Any of you Fredericton fans heading to PEI for the game on Wednesday?
There was a player last name MacDougall that played for another CIS hockey team either last year or the year before. Does anyone know who he is and what team is plays or played for?
What are your predictions for the AUS 1st and 2nd All Star Teams and the All Rookie Team?
Will the selections be based on points alone or will all round play be taken into consideration? Some of the top scorers don't seem to have been that effective at even strength.
Which deserving players will be left out?
Also, make sure to vote on the All Decade Team for the 2000's at www.vredshockey.com/vote....lots of tough choices to be made there for sure.

I have to say that I'm surprised at the low voter turnout for this decade - thought the fans would be all over this decade.

Pretty interesting mess they might have there to say the least, but I don't know if they would be able to hold the game at the AUC since it appears the ice is out that day because of graduation stuff the day or two before, although I am sure they could get it back in place in time.
Encaenia is on the 16/17 this year.
I thought they had moved graduation to the Currie Centre? (can't spell it any other way, sorry) That would make the AUC available.
They could still have the ice and melt it over night on the 15th, dry the floor and have the stage and chairs installed. Anything is possible with a paying customer and Overtime pay. It's not like grad setup is very complex.
Joining Randall at the May induction will be retired pro baseball slugger Matt Stairs, hockey/baseball standout Darrell (Dag) Seymour, track and field officials Rick and Margie Stocker and the 1997-98 UNB men’s hockey team.
Dax MacLean, speaking on behalf of the ’97-98 UNB national championship team, said he’d received many emails from his former teammates — all thrilled that they’d be honoured by the city’s sports community.
“I do think it started a tradition at UNB,” said MacLean of his team’s national championship, which was the first for the V-Reds hockey team.
“There were a lot of traditions before that too. We like to think we helped get it to where it is today.”
MacLean, who’s a part of the organizing committee for the upcoming Canadian Interuniversity Sport men’s hockey nationals, which kicks off at the Aitken University Centre next Thursday, said this year’s V-Reds are looking good heading into the University Cup.
“I think they’ve got a lot of depth,” said MacLean, who played four seasons with UNB. “They don’t seem to be complacent at all, from winning last year. There are a lot of new guys, and that’s always nice, to push everyone else.”
With the Delta undergoing renovations, the dinner and induction ceremony will be held Saturday, May 5, at 6:30 p.m. at the Fredericton Convention Centre.
Tickets are $75 ($50 for alumni members of the Wall of Fame) and are available at MacTavish for Sports or any Fredericton Sports Investment member. For ticket inquiries contact Tim Gillies at 458-3180 during the day.
