May 8th is a special day. To all our great Pembroke LumberKings alumni, staff, fans and volunteers, I think of you often with great appreciation. Lots has happened in 10 years but this moment remains at the top. Always a Lumber King.

Lou was the life of league meetings that he never missed and his passion for the Bogart Cup Playoffs was unmatched. Countless people benefited from that including myself. I offer my condolences to the Nistico family as well as my CCHL friends for their great loss.

Couldn’t have said it better, Kristen Ledlow. ❤️👏

I’ve been in this Elite Ice Hockey League | #EIHL a few years now. I’ve been with Team GB Ice Hockey a couple years now. I’m extremely proud of this group of players & staff. This wasn’t an easy experience. They stuck with it & prevailed. That’s special. Credit to all involved for their sacrifices.

Choked! What an amazing team! So much heart, passion. Pete Russell deserves so much credit. #DareToDream . For perspective, this team is to 🇬🇧 what 80 was to 🇺🇸 and 72 was to 🇨🇦. This journey will fund the next gen & raise profile the game. The legacy was earned. #barmyarmy ➡️🇨🇭
