• Time To Be RelevantIf you follow this blog, you know that I'm critical of Canada West and its nine member schools that participate in hockey when it comes to them being relevant in the hockey world. Let's be honest - they're not. No one talks about scouting Canada West for players they can sign, and it seems pretty obvious that only the best of the best are playing hockey at the professional level once their U SPORT...2025See more articles Calgary Dinos news and rumors -

• Poland's Best In BrandonIn my search for fun hockey stories, I stumbled across the newspaper advertisement you see to the left announcing that the Polish National Hockey Team would be playing the Brandon University Bobcats on December 10. That advertisement was run in The Brandon Sun on December 8, 1978, and it wasn't something I was looking for when I was hunting through newspaper archives, but it certainly grabbed my a...2025Read about Andy Murray -
• The Rundown - Canada West FinalThe Canada West 2024-25 season came down to two teams that were seeking a championship before heading east to Ontario for the National Championship. UBC and Alberta were the top-two teams in the conference this season, and they met in Vancouver to determine which program would be crowned as champion, which school would get a new wall decoration, and which program would be ranked in the top-half of...2025Click for news about Alberta Pandas breaking news today -
• A Goalie From Mars?The goalie to the left probably isn't well-known, but the team she's playing for has also been lost in the echoes of time. That's Jennifer Price between the pipes for the BC Breakers of the old Western Women's Hockey League, and she did something that no one else in western Canada had done before. Price was a very good goaltender who was born in Victoria where women's hockey hadn't quite caught on...2025Check it out British Columbia news and rumors

• Game 24 Recap: Blue Jackets beat Blackhawks
The Jackets started their Western Canada roadtrip with a detour in Chicago Sunday afternoon, and walked away with a 6-3 win. Neat! First Period JVR took an early tripping penalty, which the Blackhawks capitalized on.

• The Rundown - Week 3
As Week Three of the Canada West season gets underway, one team still hadn't been defeated, two teams hadn't recorded a regulation loss, and one team still had no points. Depending on this week's results, the Canada West playoff picture may be forming very early as to who may participate and who may not, but there's still a ton of time for teams that are looking to climb the standings.
