“Let’s Do Something Crazy” with Coach Dick Thompson
Dick and his wife Jeannie said to each other back in 1970, “Let’s do something crazy.” The “crazy” was to pick up and move from their home state of Minnesota to Alaska…or Australia! No offense to the blokes down unda’, but we’re certainly glad they chose Alaska. Hailing from Baudette, MN Coach Thompson played for The Lake of the Woods High School Bears before moving on to the powerhouse University of Minnesota-Duluth. After landing a job at Dimond High School he would assist Head Coach Bernie Simon flooding the rink and drawing up the X’s and O’s. The following year he embarked on a legendary head coaching career at Service High School and would amass 287 wins in 16 years winning multiple Anchorage Cups. Dick was also a key player in the development of one of Alaska Hockey’s historic yet little known clubs, The Alaska Drillers, a high school all-star travel team.
