They get a cream puff the first game with the overated ElksSnoopdog007 wrote:The 99 Colorado Thunderbirds are a much stronger team than the 99 Madison Caps that were here last week. I believe the T-Birds are ranked 18 in Tier 1 AAA rankings and Caps are 46. T-Birds will play some of the top Minny Association teams starting Friday. T-Birds coach is Russian and loves this Minnesota weather. Should be interesting once again.
Does anyone have a schedule for this jamboree. I know there are several Friday day games at BIG.ThePuckStopsHere wrote:They get a cream puff the first game with the overated ElksSnoopdog007 wrote:The 99 Colorado Thunderbirds are a much stronger team than the 99 Madison Caps that were here last week.

Iowa teams don't count...JSR wrote:Nice, should be fun..... Don't have the scores handy but from what I heard it sounds like the '99 Caps beat ALbert Lea pretty soundly in all three games last weekendold goalie85 wrote:Colorado team should be here today for some games. Seems like more all the time.
Wow, brutal schedule, 7 games in four days, yikes. The 5 game sshowcases in 3 days is usually enough to completely and totally drain my Bantam, can't imagine having to play two more.... good luckRusty Blades wrote:The schedule for this weekends Thunderbirds vs Bantam AA is:
Thursday 6:40 vs Edina at Made
Friday 12:45 vs STMA at BIG
Friday 6:15 vs Elk River at Ridder
Saturday 9:00 am vs Stillwater at Ridder
Saturday 4:45 pm vs Lakeville South at Ridder
Sunday 10:00 am vs Woodbury* at Cottage Grove
Sunday 2:30 TBD between to top teams from the weekend
*The game vs Woodbury is not part of the "Jamboree". It was scheduled due to it being my son's former Association.
The coach of the Thunderbirds is Sergey Krivokrasov. Blackhawks #1 pick in 1992 I believe. He also played for the Wild and Predators as well as several years in the KHL.
Should be a fun weekend

Left that game before the start of the 3rd period (kid was done practicing at MM)...was impressed with the T-birds. Didn't think Edina played poorly, CO was just better.Rusty Blades wrote:Thunderbirds 4

The Elks looked very impressive this morning. They really move the puck well. I saw the 1st 7 minutes and it was already 3-0. LVS didn't look ready to compete this morning. There is no question that ER is the most consistent team so far.ERPWA Hockey wrote:Elk River Elks 6

Who refers to their kid as "my Bantam?" Very odd.JSR wrote: Wow, brutal schedule, 7 games in four days, yikes. The 5 game sshowcases in 3 days is usually enough to completely and totally drain my Bantam, can't imagine having to play two more.... good luck
Maybe somebody who has multiple kids playing hockey. "My Bantam", "My Squirt", etc. It'sa way for him to identify which kid he is talking about.Minnesota57 wrote:Who refers to their kid as "my Bantam?"

Yep, I now refer to my freshman, my bantam, and my mite.SCBlueLiner wrote:Maybe somebody who has multiple kids playing hockey.

You could use "my freshman", "my bantam" and "my surprise."stromboli wrote:Yep, I now refer to my freshman, my bantam, and my mite.SCBlueLiner wrote:Maybe somebody who has multiple kids playing hockey.

Could of maybe planned that last one out better...
I guess you are right.old goalie85 wrote:Your very odd !!! Most people w/multiple kids do. I refer to m9ine the same way. AND I'm normal !!!!
Nope, just hockey players in development to be my future retirement source as NHLers, or maybe NHL coaches. The mite might have to work a little harder than the other two, but she should have a shot if she just commits to my master 10 year plan for her development.Minnesota57 wrote:I guess you are right.old goalie85 wrote:Your very odd !!!

How is your Chevy Blazer driver?, Your 4th hour social studies student? Your movie-goer? Your ham sandwich eater? And your magazine seller?
Not odd at all.
I would hope your sons and daughters are a bit more than a "bantam" to you. Perhaps not.
