The Medicine Hat Hockey Hounds Tournament which is now into its 4th decade will take place in Medicine Hat, AB from November 13-16.  The tournament is still considered one of the crown jewels of bantam hockey’s season in regards to major events and/or tournaments despite the new Rocky Mountain Tournament which draws many of the top teams as well and especially from southern Alberta.

The defending champion, Edmonton SSAC Southgate Lions return along with runner up BWC Bruins.  Last year’s final saw Edmonton SSAC defeat BWC 6-4.

The top returning scorer from last year’s tournament is Luka Burzan who was part of the Surrey Thunder team.  Burzan now is part of the tournament favorite NSWC Winterhawks.  Burzan and the Winterhawks will be looking for some better luck in that they were struck with the flu and had to withdraw early from the tournament.  Elijah Brown was tied with Burzan with 7 points last year and was also part of a different team as he played as an AP with the Lloydminster Heat.  Brown is part of Edmonton SSAC Southgate Lions.  It will be a longshot for SSAC to win the tournament again this year.

The Tim Jardine Memorial Tournament will take place in South Delta from November 6-9.  This is the 21st year of the tournament and  is also a time to remember a young man who in 1994, tragically lost his life while playing hockey. Tim Jardine was recognized for his sportsmanship, enthusiasm and love of hockey. He was a young man who embodied the spirit of this game. It is our hope that these qualities will continue to be the cornerstone of all those who play and participate in this tournament.

The host South Delta Storm will look to end a long 8 year drought.  The last time the hosts were able to win the tournament, they were led by Montreal Canadians forward Brendan Gallagher back in 2006.

– Two of the final three undefeated teams will meet Friday night as the 7-0-0 Rocky Mountain Raiders host the 5-0-3 Calgary Flames.  Not only are the Flames and the Raiders two of the highest scoring teams in the AMBHL but they are also two of the stingiest with the Flames allowing a miniscule 14 goals in 8 games while the Raiders have allowed 17 goals in 7 games.  Rocky Mountains 48 goals in 7 games ranked 1st in the AMBHL.

– The Terriers have 5 players who have over 10 goals in the 8 games played already.  Keenan Taphorn (15-21-36), Kaedan Taphorn (15-18-33), Carson Miller (13-17-30), D- Reid Perepeluk (14-11-25) and Brett Kemp (11-11-22).  It is interesting to note that the Terriers have used 4 different goalies this year, all of whom have played twice.

– Brendan Budy of the Delta Wild leads all CSSHL scorers with 10 points through his first 5 games.  Tristan Nielsen leads in goals with 5 goals and sits 3rd with 25 PIMS while Delta Wild captain D – Ty Smith leads defenceman with 7 points in 5 games.  Smith has recorded a point in all 5 games.

– In goal, James Porter Jr. from Idaho has been outstanding, posting a 4-0-0 record with a sparkling 1.03 GAA and a .972% to easily lead in all major goaltending categories.  He has stopped 139/143 shots faced thus far!

– Placement will continue this weekend in the PCAHA and entering the weekend just NSWC at 5-0-0 and BWC at 3-0-0 remain undefeated in flight 1.  NSWC have outscored their opponents 36-5 while BWC have outscored their opponents 25-3.  The Vancouver Thunderbirds are the only other team who have a better than .500 record at 4-2-0.

– The Richmond Blues have a 5-0-0 record in flight 2 placement and they look like they can compete in flight 1 when balancing is finished.  2001 born forward Samuel Huo leads the team in scoring with 10-13-23 while Michael Araki-Young has also been strong thus far with 22 points.  One of the top goalies for the draft – Jordan Naylor has a 14-6-0 with a 1.35 GAA and a .979 through 20 games.

In a battle of two of the final three undefeated teams in the AMBHL last night, it was the Calgary Flames hanging on for a 4-3 win vs. Rocky Mountain.  With the win, the Calgary Flames are now 6-0-3 and Rocky Mountain fall to 7-1-0.

Here is some feedback from our scout in attendance…….

In a fast paced game the difference was the Flames systems and speed when attacking on the rush.  By attacking with speed, the Flames forced the Raiders defense to back in on the net, this allowed them to take advantage of the lanes opened up with the defense playing in tight to the net and be more selective when attacking the Raiders net. Hunter Young made some strong saves but was challenged by the speed of the game. The Flames defense forced RMR to shoot from the perimeter allowing Carl Stankowski a relatively easy first half of the game. Rocky Mountain Raiders became effective late in the game when crashing the net and out-battling the Flames in the corners which resulted in the Flames defense making mistakes and giving RMR a chance to capitalize bringing the game back to within reach, forcing Stankowski to make some difficult rebound saves in the closing minutes of the game.

With the exception of a late third period penalty, Jonathan Tychonik and Cameron Pollock-Hughes were the most effective players for the Flames while Payton Krebs and Cole Clayton were very effective for the Raiders. RMR were missing forwards Jackson Salt and Kale Clouston.

We will do a new league tomorrow but will start with the AMBHL study today.

RACKING UP POINTS – Dylan Cozens celebrates his game-winning goal versus the United States while an American fan covers her eyes in the Czech Republic last month.

Cozens earns MVP honours at Czech tournament

It was a game Dylan Cozens will never forget.

It was a game Dylan Cozens will never forget.

Tied 6-6 late in a game against a high-scoring U.S. team, the young centre prepared for an offensive zone faceoff with only one thing on his mind.

After winning the puck back, the Yukoner headed to the front of the net to tip his teammate’s shot, before burying the rebound deep behind the U.S. netminder.

The goal, which stood up as the game-winner, was Cozens’ fifth of the game – and seventh point – much to the chagrin of the American contingent watching from the stands.

A period earlier, Cozens singlehandedly brought his club back from a 4-1 deficit by scoring twice and assisting on a third – all while shorthanded.

The three-goal outburst happened in the span of 36 seconds.

The 13-year-old Whitehorse native starred for the Canada Cowboys – an elite AAA squad from Alberta – in the Czech Republic last month.

While his team finished off the podium at the 2014 Czech Challenger Cup, Cozens earned MVP honours after racking up nine goals and 10 assists in five games.

His points total was seven up on the rest of the field, and 12 more than the next Canada Cowboys player.

Besides the United States, the Cowboys also squared off with teams from Latvia, Sweden, Hong Kong and the host nation during the tournament.

Cozens had received an invite to join the Cowboys AAA European hockey tour the past two years, after earning MVP honours in back-to-back spring hockey tournaments with the Alberta All-Stars X-Men.

Last year, Yukoner Ryan Troke received a similar opportunity with the Canadian AAA Explorers.

Cozens said the European tournament experience was unique in many ways, on and off the ice.

“In some of the rinks, you couldn’t see the other side of the ice because of fog,” he said.

Another arena was reportedly shorter than standard size after ownership decided to claim a portion of the ice to build a concession stand.

Outside the arena, the team toured many historic sites together, including a concentration camp – an experience Cozens called “mind-blowing.”

The two-week trip saw the team bus roll through multiple cities.

Following the tournament, Cozens and his family went on to spend three weeks touring Italy.

Cozens splashed onto the hockey radar last season when he was ranked second on a list of 2001-born western Canadian hockey prospects.

The list, published by Western Elite Hockey Prospects, was compiled by a network of Western Hockey League scouts.

The Grade 8 student at Porter Creek Secondary said playing major junior hockey continues to be his number one goal.

“Two years from now, I want to make the bantam draft,” Cozens told the Star this week.

After spending much of last season with his right leg in a cast after his tibia and fibula were broken in a rec league hockey game, Cozens said he feels like he has finally returned to form.

Following his recovery, he played in four spring hockey tournaments in Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver and Winnipeg.

However, during his second game in Edmonton, he suffered an injury setback when he was targeted by an opponent with an illegal check to the knees.

Following the hit, Cozens laid on the ice in excruciating pain, before being taken away by ambulance.

“I was scared that I broke my femur again,” he admitted.

While the injury was not as serious as initially feared, it did set the youngster back in his recovery process.

The 5-foot-10, 130-pound forward continued to play spring hockey wearing a knee brace.

This week, Cozens was one of 21 players to crack the Bantam Mustangs roster following a two-week training camp.

“It was nice to see him almost back to normal after his many injuries this year,” his mom, Sue Bogle, said of the European experience. “The hockey was fun, but they were really focused on making it an experience.”

The summer tournament was held July 27 to Aug. 10. The team played three exhibition games before official tournament play began.

The annual Graham Tuer Bantam AA Tournament will get underway bright and early tomorrow morning in Regina, SK at the Co-Operators Centre.  The tournament honors Graham Tuer who was instrumental in developing minor hockey in Saskatchewan in his 50+ years to which he has been involved.  He has coached and managed at many levels of minor and junior hockey.  Among his many accomplishment in the sport, he received the WHL distinguished service award in 2010 and was inducted to the Regina Sports Hall of Fame in 2012.

This years tournament will feature 25 teams, including 21 from Saskatchewan and 4 from Manitoba.  The only team who won’t be attending from the SBAAHL are the Notre Dame AA Hounds.  The 4 Manitoba teams are the Yellowhead Chiefs, Southwest Cougars, Brandon Wheat Kings and the Interlake Lightning.

The Tim Jardine Memorial Tournament will take place in South Delta from November 6-9.  This is the 21st year of the tournament and  is also a time to remember a young man who in 1994, tragically lost his life while playing hockey. Tim Jardine was recognized for his sportsmanship, enthusiasm and love of hockey. He was a young man who embodied the spirit of this game. It is our hope that these qualities will continue to be the cornerstone of all those who play and participate in this tournament.

The host South Delta Storm will look to end a long 8 year drought.  The last time the hosts were able to win the tournament, they were led by Montreal Canadians forward Brendan Gallagher back in 2006.
