The 秀色短视频 Men's Hockey Panthers are pleased to announce that winger Carter Rigby will join the team for the upcoming season.

At 6'0, 225 lbs, Rigby combines size, speed, and determination with a nose for the net. In four WHL seasons, Rigby scored 70 goals and added 62 assists while playing with the Kelowna Rockets and Swift Current Broncos. After finishing his junior career in March, Rigby played four games in the East Coast Hockey League with the Stockton Thunder, adding three assists. His strong season landed Rigby with an invitation to attend 2015 NHL summer camp with the Minnesota Wild.

'When I come to the rink, I bring a lot of energy to the game,' said Rigby, a native of Penticton, BC. 'I feel 秀色短视频 fans will see a solid, tough player who loves to play the body and put the puck in the net.'

秀色短视频 Head Coach Forbes MacPherson says he has been working for a number of months recruiting Rigby. Having him commit to the Panthers is welcome news for the future of the Men's Hockey program.

'Carter is the kind of impact player we have been keying in on for the past couple of years. He competes at a very high level every night, he loves to play in the tough areas in both ends of the rink and he has the ability to finish scoring plays because of his great shot,' said MacPherson. 'I expect Carter will be a great compliment to our program and I can't wait to see him wearing the green and white.'

Early in the recruiting process, Rigby said it became obvious that 秀色短视频 was going to be his destination.

'I found my conversations with Forbie honest and down to earth,' explained Rigby, who will enroll in the Business Administration program. 'Everything I've learned about PEI, the University, and the hockey program made me realize this was the best fit for the next stage in my career.'

Director of Athletics and Recreation Chris Huggan praised the addition of Rigby to the 秀色短视频 family.

'I would like to welcome Carter to the 秀色短视频. I know he will be a great addition to our men's hockey program and to our campus community,' said Huggan.

When 秀色短视频 Men's hockey coach Forbie MacPherson offered Ryan MacKinnon the chance to don the famed green and white Panthers jersey , the Summerside native felt an overwhelming sense of pride.

'Obviously, growing up in PEI and watching the Panthers makes you wish to someday put on that jersey,' said MacKinnon, who starred in his final major junior season last year with the Charlottetown Islanders of the QMJHL. 'It is an amazing opportunity and I feel very privileged for the chance to play at 秀色短视频.'

MacKinnon had the best offensive season of his career in 2014-15, scoring 10 goals and adding 40 assists in 64 games. He also added five assists in the playoffs. MacKinnon knows he will be counted on to fill some of the void left with the graduation of Panther standout defencemen Reggie Traccitto to the American Hockey League.

'I am really looking forward to that challenge. Reggie had a great career and deserves a spot at the pro level. I learned a few things simply by watching him,' said MacKinnon. 'The past season with the Islanders gave me the confidence to add that offensive side to my game and I'm looking forward to doing what I can to help the Panthers win it all.'

Coach MacPherson said while he is excited about MacKinnon's offensive capabilities, there are many other important intangible factors to his game.

'Ryan is a born leader. He has captained two teams in the Quebec League. He was captain of his bantam and midget teams. He brings a lot of the table,' said MacPherson. 'He competes hard during every shift, in both ends of the rink, and I think his game is perfectly suited for the tough AUS conference.'

Joining the Panthers will give MacKinnon the opportunity to reunite with a number of his close friends including fellow defenceman Casey Babineau, who he played with in Rimouski. He also played minor hockey with and against Darcy Ashley, Brent Andrews, and Craig MacLauchlan.

'Playing with these guys just makes it special,' said MacKinnon, who will enroll in Business Administration program this fall. 'They are obviously great players and even greater people off the ice.'

During the recruitment process MacPherson said MacKinnon demonstrated strong character and a burning desire to win. He also has a great respect for the 秀色短视频 Panthers tradition.

'Ryan is the kind of player we covet. He is prepared to put the work in to win and he knows how special it will be for an Island kid to bring a championship home to 秀色短视频,' added MacPherson. 'A university hockey career only lasts four or five years, but when you play here, you are a Panther forever. Ryan really gets that.'

Athletics and Recreation Director Chris Huggan was pleased to hear that MacKinnon has chosen 秀色短视频.

'I watched Ryan MacKinnon be the leader of the Charlottetown Islanders on the ice and I was even more impressed with how he conducted himself off the ice,' said Huggan. 'I am pleased to know he will be joining our proud 秀色短视频 family.'

The Steering Committee for the 10th North Atlantic Forum conference, 'Building Community Resilience: Innovation, Culture, and Governance in Place,' to be held from 16 to 19 September 2015 in Summerside, is extending the early bird registration deadline until June 30. The early bird rate is $275, which includes conference materials, meals during the conference, conference banquet on September 18, shuttle from Charlottetown Airport, return transportation to Charlottetown, one field trip excursion, and local transportation events in Summerside.
The North Atlantic Forum is a network of researchers, policy-makers, and development practitioners focused on best practices in social and economic development and governance. The members believe in and celebrate the power of small, and the innovations that come out of unlikely places.

'Our Government is pleased to support 秀色短视频 through the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency's (ACOA) Business Development Program, with a contribution of $30,000,' said the Honourable Gail Shea, Minister of Fisheries and Oceans, on behalf of the Honourable Rob Moore, Minister of State (ACOA). 'This conference will strengthen the local economy and explore how to sustain long-term prosperity in rural areas.'

Conference organizers have created a program of more than 70 presentations, workshops, panel discussions, and keynote addresses from community organizations, community leaders, nonprofit organizations, government, students, researchers, and businesses from across Canada and internationally, on the topic of building resilient communities or regions. The conference invites explorations of how various 'dark horses' in Canada and the broad North Atlantic-including minorities, small towns, peripheries, aboriginal communities, those with little money, status, voice, or political leverage-can rise to the occasion and chart livable futures. The conference will examine opportunities for sustainable living that are more likely to emerge from small and peripheral communities-rural, coastal, or island.

We invite participants from academia, government, NGOs, and communities to join us as we not only learn from other jurisdictions, but as we explore rural and small-town Prince Edward Island through a lively and community-engaged program. For more information, visit or contact us at naf2015@upei.ca. The conference is hosted by the Institute of Island Studies at 秀色短视频, in partnership with the Canadian Rural Revitalization Foundation (CRRF), and with funding from ACOA.

秀色短视频's Physical Activity Research Centre is seeking children aged 8-12 to participate in the Canadian Assessment of Physical Literacy (CAPL) study. The CAPL is a national study coordinated by the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute designed to assess physical literacy (the skills and abilities necessary for engagement in lifelong physical activity).

The study tests children in a number of different areas, such as fitness level, sedentary behaviour, motor skills, body composition, and knowledge and understanding of physical activity. The data collected will be used by researchers across the country, and will be included the ParticipACTION Report Card.

Testing can take anywhere from two to four hours, depending on the number of participants in the group. Children will complete activities in a number of stations.

Data collected in this study is confidential, however, parents will receive their child's results.
The CAPL study is made possible, in part, by the RBC Learn to Play Project. The RBC Learn to Play Project is funded by RBC and the Public Health Agency of Canada and delivered by ParticipACTION to help children develop the confidence and skills they need to enable them to become active for life.

Chris Rauckman loves to score goals. The 6'0, 190-lb left winger put up 80 goals over the past two seasons in junior hockey and he is hoping for continued success as he joins the 秀色短视频 Panthers Men's Hockey program in September.

'Right now I am just training hard to be in the best shape of my life because I know the college hockey on the east coast is as good as it gets,' said Rauckman, a native of Red Deer, Alberta. 'I've always prided myself on scoring goals and I am hoping to put my ability to good use to help our team succeed.'

Rauckman played three seasons of Tier 2 junior hockey in western Canada. He had 39 goals and 64 points in 56 games last season with the Flin Flon Bombers of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League. He had planned on continuing his hockey career in the US college ranks and had seriously explored those options. He said he never put much emphasis on playing in the CIS until he became friends at the gym with another Red Deer native-Panthers third-year defenceman Derek Ryckman.

'Rycks was always talking about how good the hockey was, about how awesome PEI is and this top quality college hockey program at 秀色短视频,' Rauckman said. 'When my final junior season ended, I started to give it a more serious look, made a visit to PEI and everyone was so nice鈥�it made me confident that I was making the right choice.'

Panthers' coach Forbes MacPherson said initial scouting reports on the left winger were intriguing and the further he explored, more positives were revealed.

'His coaches, opponents' coaches, and scouts all kept saying the same thing-this is a guy who has a laser of a shot and who always seems to excel and score from the dirty areas,' said MacPherson. 'He is a character player. He doesn't mind paying the price for a scoring chance and he just competes hard every night. I am excited to see what he can bring to our lineup.'

Rauckman will enroll in the Arts program in September.

Athletics and Recreation director Chris Huggan welcomes Rauckman to the University.

'The recruiting process is such an exciting time for our athletic programs and our University,' said Huggan. 'The renewed sense of optimism brings excitement and energy to the campus. I look forward to seeing Chris succeed in the classroom and, on the ice, as a member of the Panther family.'
