My brother was in the mites on one of the Canada teams, one of the teams was easily all nine year olds and was like a all-star team, also having to pay $35 was nonsense. My brother got one of those jersey shirts though they were very nice, they played the supra's green at 8 in the morning at the Purpur for 5th place on Sunday which I didn't get either, the tourney was drawn up very differently, but they won 13-1. I have to say though that American hockey is very different from canadian hockey, the american's are very into it, up here we have the couple of dad's that yell at the kids, down there everyone cheers and I like how the teams in the states all have matching track suits and everything, not even are AAA teams get Track suits and stuff like that. I also didn't like how they had a all-star team in each divison I think, but for sure in the mites that go out and just score as many goals as they can, like 38-0, Just give up at 10. Other than that I kind of liked seeing how hockey is in the states, and it was a pretty good tournament overall.
