I have a small business making quilts from hockey jerseys/T-shirts, and would like to find out what the best hockey tourneys there are to set up a booth. Anyone know dates/contacts? Thanks.

Thanks so much. I've heard that there's a huge hockey expo in Minneapolis too that might be good. Appreciate your help!

Actually with the new 2 sheet ice arena going up in Vadnais Heights this year - due to open Nov 1st, White Bear is expanding most of their Moose Goheen tournaments to 12 teams.
