First Showcase

Three or four times this season one of the AAA teams hosts a showcase. This is like a tournament, in that the teams play four or five games in a weekend against the Chicago teams in the league. This cuts down on travel by letting the teams play several games and avoid back and forth driving. Well our first showcase was last weekend and Belle Tire didnt do too bad, Devin did well. He played the two toughest teams, won one and tied the second best team in our league. Due to the coaches rotating goalies, Devin only had two of the five games. Peter Ward was at the showcase and watched both of Devins games, which Devin played very well. He moved the puck alot and was told by many that he is like a sixth defenceman on the ice. For his first year in AAA he is doing very well, having won 4, lost 2 and tied 2. His only losses so far have been against Honeybaked, the number one team in the country. We are hoping that he will start playing alittle more often, as the more he plays the better he gets. Right now he is playing once every two weeks, which for him is not enough.
