coppercanuck Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Interesting to see Ian Greedy from NS on the Ottawa Fury roster for 2012. Of course the NSSL changed the website for this season and the statistical archive is gone (thanks) but I thought he was a fairly good goal scorer in that league. It will be interesting to see how he fits into a PDL squad. Also noticed Will Beauge who played with Capital City last year and Anthony Di Biase formerly of Hamilton Rage. Is this a possible player development path, senior to PDL or CSL to PDL? Or is this just a good club to be on to get noticed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coppercanuck Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 Ben Ur, formerly of Halifax Dunbrack has played one game in net for the Toronto Lynx at the Chicago Inferno. 1-0 loss but another "senior" player now with a PDL side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soccerpro Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Theres a couple N.S university aged players playing pdl ball in Ontario. I don't think it really leads to anything bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringBackTheBlizzard Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Maybe once a generation or so one of these guys will be able to do what Ante Jazic did within the sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzAndSting Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Maybe once a generation or so one of these guys will be able to do what Ante Jazic did within the sport. I was thinking about that this week, Ante playing professionally and starting at LB against the US and Cuba, and where he's come from. It's an amazing story not replicated in many other sports. Cory Cross, Joel Ward, Mathieu Darche of the NHL, Vaughn Martin of the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an amazing story not replicated in many other sports. Cory Cross, Joel Ward, Mathieu Darche of the NHL, Vaughn Martin of the NFL. Ante played 1 year at Dahousie University. He went on a vacation to his family homeland of Croatia. Unknown to him, his uncle, who lived in Croatia, set up a trial for him with a Croatian side when he arrived. He made the squad and the rest is history. To say it's once a generation is putting it mildy. He was good enough growing up in Nova Scotia, but had no way to get seen by pro teams while living in Halifax (like so many other young Canadians).

Ahhhh... I thought he was a 4 year Canadian University player. Well he's not in the same boat as the others I mentioned but it's still a great story and an inspiration for young people to not give up. You never when you'll get a break!
