  1. My friend just saw Toews at the Civic centre in Winnipeg watching the Western Canadian Bantam Championship game, My friend said he was there helping out the scouts, but he forgot to ask him if he's made up his mind or not...

  2. The EGF Pee Wees didn't do very well. We faced Bismarck on Friday evening and lost 4-3 in OT on the main REA sheet, I missed that game as I was at my Mite's game at the EGF Civic Center. On Saturday they faced Carman, MB again at REA and played pretty uninspired, lost 4-2. Sunday they faced Assiniboa West, MB at Gambucci and pulled out a season ending win, 5-2.

    Now my son starts with his AAA team, the '95 Lumberjacks, in Blaine on Thursday in the Showcase Hockey AAA League. He got drafted by this team and they play out of the Schwan Super Rink. This will start 10 practices, 14 games and 3 tournaments within league play and the International Cup Tournament at the Super Rink in late June and early July and Hockey Fest in Alexandria in late July.

    And I agree, $35 was a bit steep. We were in the Fargo Squirt International a couple years ago and it was $25 I think, that is about as much as I think they should charge, even for a whole weekend.

    There shouldn't even be a price! we payed to go into the tournament, and that was a lot of money, so there is no need. Every tournament up here we never have to pay, unless its Junior A or Provincal AAA

  3. 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.
