Standings:
Another fine day at the Kapusta Kow Palace at the annual tournament. Rocky’s Wings prevailing in a hard fought 2-0 victory in the final game. “I thought we came out strong, we knew who we had to watch out there in that final game and I think Crispy did a great job defending the zone and Skippy Renaud played a great game for us in net”. stated a jubilant team Captain Chad Comartin. The Rocky Wings will be able to defend their title next year, just for one year.
Tournament Rookies were honoured with a Limited Edition Purple Tomcat t-shirt, Most Gentleman player went to Bulldog Meloche, “I’m always f*^^%$g wining that award” . stated Bulldog Meloche. Most dedicated Tomcat went to a very deserving Andy ‘Youngblood’ Morgan. Three new captains announced for next year, Dave Hann…George Metulynsky and Steven Jaworiwsky, the three longest serving Tomcats. Bulldog Meloche was also to be a Captain if the Polka Kings had won the tournament, but was a last minute scratch, since he just Captained the LaSalle Vikings 2 years ago. And tournament MVP went to a very deserving Skippy Renaud who shut out his opponents on two occasions in the tournament, “I’m very honoured in getting this award, every dog, has his day, and I guess today is my day” a beaming Renaud had stated.
Out door game announced for April 26. There will be Tuesday night hockey up until that time.
Lots of compliments on the new Tomcat t-shirt as well. “I need a whole new closet for all my Tomcat wear” indicated Sunny Salaris.
George Metulynsky was in awe of his five new shirts. “I got an orange Polka shirt and I got the Polka King alternative shirt, I got a Lakeshore auto shirt and I got a new Ghost Crossing shirt and to top it all off, of course I got a new Windsor Tomcat tournament shirt.”
After all was said and done, the boys sat around and enjoyed a few pints up on stage. Then they were ushered to Purples where the celebration continued, with the ‘ Tomcat Forever ‘ song being sang in the bar. (WAIT FOR THAT TO BE PUT UP ON THE WEB SITE)
Special thanks go out to Dave Walton the photographer, Ray MacDonnell and Chad Comartin for securing some of the prizes, Dave Crawford for providing a new Tomcat Jersey for the Picture taking and Lakeshore Auto T-shirts for all the Tomcat Members. And to all the Tomcats who participated in the tournament.
Whilst at the bar, I overheard George Metulynsky tell a story, “If you throw your wife and dog into the trunk of the car, and after three hours, you open the trunk, who will be happy to see you, ‘the dog’ (some of the Tomcats shouted back,) Yes…and if your dog is barking in the back yard and your wife is yelling at you from the front yard, who do you let in first?” ‘The dog’ the Tomcats shouted back,..”That’s right” George said, then added, “Cuz if you let the dog in, it’ll shut up”.
and the Tomcats howled.
No hockey this coming Tuesday March 1, back at her, on March 8.
With you drinking from Stanley’s Cup. I will put my Harry Ballsonue.
