It all started in Montreal where Anthony Dabarno grew up. He started skating when he was at the age of 4 he started skating for the first time. He was a very fluid skater. As his parents noticed he was above all those kids he was with, so they entered him in a skating contest. In that exact event he won the gold medal pretty easily. He continued his journey to the age of 10 years old as he started his competitive hockey career. In his first game he was playing LD and put up a +3 with 2 goals and 1 assist for a 7-4 win. The coaches of the team noticed that this kid is very talented and needed more challenge. As they continue there games he was averaging 2 points per game. The federation decided to get him up to the double C. While playing with his new team the Tornade de Villeray... He was playing outstanding hockey and no one in his path could stop him. He had some difficulty during his career with some concussions during the age of 13 and some wrist injuries. That never stopped him from reaching his goal to go in the VHL. He was putting 87 points in only 38 games with the triple A team.

HIGH SCHOOL

After all of this his dad was a former QMJHL player. He was a former Left Defenseman like his son and started teaching Anthony how to play defense gap control and all does stuff to be a defenseman. But when he started playing in High school he wanted to try and play in a different role... Center. In his first game at playing his new position he was putting up 78% on the faceoff dot. That is very good numbers for a player who never played center before. His coach played him a lot and wanted to see how he can handle himself. Dabarno was very good in the defensive soon like his dad tough him and his past experience playing that psoition. He also put up 2 goals. One slap shot from the point on a power-play and the other a speedy Anthony passing by the other teams defense and scoring a nice backhand on the breakaway. So he continued playing that position for the rest of the season. He put a a great total of 35 goals and 24 assists for a total of 59 points in 23 games. He was nominated the High School's MVP on the team and in the league. He continued in his graduation year and played even better. Off the ice Anthony always went to the gym to train and practices his wristshot. He was the team captain for that year so he had to lead the team to a cup.

 

THE FINALS

We are now at the finals. Anthony leads by example and opens the score with a wicked wrister glove side. The goalie never had a chance on that one. Next the team facing them... The Cougars tie the game with a deflection form a slap shot form one of there best player. Then Anthony's team The Blizzards gets the lead 87 seconds after. Anthony passes it to an open man for the break away and John Mickey scores. 2-1 Blizzards. We are now in the second period both teams playing there hearts out. The Cougars come out strong. They move the puck very well and they find a player wide open for a one timer. 2-2. A couple of minutes later a Blizzards player couldn't quite get the loose puck so now its a one on one. The Cougars players shots, gets his own rebound an buries it top shelf. 3rd Period about to start and Anthony gives the team a speech. Telling them that this is there last year and they need to get the cup back to the Blizzards. 3rd period under way, Anthony finds space and gets the puck. He dekes 2 defensman and shoots it low glove and scores. 3-3. OT with 2:45 left Anthony gets the puck. He comes in the zone. 2 on 1. Anthony passes it to Mathew who he feeds it back to Anthony and he scores!! The game winner and the Blizzard after 8 years win the Cup. This was one of the best moments of Anthony's life and shows when he can be clutch and be that leader.

GMJHL

After his great career in high school, Anthony continued his journey into the Q league. He was putting up a 1.4 point per game average and dominating once again the league. In his second year he got very hurt during a close game versus Rimouski. And after a big hit he got concussed. He missed 1 month of play time. That didn't stop Anthony form continuing to train hard. He is one heck of a dedicate player.

 

NOW

Now Anthony is in the VHLM and is not putting up numbers that he is used to be. He seems to not be finding the net and maybe its a lack of playing in a much bigger league but Anthony Dabarno is not stepping down and he is ready of facing whats in front of him. With the success of the team he is very excited to go in the playoffs and play his heart out like in high school. He is willing to do anything to win that prestigious cup and being a champion once again. 

Also it has been a tough time for Anthony with the passing of his grand father and Uncle he will be playing for them...
