Slovenia Tournament

Feel like I should give a quick update here as we prepare for our tournament in Slovenia. Last weekend we won all 3 games, to give us the Trophée des Alpes. Nice to win, but we know we will be facing still competition this weekend in Slovenia with some Austrian teams there. In the 3 games we won by a combined score of 26-2, as we began to see players emerge from the group with big performances.

We will board the bus today at 8:15pm, and drive all night to arrive in Bled for breakfast and a morning skate. Since the seats on the bus fold into beds, it will be a little easier to sleep than if it were simply reclining chairs. We get started at 4pm tomorrow against KAC Klagenfurt from the Austrian League.

This is an exciting time right now, we will play 3 games in Slovenia with some stiff competition, before returning home for our final pre season game at home against Villard on Sept. 5th.
