This is a good motivational story on continuing to work hard. Kostka was cut by Steve Horner in Minor Bantam, but continued to work and made Steve’s Bantam team. Then he went undrafted in the OHL Draft which saw 7 players drafted from that Raider team into the OHL. He also was never drafted into the NHL.
Shows that you can get cut or not get drafted don’t mean the end of a hockey career.
As a side note, that Raider team ended up losing to the Corey Perry led Peterborough team which won the All-Ontario that year.
