Here is my Cousins' son, Adam Wallace. Tough young MOFO playing for the Windsor Spitfires. Are the Windsor Spitfires in a league similar to our AHL??

For you hockey fans, our MSU-Bottineau Lumberjacks are playing for the NJCAA Championship at 2 pm EST today against Monroe Community College of Rochester,NY. The game is in Canton, NY and is streamed at http://www.northcountrysports.net/ if you would like to listen. They advanced yesterday to the championship game with an 8 - 1 win over North Country Community College of Sarnac Lake, NY. I will be cheering on the Lumberjacks this afternoon.

Windsor Spitfires on Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windsor_Spitfires)
They are in the Ontario junior hockey league, similiar to the US AHL, they dont appear to be a direct farm team to any NHL franchises but they do have a long history of producing solid players to the league.

Results of the National Champion:
Steve, our MSU-Bottineau Lumberjacks repeat as the National Champions. They defeated Monroe Community College 6 - 1 this afternoon in Canton. As one of the announcers said, MCC was confident coming into the game and then they ran into the MSU-Bottineau Buzz Saw.

I think the 4 warm up games in the past couple of weeks with a pair of AAA Senior teams out of Manitoba helped. These were players who were ex Division 1 and pro players, in their late 20 -30's, stronger and smarter. We only lost by 1 in two of the games, and won one of them by a couple I think.
