Just stay in West Kelowna or Kelowna, the drive is only about an hour.

Yes, we have a place in Summerland already. Was just complaining. It's already hard enough to get somewhere to stay for this tournament.

Feck, we have a wedding to go to the following weekend in Kelowna. Was hoping the young stars would be the weekend of the 16th so I could finally make it to a couple of games.

I wonder what our roster will look like? For the past few years the Flames have done well at this tourney, but the best prospects in the system are probably getting too old for this. Guys like Dube, Matthews, Parsons, etc. will probably attend rather than Foo, Gillies, Jankowski, etc.

Bumping again. Center ice seats running very low, but some good upper club seats left between the blue lines.

I've got 3 in 119 for the tourney. Hopefully some of y'all will be nearby and I won't be surrounded by greasers.

I went last year and had a great time. This is a great little tournament.
