Tournament In The Soo



Well this past weekend was a huge success, the Motor City Metal Jackets won it all in the Championship game. We were in Sault Ste. Marie, Canada for an international AAA tournament. Four regulation games were played and Devin played two, tending goal against the toughest team, who we met up again with in the championship game. His first win was 3-1 with their only goal coming at the end of the third period when our kids coughed up the puck behind our net with a minute left in the game. He got MVP for that game. In the championship game he got his shutout, 3-0 and again was MVP. We had two good teams with good competition, the other two teams were pretty weak and we won those easily. We ended up with five wins and a tie, the tie had the backup goalie in the net. One of the referee's, who reffed three of Devins games kept telling him how good he was and that he expected to see his name in the OHL draft next year. Just what the kid needs to hear, considering we dont want to go that route, though he does. Well we will see where it all leads.
