BOHC - Best Hockey Club in Canada!
It’s been a great season this year with clean, competitive hockey and our normal BOHC spirit of treating all games as a chance to get on the ice with fellow members and share a few laughs. I want to thank my fellow convenor, Steve Leclerc for all his help this year on and off the ice, and Rob Allan for again running the pool duties with ease. There are many of you who volunteered throughout the season to assist with the tournament, filling in for your captains when called on, those who collect game sheets, and in particular Andre Leclerc who updates our stats. To all of you who make this the best run Oldtimers league in Canada a huge Thank You!!
Congratulations Red Wings
As I write this update, we have one regular season game left, and we can officially now say congratulations to Mike Moes and the Red Wings for clinching the regular season league title with 25 wins and 56 points (so far). We also still have a battle for second place between the Habs, Bruins and Leafs which will go to the wire to make it official. For all the red division teams the good news is we all start the playoffs with a fresh start and tied a ‘0’ points.
Round Robin Starts Thursday, March 20th - Championship Game Sunday, April 6th
The Play-off Run is now ahead of us, and although winning is fun, this is a reminder that we are playing for a T-shirt, there are no scouts in the stands, and we all have a ‘day job’ so keep the same BOHC spirit in mind. Continue to treat all members, refs and city rink staff with respect as we finish up the season. Championship Game Sunday, April 6th – 5:15pm at Appleby Rink 2.
Year End Banquet – Tuesday, April 15th
Thanks to all the teams for selling the Tournament tickets we now have a free division Banquet hosted by the tournament committee. We have booked Hector’s for Tuesday, April 15th with doors opening at 6pm. Book this in your calendar and we look forward to seeing you all there to share a beverage and a few stories. Please let your captain know if you plan to attend so we can get final numbers confirmed.
Thanks again for a great year and good luck to all the teams in the round robin.
Paul, Steven and Rob
