Manger jbrady83 had this to say in an interview, “Ralf has been an important and key player for my organization. My fondest memory of Ralf will in the season 8 playoffs when he put the team on his back and won the final game getting 3 pts in the 3rd period for an epic comeback that gave us the promotion to Division II. The time though has come for us to say good bye to Ralf and see what the next generation of Beaver hockey players can do. We wish Ralf the best of luck with whatever he decides to do after the game tomorrow. We are hoping if he goes back to Germany to be with family that he will use his keen hockey eye and maybe do a little scouting for the Beavers over in Deutschland. We wish the best the Ralf and appreciate everything he has brought to our team.”
After practice today, all the media were around Ralf getting any last minute interviews in with the famous player. He had lots to say to the scrum of reporters.
“I have enjoyed my time here in Canada, I admit when I was first acquired by the Beavers organization, I didn’t know what to think. My time here has been amazing, I have made some new life long friends in Stephan Engles and Bo Ellingson and have fallen in love with this great country. I am honored to have played for this organization and getting to see my jersey brought to the rafters will be a great end to my career.” When asked about comment made by his manger about the epic 3rd period in the finals of season 8 and possible scouting in Europe, Ralf had this to say. “I remember that game fondly, but it was more of a team effort, we just dug deep, and played the best we could in the 3rd. I am not sure about the scouting, after a lot celebrating during the 100th Calgary Stampede, I might take a look into being a professional bull rider! Lol. But in all seriousness, I am going to sit back for the rest of the season and re evaluate for the next, I would be honored to help this organization in any way possible.”
