Nathan Churchill's 96AAA Year with Chicago Mission

On May 5th the WHL held it's annual bantam draft and Nathan was selected by the Regina Pats. Nathan was the fourth US born player selected and the first US goalie selected. Nathan had mixed emotions on this selection, as he was told he was going a lot higher, but thrilled on which team selected him. Interesting process indeed. The teams that called and spent hours on the phone with us did not select him and the team we talked to for 30 seconds did. lol. I heard from several teams that there was concern he was going to jump and play NTDP after next season in Ann Arbor. Regina is a great hockey city in the WHL.
