Merchants enforcer Tyler Tack teaching his trade to the next generation of Merchants.

A year ago today, the Merchants played just one game in Grand Forks, then made the difficult decision to return home. Crazy to think it has been over a month since we all showered together.

The Merchants have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020-2021 season. Thank you to Kikkoman Soy Sauce for sponsoring us through these difficult times.

1 year and 8 months since the Merchants last played. Tonight we go to Cartwright to face the @angrybeavers at 8:30. Reminder: Fans will be required to show proof of having a defibrillator with them, for the safety of the players. Thank you for understanding.

Despite having a 4-3 lead in the 3rd, the wheels fell off and we lost 12-6. Can’t help but wonder if the extra 15-50 lbs of muscle everyone added during the lockout actually hurt us.

Merchants picked up an 11–10 Overtime win last night against the CC Gliders Rookie Jack Vermeersch led the offence with 2 goals, while Tom Vermeersch may find himself sent down to AHLHansboro

Merchants travelled further east than we ever should last night. We received a shit kicking from the @HollandBackhards. Should be able to get back on track next week against the last place Glenboro Nordics

Wow. Should be a good one Wednesday night. We’re playing Wednesday to accommodate Glenboro’s weekly Thursday water taste test. #ShittyAgainThisWeek

Merchants legend Darcy Dearsley returned to the lineup last night after serving a 2 year suspension. His presence was felt immediately on the top line as he had 3 goals. Connor Vrooman added 3 more, and Prad Barsonage had 6 assists. We lost again, but that is beside the point.

Merchants have lost 3 games in 11 days. Won 1 game all season. Buried in last place. None of that matters. Today at 2pm we travel to Russia to face @CSKAKillarney in a battle of beer hockey Twitter heavyweights. #LFG

Merchants win a controversial one 8-7 over @CSKAKillarney after @TannerSlubann’s goal gets called back. Killarney “lake” flooded when Prad Barsonage scored the late winner.

We concede. Thank you for make tie. С Рождеством

In 2021 we did not win a single game in regulation. Thank you to the no so @angrybeavers last night for allowing us to get a better start on 2022.

Huge game tonight as expansion club @CSKAKillarney comes to town for an 8:30 affair. If we were ever going to get a fan, tonight would be the night. #aboveaveragetwitter #belowaveragehockey

Merchants picked up a 12-10 win over @CSKAKillarney in an instant classic. Having 3 lines and 4 frozen pizzas proved to be the difference in this one.

After a couple weeks of games not worth tweeting about, the Merchants beat the @HollandHemorrhoids 10-8. Prad Barsonage led the way with 6 goals fresh off his return from Beijing. Owen Lockhart cooked 3 pizzas, and Reece Johnson played a strong game for the hemorrhoids.

Rink burgers? Beer gardens? Forget most anticipated tournament of the winter, this is the most anticipated tournament since March 2020. Merchants fans: If you want to travel with the team, we will be meeting at 7:30. Ass, gas, or grass.

Can’t decide which route to go with this tweet. Think I’ll just say we lost 9-8 to @CSKAKillarney

Merchants returned to action tonight.

After an awful season debut last week in Cartwright, Merchants get back in the win column in PM Old Timers tonight. 6-4 was the final. Tyler Tack had the winner, Connor Vrooman had the rest. Justin DeMeuleneire looked like a young @Arturs_Irbe
