The Hockey Saga returns.

Hi everyone and now it's almost hockey season again so I am starting my blog again to give a viewpoint of hockey in the prairies. Remember this blog is based on my opinions and experiences travelling to different hockey towns in Saskatchewan. I will keep a diary of pictures and stories relating to those experiences. This season we are based in Swift Current, where Sam is playing for the Swift Current Legionnaires, the team plays in the SMAAAL which is considered the top Midget hockey league in Canada...teams in the league are the defending Telus Cup Champs Notre Dame Hounds, Saskatoon Contacts, Prince Albert Mintos, Tisdale Trojans and Regina Pat Canadians to name some of the teams in the 12 team loop. Swift Current is a town of approx 16,000 set in a hilly region in South East Saskatchewan, more cattle and oil country than wheat. The town is clean, quiet and has a large population of Mennonites in the region. The Rowdies are located in a nice 3 bedroom apt, within walking distance to the Casino and also close to the High School and Iplex Ice rink. Hey and the golf course is a couple blocks away also, so life is pretty rosy at this particular time. Stay tuned for more posts down the road accompanied by photos.
