Ricci immediately installed former Tampa Bay Lightning head coach, Steve Ludzik, as the Ice Dogs' new general manager and coach. Mays was added to the staff through his past dealings with Ludzik. Mays' main responsibility is to train and develop the Ice Dogs' goaltenders. Mays will also play an active role in evaluating goal tenders for future OHL drafts. A former goaltender with the M.M. Robinson Rams Halton and GHAC champi onship team in 1993-94, Mays has extensive experience training goaltenders through his goalie school. Mays has also authored four best-selling books on goaltending. The Ice Dogs are coming off a last place finish in the OHL's central division where the team compiled an 11-47-6 record.
