PCAHA Juvenile Canucks Strike Gold

RIDGE MEADOWS DISH

February 12, 2012

The Championship game of the 30th Annual PCAHA Juvenile Scholarship Tournament was held yesterday at Sungod Arena in North Delta, BC. 

In what can only be described as 'thrilling', the Senators and Canucks played an epic hockey game resulting in a double overtime 4-3 win for the Canucks. The Canucks who had lost their last round robin game to the Senators came out hungry for 'revenge'. The equally hungry Senators kept the game fast paced with everyone sitting on the edge of their seats.

Outstanding goal tending by Senators #1 Brenden Vogt (Ridge Meadows Minor Hockey) and the tag team goalies  # 30 Jason Sidhu (Surrey Minor Hockey) and #1 Tyson Leblanc (Seafair Minor Hockey) for the Canucks. 

 

Goals for the Senators:

• #12 Brody Hemrich (Cloverdale Minor Hockey) with assist from #10 Braden Strelezki (Ridge Meadows Minor Hockey 
• #9 Mike Ward (Port Coquitlam Minor Hockey) with assist from #16 Jacob Wiebe (Cloverdale Minor Hockey)
• #16 Jacob Wiebe (Cloverdale Minor Hockey) unassisted

Goals for the Canucks:

• #3 Devon Whitter (Coquitlam Minor Hockey) assisted by # 19 David Kemp (Seafair Minor Hockey) and # 10 Michael Rose (Seafair Minor Hockey)
• #10 Michael Rose (Seafair Minor Hockey) assisted by #5 Justin Oertel (North Delta Minor Hockey)
• #17 Bobby MacLean (Surrey Minor Hockey) unassisted
• #5 Justin Oertel (North Delta Minor Hockey) unassisted *double overtime winning goal*

The exciting conclusion to the Tournament, came to it's apex with the rewarding of the Earl Sinkie Trophy (The creator of the Trophy and Tournament). 

Brek Stewart (Managing Director Juvenile Division for P.C.A.H.A) accompanied by Earl Sinkie presented the Trophy to the Canucks (Coached by Jim Schuck and Maurice Hamlin both of Richmond Minor Hockey). The boys all received their individual gold medals along with the hoisting of the Trophy.

The silver medals handed out to the Senators (Coached by Dan Melanson of Burnaby Winter Club and Derek Chichak of Seafair Minor Hockey) 

The closing ceremonies wouldn't have been complete without the presentation of the three five hundred dollar bursaries to the Tournament MVP's. 

First the game MVP's were handed out to:

#1 Tyson Leblanc of the Canucks (Representing Seafair Minor Hockey)

#15 Cale Bechtel of the Senators (Representing Abbotsford Minor Hockey)

The Tournament MVP Winners were as follows:

#7 Trevor Yu of the Flames (Representing Vancouver Minor Hockey)

Championship Game PCAHA Juvenile Scholarship Tournament

RIDGE MEADOWS DISH

The game we have all been waiting for is finally here! 

Today starting at 3:00pm at the Sungod Arena in North Delta is the Championship Game of the 30th Annual P.C.A.H.A Juvenile Scholarship Tournament.

Today's game is sure to be an exciting one as it will pit the Senators (coached by Dan Melanson representing Burnaby Winter Club and Derek Chichak representing Seafair Minor Hockey) against the Canucks (coached by Maurice Hamlin and Jim Schuck both representing Richmond Minor Hockey).

The Canucks having lost their last round robin game to the Senators 7-4 Thursday night, have something to prove in today's game. Both teams while chasing the trophy are also in the hunt for the individual player bursaries. 

After the game, the Championship Trophy will be handed out to the winning team as well as first and second place medals. The underlining reason behind the Tournament will be the presentation of three $500 bursaries (One player from the Senators, Canucks and Flames) along with the game MVP's. 

Admission is free and souvenir programs will be available for only a 'Twoonie'. Sungod Arena has a concession as well as a pool if you wanted to make a whole day of it.
