Bruins: Minor Hockey Week 'Midget A' Champions!!!!

This is does not pertain to the Flames but does pertain to hockey so...

For those of you who know me, know that I have been working in my spare time as a Trainer for the NWCAA Midget A Bruins for the 07-08 season. We've had our ups and downs throughout the year but the boys came through last week and worked their asses off as a team to become City Champions in the Esso Minor Hockey Week Tournament!

After a devastating 9-2 loss in the first game of the tournament to the Royals Gold the team regained their composure and battled back to win 6-2 vs the Blazers and a 2-0 win vs the Royals Blue to take them into the Finals. In the final game they played the Blackhawks who built a quick 2-0 lead in the first. But with increased teamwork and a step back to simple basic hockey the boys scored 5 unanswered goals in the 2nd and 3rd period to clinch the tournament and title of Esso Minor Hockey Week Champions! Way to go Bruins! With only 7 more games left in the season Sutter Cup is just around the corner and everyone should fear the Bruins now!!!!
