“We are very excited for Trent,” said Alberni Valley Bulldogs’ Head Coach Kevin Willison. “Trent has been working very hard this season both on and off the ice so that he could reach the goals he set for himself. For the short time that I’ve known him, Trent has displayed character and strong leadership abilities making him a great fit for the SAIT Trojans hockey progarm.”
Dorais will be joinging fellow Alberni Valley Bulldogs alumni Sam Mitchell (2008-2011) at SAIT for the 2012/13 season.

We expect Trent to have a positive impact on our team.”
“I’m very excited for the opportunity to play next season for such a well respected hockey program,” said Trent Dorais. “I look forward to reunite with my old teammate and line mate Sam Mitchell. I would like to take this opportunity to thank my coaches, the entire Alberni Valley Bulldogs organization, Tom McEvay, my billet parents Wade and Tammi Nicklin, and everyone in the community for helping me reach my goals.”
The Alberni Valley Bulldogs would like to congratulate Trent for achieving his goal of earning a hockey scholarship. He will be missed in the Alberni Valley but we know he will have continued success with his future endeavors.
