UAH

Some young hockey players from Ontario have returned home from Europe after being bilked out of $3000. You have to feel bad for those kids, 3 grand is a lot to shell out. Canada improves its Ivan Hlinka record to 2-0, as IC favourite John McFarland tallies twice while Canada doubles the Swiss, 6-3. Lets hope they can keep the momentum up, Team USA also looks good. The Hockey Observer has an interesting post about non-North Americans and the Stanley Cup. Sean Burke, Kan Daneyko and Ron Duguay have been added to CBC's Battle of the Blades. This should be worth watching. Do the Senators need a jersey switch? I love that throw-back look. Taking Note tells us that former Shark Jeff Friesen has signed a tryout deal with Eisbaren Berlin. I always wondered what happened to him. He looked like a world beater in junior. Goon's World has a few articles dealing with UAH and the CCHA.
