Oakland, Ca- The Oakland Seals are AsHL Champs again! For the 3rd time in 6 years, the Oakland Seals have captured the AsHL Cup championship. The Seals downed the Eastern Conference Champions Norfolk Admirals 4 games to 1 to seal the deal. "We fought hard all year. These kids never gave up." said coach Brian Trottier. "We knew we had a shot at this thing and it all just came together at the right time. The youngsters carried this team this year. So much to be said for them. Most will have great NsHL careers. It was a great team. " concluded coach Trottier. The Seals added to their titles from 2011 and 2015. "We gave a lot of top tier talent a lot of playing time this year in Oakland. Our organization is very deep at forward and we are reaping the rewards of the Entry Draft and being savvy. What can I say, I draft well." smirked Kopsack. "In all seriousness, a NsHL organization has to have a great mix of youth and veterans within the organization. Without a balance, it's tough to win in the NsHL. Now, we just need to translate this AsHL success to the NsHL." concluded Kopsack. "We have several youngsters graduating this season" added Kopsack. "Bryan Rust, Oliver Bjorkstrand, Nic Dowd,Danton Heinon, and Mattias Janmark will all be pushing for spots in LA next season. It's a great problem to have." concluded Kopsack.
