ahead and use substitutes
such as sugarless gum, mints, beef
jerky, sunflower seeds, shredded
coconut, raisins or dried fruit.
Get involved in healthier activities
and establish a new daily routine.
Parents should talk to their kids about
tobacco use and know the warning
signs to watch for.
Want more information? Thinking of quitting? Talk to a health care provider or call the Thunder Bay District Health Unit
at (807) 625-5928. Tobacco free counseling is available and can double the chances of quitting.

East and West Division Champions play one game for the Queen’s
Cup Championship. The highest seeded Ontario-based team will host the
game. Both division champions qualify for the University Cup National
Championships, but the Queen’s Cup champion will earn the higher seed
at the tournament.
