Team Request Cold Lake Ice     Recently, I was asked to review a home town team to gain some publicity for them. This team was the Cold Lake Ice located in Cold Lake, Alberta, Canada. They are a Junior B team that plays in the NEAJBHL (North Eastern Alberta Junior B Hockey League.) The Ice are currently back to back to back Champions in their 10th season. This is pretty  impressive to say the least. The current team captain is Niko Bourget. Located far from the Canada/USA border, this is the perfect hockey town surrounded by snow and ice. In the 2012-2013 season the team had only one loss in their consecutive season. The Ice had a .923 win percentage, 95 goals for, 7.31 goals for average, 27 goals against, 2.08 goals against average, 21 power play goals for, 5 power play goals against, 2 short handed goals for, and 1 short handed goal against. Even though they aren't in a well know league or a well known team, they have potential to produce some fantastic players. Hope
#71                                                              Biscuits and Breezers        Welcome back to another blog of Biscuits and Breezers! In this blog we will be talking about MacKinnon's contract with Colorado, NHL Draftee for the Winnipeg Jets and goaltender Eric Comrie, and the huge Dallas/Boston trade. Starting off with Eric Comrie. In the 2013 NHL Entry Draft, Comrie was selected 59th overall in the 2nd round by Winnipeg coming from the Tri-City Americans roster in the WHL. Why am I telling you all this? This is because recently I had the great pleasure of interviewing him! In the 2012- 2013 season, he had 3 assists in 37 games played, 2 PIMs, 2178 minutes played, 95 goals against, 2 shut outs, 2.62 goals against average, 20 wins, 14 losses, 3 ties, 1023 saves, and 0.915 save percentage. He is the younger half-brother of former NHLer Mike Comrie. Now unfortunately his season was cut short due to a severe hip injury. Even though this did happen,
Stanley Cup Champions Blog Chicago Blackhawks: 2013 Stanley Cup Champions     Welcome back to another blog of Biscuits and Breezers! In this shorter version of our regular blog, we will be talking about Chicago's second win with Jonathan Toew as captain. Yes the Hawks have gotten the win once again! Beating the Boston Bruins 3-2, Chicago has won two cup titles within 4 years. You all might have heard about the 17 seconds that changed history and really that's what it was. Dave Bolland and Bryan Bickell scored 17 seconds apart in the last 1:16 minutes to lift up the team from Boston's lead. I am very glad that this team took home the cup because they worked as such a great unit and had such team "spirit" that they acted like one player instead on relying on the star players like Boston did. No offense Boston but there was definitely a stronger drive to play as a unit and passion in Chicago in my opinion. I felt like Boston relied mostly on t
