for all fans on senior Men's Hockey the Allan cup final goes today in Stony Plain
http://www.allancup.ca/
some will remember Theo Fleury, Odjick and friends losing in this tourney a few years ago, it is emblematic of 'amateur' senior men's hockey supremacy
this years tourney features a smattering of former NHLers or Flames farmhands including Doug Doull, Brent Grieve, Gaetan Royer, Zenon Komarniski and Brent Grieve
my cousin is the captain of the Whitby Dunlops and they advanced to the finals yesterday by beating the Bentley Generals which features Ryan Smyth's 2 brothers and is coached by-believe it or not-Brian Sutter (cue Smyth/Sutter connection rumors)
so if anyone is in the area and is heading to the game, root for the Dunlops! My cousin has already won a Memorial Cup and CIAU men's championship and it would be cool for him if he could add this third cup to his trophy case
