Get the duct tape...

I guess I'm confused. If the Bulls are going NorPac, and not AWHL, with whom are they going to be rivals, assuming the rest of the Montana teams go A-Dub? Why wait to join?

Memo to Doug Strong: HUSH!

I know you want to keep the team in the news, but sometimes it's best to keep quiet until things actually shake out. Then again, maybe this is simply some applied misdirection. After all... it wouldn't be the sillyseason without some.


Speaking of keeping one's yapper shut... Today marks Day 2 of the WSHL league meetings in Las Vegas. I must confess that I am withholding a fair bit of the proceedings at this point, but only because I do not wish to paint an incomplete picture of what has been taking place. I will say, however, that odds appear to be very good that the league will add one more team that was not anticipated by most observers.


I don't normally comment on individual games, but last night's 7-3 win by the Southern Minny Express over the Texas Tornado qualifies as a mild shocker. I'm sure there are plenty of reasons/excuses, such as the extended layoff, etc... but I guess it's safe to assume that the deadly tornado that dropped down within slapshot distance of Frisco the night before wasn't a good omen.

Norpac = AWHL. I think the point of the article that was missed was if the league could be approved for Independent Junior A or Tier III Junior A status, then the Norpac would "move up" to that level and officially become AWHL (at least the teams from spokane to Billings). If it is not approved, then Billings would simply join the Norpac. Either way, same league, same talent.
