The Heartland Mustangs surprised the Rob Kerr All Stars by taking back the Doug Blackie Memorial Cup with a flurry of second period goals. Kerr’s old school coaching method of tying his goalie’s arms and legs to the posts as punishment for poor play, backfired. The Mustangs took full advantage and ripped a whack of [...]
Hi Friends,
Just wanted to send out a quick thank you to everyone involved in the 2nd annual Center Ice Challenge, this years event will build on the success of last years event and is likely going to lay the ground work for an annual Christmas Tradition here in Calgary.

Well one of the biggest mistakes you can make in sports is taking any result for granted, I feel very comfortable predicting victory for the Rob Kerr All Star’s yet again this year.

LOOKIT! Joel Otto’s joining the big game! He’s taking an afternoon off to join the fun. He’ll be strapping on the blades for Rob Kerr’s All Stars. That’s cuz they need all the help they can get!

Captain Rob Kerr raises the Doug Blackie Memorial Cup at the inaugural Big Brothers Big Sisters Centre Ice Challenge. It was a terrific event even though the weather tried its best to keep the fans away. The few hundred that made it were thoroughly entertained from the play by play of [...]
Rob, I don’t know what you’re thinkin’! Trading Cassie Campbell to us for future considerations? Well, guess what? Here are your considerations: Consider your loss. Consider our gain. Consider your sad and downcast looks when she leads us to the Doug Blackie Memorial Cup. And consider that she’s pretty happy about it!
