Aside from standing behind the bench and sitting in his chair in the Hockey Canada office Lucas has been involved in many development camps worldwide. Lucas has traveled and taught from Europe to Arizona and everywhere in between. He's instructed 4 year olds at Nike Skills Camps to blowing the whistle at the Peary Pearns 3 on 3 NHL Conditioning Leagues. Lucas looks forward to his new challenge with the Dallas Stars Selects. He is very excited with the outlook of both his teams. "I am very fortunate and thrilled to join the coaching staff of the DSS Program. We have a great group of coaches in place and a great environment to develop young men", states Coach Reid.
