Same, obviously disappointing but that seems to be a running theme this year.
Going to the WJC's in Kelowna and seeing Malkin absolutely dominate remains a lifetime hockey highlight of mine. Will never forget it: wins the first faceoff of the game, walks through 3 or 4 guys and rang one off the crossbar. It was nuts watching him at that level.
Yeah, I had tickets the last time it was in Calgary many many moons ago. I hope they give Edm & RD another chance.
I had tickets to the under 18 in RD and it was great. Meet so many NHL GMs and scouts. Kris Draper sat next to my Dad and I, he was a really nice guy.
MB was there and he saw my Dad wearing his Habs hat/shirt as he was passing us in the concourse, he stopped shook my dads hand (mine too).
When life returns to normal I’m thinking of taking the old man on a road trip to the next U18 or WJ it’s not too far away.
