The open road, a fresh tin of Copenhagen short and an ipod full of country tunes: it’s rookie camp season across Canada.
With the Stanley Cup finals decided in North Carolina Monday night, the 2005-06 hockey season, pro or otherwise, is but a memory as teams big and small now begin gearing up to do it all over again in the fall. This past weekend I joined Kyle Kowalski, a good friend of mine and member of the MJHL’s Waywayseecappo Wolverines, for a roadie out to Russell, Manitoba, to check out the first camp of the ‘new’ season.
Wayway isn’t the best team in the MJHL, but the boys out there are beauties and the small-town hockey atmosphere is as alive in Russell, Manitoba, as it is anywhere else in the country.
Whether it’s sharing a chew, chugging a brew, or trying out some new dangles at the rink playing pick-up with the fellas, the GONGSHOW HOCKEY culture is what these boys are all about.
During my first day out at the rink, I could have been back in Edmonton playing shinny and never noticed the difference, and I was pumped to see that hockey boys across the country are the same breed regardless of where they call home in the summer or where they play in the winter.
When a few of the boys found out that I was the author of “the Kerrzy Report†here on the Gongshow Hockey website, they were all pretty pumped, and I tell ya, there is no feeling like that – to know that you’re a part of something that unites hockey boys from all over the place to a point where you can meet them and immediately start jawing away like old buddies, like we do here at GSH.
I’d just like to say good luck to Fraser, Bicksy and the rest of the boys -- keep on keepin’ on fellas.
