All Us Boys - (part one)

by Bob Wage on Aug 14, 2007 1:22 PM EDT Comment 0 comments

This is a very exciting week for a young group of hockey players. The â€œboysâ€ of the organization have been invited to Raleigh to learn about physical training techniques, motivational tools, nutritional information, and other tips to help them be successful professional athletes. Some of these prospects will make it to the NHL, some will not, but each of these young men is already a success story in their own right. Letâ€™s take a look at each individual.

Tim Kunesâ€¦

Kunes is yet another American born defenseman in the Canes' system! Carolina drafted him in the 5th round, back in the 2005 draft. The New York native is listed at 6'1, 190 LBS, and has a left-handed shot. He played for Boston College last year and had 1 goal with 3 assists. For more information check the links below.
