VANCOUVER, BC - The Vancouver Giants would like to congratulate Head Coach Don Hay on being named Team Canada's Head Coach for the 2013 IIHF World Under-18 Championship taking place April 18-28 in Sochi, Russia.

"I'm really excited about the opportunity" says Hay in regards to donning Canadian colours once again. "I've had good experiences working for Team Canada, so when this came up I was really eager and excited to accept it."
