Tourney Plans

Post by HappyHockeyFan »

Well whats everybody got planned for the tournament, will you be a couch potato, watching every deke and dangle in the comfort of home or the local tavern or will you be making your annual trip to the X to watch in person? Where will you eat or grab some suds between games? I will start off, I will be there all day every day starting Wednesday, for AA I will be in the same seats I have had for 18 years, section 114. American Burger Bar Wednesday, Cossetta's on Saturday, Thursday/Friday will hit the Fanzone. End of day beers at Liffey's ... Can't wait!!

Representing for Section 108, I'll be at the X for all three days. Looking forward to it, though it'll be tough to top last year's tourney.
It's hard to win when you always lose.

Sorry the officials are so poor. Many of these guys do not ref or even youth hockey. Strictly high school.

This is the first complaint about them I have seen. I don't think they have been bad really

Boarding just needs to be called and it isn't much in high school. We call it in youth and college every time.
