So clearly it is easy to get distracted in the summer months!
So much has happened since the last time I was on here. Not only did the Canucks NOT win the Stanley Cup, but I converted to a Winnipeg Jets fan from the 'Nucks.
I will make this entry fairly short for no other reason than that!
As it stands, so far I will be the play by play voice of the Whitecourt Wolverines for the 4th season, beginning in September. We have hired Gino De Paoli from our sister station in Melfort to share the duties with me. Jordan James took a gig in Dawson Creek with their TV station. You can check out his blog on the right side as "The De Paoli Debacle."
The Wolverines announced this week that Marc Chayer has taken over duties as the President of the NWJHL, in place of the outgoing Al Spence. Whitecourt will also host an AJHL exhibition game between Spruce Grove and St Albert on September 4th. Barrhead will host Drayton Valley and Spruce on August 31st.
And another note regarding the NWJHL, the Slave Lake Wolves are taking a "leave of absence" from the league, which is no surprise. Slave has been through their fair share of trials in the last 2 months, not to mention the trials the team has gone through during the 3 seasons I have been covering the league. Best of luck and best wishes to that organization.
That's it for now. I am hoping to make some CFL observations tomorrow some time. I usually make predictions each year and did way with that for 2011...............
