Hockey weekend in Buffalo

We had the opportunity to play the closest thing to a 'home' tournament without playing on home ice. We took the short trip to nearby Buffalo for some rink action. It was Mathias turn in the net. In the pool play, the team had a fabulous start beating Blaine.  This was the team's first win in a tournament this year!  
After a brief 2 hour rest we were back on the ice.  The boys looked tired and we lost to the home team.  Our third bout was against North Metro. The game ended in a tie (2-2) in spite of the Tigers out-shooting the Pirates by a whopping 42-10.  
All in all this qualified the Tigers to play for third place in the tournament.  This game was quite lopsided and it was clear after 30 seconds that the team had no chance against the (Princeton) Tigers.
I think everyone came away feeling pretty good about it.
