Hello to all my friends in Weyburn. This is what it's all about. Remember this????

I had the opportunity to attend that Royal Bank Cup back in 2005 in Weyburn. Wasn't that a great tournament for the host team. The Wings had had what could only be described as a horrible regular season. They followed that up by upsetting the top seeded Camrose Kodiaks not once, but twice, including the Championship game. Good Times!!

One of my fondest memories of that tournament was watching the coach of the team from Georgetown, Ontario get booed off the ice. That was a classless team of thugs. They gave new meaning to the term "bush league".

Is the NHL Trade deadline day tomorrow gonna be one with major deals or a bunch of duds? Not sure if my Stars are going to be buying or not. I'm not convinced yet on Brett Hull as a GM. The fiasco that was Sean Avery, led to the Stars having to eat half his contract. I guess if there's a silver lining in their situation with all their injuries, they might have saved enough cabbage to make a trade deadline move.

Wheatkings 4 Blades 3

Milan Kyntar tallied the hat trick for Saskatoon but it wasn't enough as Brandon escaped Credit Union Center with a 4-3 win tonight in front of 8,422 patrons. The win by Brandon closes them to within 6 points of the Blades for first in the East Division. The Wheatkings hold a game in hand and prevented Saskatoon from reducing it's magic number of 3.

Blades goalie Braden Holtby remains 4 wins behind Tim Cheveldae for the most all-time wins by a Blades goaltender. Holtby's total stands at 81.

Curling fans will be able to assume the position again starting this Saturday as the Tim Horton's Brier takes center stage. You can find all the draw and event info here - http://www.seasonofchampions.ca/2009brier/

Maybe I'm the only one that was watching, but, it sucks that Prison Break is going off the air. What series will I take up next?

That's all I got for now. Thanks for reading!
