CANADIAN HOCKEY CLUB | Maple Leafs | BOYS

Jacob has played in our organization for the last 3 years. He is a quiet individual but speaks volumes by his actions and hard work on the ice. Jacob not being a big player is often knocked around by larger players yet never retaliates. Just does his assignment and moves on.

Over the last season, he has developed his body to be a strong player and now the big boys bounce off of him a he pursues his assignment.

When I first met him, I told his father that your son is like the legend JEAN BELIVEAU and we gave him #4. The young man has honored this number and played and behaved in the same manner as the legend Beliveau.

I could not be more proud than to honor Jacob with this prestigious award as he has exemplified the image of Mr. Baker and will motivate him to continue pursuing excellence in his hockey career.
