MAKING A WINNING TRADITION An Interview With Fargo Force Head Coach Cary Eades BY: PAUL HANKEL | PHOTOS: URBAN TOAD MEDIA On an off the ice, Fargo Force head coach Cary Eades has had a remarkable career. Following his successes on the ice, he began coaching some thirty years ago. Following a successful tenure as head coach of the Sioux Falls Stampede, Eades was named head coach of the Fargo Force. He takes over a squad that, despite two down season, is hungry to return to the top of their league. The Good Life met up with Eades at the arena to chat about his hockey career, his life and his plans for the Force this season. THE GOOD LIFE: You were born and raised in Vancouver, British Columbia. Canada is often seen as one of hockey’s Mecca’s. What made you want to leave one of the most dominant hockey countries to play and coach in the United States. CARY EADES: I grew up in the Vancouver, British Columbia area. I played my youth and junior hockey there. Then, I got a college scholarship and that brought me to this country and area of the country for the first time, and I really loved it here. I love the upper Midwest, and the people and the values that are here. It’s nice to be back in an area that I’ve spent 19 years of my adult life in! GL: Before you began coaching, you played college and professionally, correct? CE: Yes, I played my junior hockey in British Columbia and got a scholarship to play at the University of North Dakota. Eades was a standout Forward at The University of North Dakota. His teams won the 1980 and 1982 WCHA Championships. Following a stellar college career, Eades earned the opportunity to play professionally. However, an injury forced Eades to retire early and shift his attention from being a player to coaching. He returned to the University of North Dakota, where he spent a total of 15 years as an assistant coach, from 1984 to 1991, and again from 2004 to 2012. While there, Eades has the honor of coaching under such UND head coaching greats as Gino Gasparini, Dean Blais, and Dave Hakstol. In between his two stints at UND, Eades was the head coach at Warroad High School, where his teams won three Class 1A championships. He also coached the Dubuque Fighting Saints, out of South Dakota, and led them to a championship in 1991. 21
