Chris Pronger; Dryden's Olympic Champion

Well this welcome sign to Dryden needs some updating as Chris Pronger brings home another gold medal as part of the exciting final to the Olympic Games in Vancouver against Team USA. Chris played his best two games of the tournament in the semi-final and final game; logging two assists against Slovakia in a 3-2 win and playing a team high 24 minutes of ice time in the final as Canada won a thrilling 3-2 overtime classic. http://www.ctvolympics.ca/hockey/news/newsid=54430.html#crosby+ot+hero+canada+captures+gold

We look forward  to Chris returning to Dryden this summer for our Centennial Celebrations for a couple of weeks; and the Gold Medal will be part of a wonderful homecoming event.(http://www.dryden2010.com/).

As the local media make contact with Chris we will update you on his thoughts about the tournament and just how exciting it was. Northwestern Ontario was certainly well represented in the final with Eric Staal (thunder bay), Mike Richards (kenora), Duncan Keith (fort frances) and Chris on the team. Well done boys; the nation is proud!
