Own The Moment
Minneapolis Storm Bantam A's leave a lasting impression at Bauer World Hockey Invitation in more ways than one. The Storm tied for first place in pool play having lost to the Hamburg (NY) Hawks in the first game, then beating the California Titans and Redford (MI) Kings in convincing fashion in subsequent games. The Storm tied the Toronto Aeros who advanced to the Championship round through the tie-breaker rules.

The Storm left an indelible impression on the tournament, not only through our Bantam A's strong play and outstanding sportsmanship, but also, quite literally, as the "face" of the touranment itself. Featured on the cover of the tournament souvenir book is the Storms own Connor Lawler focused on a faceoff, as well as the Storm's shield jersey in the background image...all part of the Bauer "Own The Moment" campaign.

Way to go Storm!!"

Nice for Minneapolis.

Just curious, since that is a birth year tournament, which age group did they play in?

They played in the 98 AAA (not Elite) level.

They may have had a special allowance, as a community based Minnesota A team, to use some 97s.

I believe this is their third year of going to the tournament. Cool way to start the season and they did pretty well.
