Peewee Quebec Dispatch Day 1 To most, Monday, February 9, 2009 may just be like any other day.

. Rise and shine. Go to work. Go to school. Come home. Eat dinner. Watch the Grammy Awards Fashion Recap. Go to bed and look forward to the end of another week. There is no real significance to set it aside from the other 364 days that roll by in a never-ending cycle. Sure, there may be a few minor historic events that occurred on this day at some point in history. Like the founding of the Brickyard in 1909, the famous home of the Indianapolis 500. Or the birth of William Henry Harrison in 1773, who went on to be the 9th President of the United States. Or the death of Bill Haley in 1981, who turned the classic Rock'N'Roll tune "Rock Around the Clock" into a chart-topper. However, if these are the biggest events to have happened on February 9, it is obviously one of the less significant days of the year. That is, for everyone other than 17 young athletes from the hockey hot-bed of the Washington, DC, area. Today, the sun didn't happen to rise on just any other day. It happened to shine on the day that they would be making a trip half way to the North Pole, ending up in the historic French-Canadian city of Quebec. No, this wasn't just any other day. This was the day when years of anticipation would finally manifest themselves into a reality almost too amazing for them to comprehend. They had seen the pictures of older players who had gone before. They had heard the stories of other coaches (now grown men) who were able to make this same journey as kids. They had read the names of NHL stars that had played here in years past, including Gretzky, Crosby and St. Louis. But this was still always a distant dream for them. One that some believed might be too good to ever actually come true. Until today. Today, Monday, February 9, 2009, marked the day when they would actually see their names printed on the airline boarding passes. Next to their name, their destination: QUEBEC. In the background, you could almost hear the deep, silky, powerful tones of the NFL Films legendary voice, John Facenda, proceeding to set the storyline, as if Vince Lombardi himself was once again trotting toward the sideline on the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field: "On a day that many never dreamed would come, youth hockeys finest converge on the frozen tundra of Quebec City. From all ends of the earth, these elfin gladiators have come to grab their piece of history in the most acclaimed tournament hockey has to offer. They follow in the footsteps of the sports greats. Guy Lafleur. Marcel Dionne. Gilbert Perrault. Brad Park. Wayne Gretzky. Mario Lemieux. The next 8 days may determine who will be the next to add their name to this distinguished roster. The stage has been set on the hallowed grounds of Le Colisee de Quebec.

Seeing players from all over the world may make one wonder what they have in common. That curiosity is quickly laid to rest with one look into their eyes. The shared passion for the game they all love. The glow on their faces that this dream is finally coming true. The thoughts of what the upcoming days will hold. Win or lose, this week will create memories that will last a lifetime. The opportunity to participate in this event is enough to produce stories that they will tell their grandchildren. The hockey-related events are only the tip of the iceberg. They will be experiencing a different culture like few are ever be able to do. The players will be spending the remainder of their time in Quebec billeting with local families. Friendships will be established among kids who live thousands of miles away from each other, and they will stay in contact for years to come. Tomorrow will be a big day for the Washington Little Caps team. They will be playing their first tournament game in the Colisee at 6pm against none other than the hometown Quebec Citadelles. It is not uncommon for local fans to turn out in the THOUSANDS to watch these games. And playing the hometown team will no doubt bring more spectators through the gates. The ride from the airport to the hotel was evidence enough that we are a long way from home. The thermometer read -19 degrees Celsius, which is roughly -1 degree Farhenheit. Snow was drifted over 6 feet in some places. Canopies cover the driveways so people dont have to break their backs shoveling as much snow. Hey Toto, I dont think we are in Kansas anymore! I will be sending out a dispatch each day to keep all of our fans at home (and everywhere else) up to date on how the team is doing and what we are up to. Undoubtedly, there will be many stories to tell. Id like to send a special thank you out to all of our sponsors and those who put in countless hours (and finances) to help make this trip possible for these young men. Quote of the day: No, Coach! Go get your own food! Brett Topolski, when I told him to go get me something to eat in the Toronto Airport, while we were waiting for our connecting flight to Quebec. Over and out from the Great White North. Tune in for updates from Tuesdays events. -Coach Hawthorne

Peewee Quebec Dispatch Day 2 The wake up call came early on Tuesday morning in Quebec City. The sky was blue, and the temperature outside was a balmy -22 degrees Celsius. Maybe not the most ideal weather for golf, but certainly on par with typical hockey weather around here. The team met in the lobby at 9am to catch the bus that we would be using as our primary mode of transportation for the rest of the week. There was a definite spring in everyones step. Today was the day. Colisee, here we come! We arrived at the Colisee for registration at 9:30 and were greeted on the bus by our billet captain Nancy. She would be taking care of all our needs for the rest of our time in Quebec. I wont bore you with all of the details on the registration process. But I do want to convey that it would have been pretty rough had Nancy not been there to guide us through. She was great. With our registration complete, we were off to a local rink for our morning practice. We had reserved an hour-long ice slot to get in a morning skate. We didnt run anything too intense. It was more just to get the players legs under them and get them focused for the big game later in the day. The idea of getting everyone out for the pre-game skate was great, however, not all of the players were able to take advantage of the practice. Air Canada decided that it would be fun to lose the luggage for three of our families. So Luke Aaron, Andrew Baron, and Patrick Young were without equipment, and, as of 9am, the airline had no idea where their bags were. I wouldnt say that we were in panic mode yet, but we were definitely starting to lean that way. Luckily, their luggage arrived early in the afternoon, so they would be able to play in the big game. I have had a bit of a luggage nightmare of my own. For those of you who dont know Chris Soucie, he is another hockey coach with the Washington Little Caps. I guess you could say that he and I are like Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, with me (obviously) being the better looking one! At a minimum, at least I still have my full head of hair! And if you dont know him, that is probably a good thing. For those who DO know him, let me warn you: DO NOT TAKE HIS ADVICE ON HOCKEY TOURNAMENT LOGISTICS!!! He came up with a great idea about how I can avoid the baggage handling nightmares of the Toronto and Montreal airports. Why dont you just put all your stuff in a big box and ship it to your hotel? he advised. Great idea, Soucie! I think Ill do that! I replied. So I sent all of my clothes, my Little Caps cold weather coat, my boots, my snow pants, and several other cold-weather items. Two weeks prior to my

arrival in Quebec, the box was sent via UPS with 3-4 day delivery service. I didnt take into account that the Canadian Government would decide to hold my shipment in Customs for over a week. Chris OBVIOUSLY had not considered this option either. Apparently boots and sweaters are contraband up here. To make a long story short, I STILL do not have my clothes. I had to pay an extra $75 to get expedited service from Customs in Montreal to get the package here by 1:30pm Wednesday (today). So, allow me to reiterate my warning: DO NOT TAKE ADVICE FROM CHRIS SOUCIE!!! In fact, if he offers you advice, do the exact opposite of what he says. You are better off that way! (Just kidding, we all love you, Soucie!) Everyone returned to the hotel to grab lunch and get some rest before our big game at the Colisee. At 3:15, I had a team meeting with the players in my room. Many teams go over Xs and Os or general game plans. We decided to dig back into hockey nostalgia and show a classic Canadian cartoon produced by the Canadian Film institute in the 1970s. The Sweater is a cartoon that is near and dear to many Canadians hearts, but it has not really penetrated the US. It is a story about a young boy growing up in Quebec in 1946. He lives and dies for the Montreal Canadiens. They are the greatest ockey team in the world, according to the claims of the narrator in his thick French-Canadian accent. Coach Gwiz helped introduce the film, over speakerphone all the way from his office in DC. Peter Grose and Coach Mulvey were also at the meeting, and they talked about their fond memories of hockey while they grew up. The team was starting to understand how hockey is so much more than just a sport in the Quebec culture. A quick side note to explain how big of a deal this tournament is: Hundreds of teams from around the US, Canada, and the rest of the world apply for entry into the Peewee Quebec Tournament (which is dubbed as the International Championship of Peewee Hockey). Thats right HUNDREDS. The tournament only accepts about a hundred teams. We just happen to be one of the select few who were given the privilege to be here. This isnt just any old tournament. It, quite literally, is the biggest thing in youth hockey. We met our bus outside the hotel and left for the Colisee at 4pm. The team seemed very loose on the trip. When we arrived, we were met by a tournament official, who directed us to carry all of the hockey equipment down through the bowels of the Colisee to our locker room. The hallways had been repainted, but it was evident that this was a pretty old building. Coach Mulvey told some of the kids about several times when he played in the Colisee during his time in the NHL. The magnitude of this event was starting to sink in. One other interesting note: It is widely known among the NHL community that

Le Colisee du Quebec has the best hotdogs around. Since the Quebec Nordiques moved to Colorado to become the Colorado Avalanche, there has not been an NHL team playing in the building (although several Junior and minor teams play at the Colisee). So instead of claiming that they have the best hotdogs in the NHL, locals simply say, we have the best hotdogs in all of hockey. A bold claim, but one that they back up well. We had quite a bit of time to kill before game time, so most of the team went up into the stands to watch the game before ours. Team England was playing against the Boston Bruins. At first sight, it was rather odd seeing peewee hockey on such a big stage in such a big building. At 5pm, the team met back in the locker room. The captains led a short warmup, then everyone put on their equipment. About 20 minutes prior to game time, we were directed to get our team picture taken, then returned to the locker room for our final pre-game chat. Then the moment came. Zero hour. The time when the team would set foot on the Colisee ice. The team flooded out of the locker room whooping and hollering. After a quick 2-minute warmup, both teams lined up facing each other on the opposite blue lines. They skated toward each other and exchanged team pins, which is a very popular pastime at this tournament. Game time. The hometown Quebec Citadelles versus the Washington Little Caps. The bright lights were on as the teams lined up for the opening face-off. On the Little Caps side was Luke Aaron (left wing), Ty Kashur (center), Alex Guerere (right wing), Patrick Young (left defense), Christopher Diner (right defense) and Jay Williams in net. The puck dropped and the game was on. A few series of back and forth plays quickly showed the Citadelles and all the hometown fans that the team from Washington could actually play their game. About 5 minutes in, Kashur grabbed the puck and shot through the neutral zone. Luke Aaron came up the ice with him on his right side. A Citadelle defenseman stepped in front of Aaron and blatently impeded his progress into the offensive zone. The referee raised his arm and called the Quebec player for a 2-minute interference penalty. This was just the break we needed. We sent out one of our power play lines to try and put the first goal on the board. Andrew Baron sustained solid possession low in the zone, working in tandem with Jeremy Fridling. They worked the puck back higher in the zone to Patrick Young who was able to get the puck on net. The goalie froze the puck, allowing us to change out power play units. Ty Kashur won the face-off and the team set up their power play formation. The puck moved low in the zone to Sean Miller, who found Alex Grose in front of the net. Grose ripped the shot in traffic, but it quickly found the Quebec goaltenders chest.

Quebec killed off the rest of the power play, leaving the score tied at 0. However, the Little Caps showed that they would be a tough opponent to get past. The shot count after the power play showed Washington with 8 and Quebec with 3. There were a few more minutes of end-to-end even strength play. A scrum low in the Little Capss defensive corner led to Alex Grose taking a two minute penalty for Roughing. The Citadelles now had a chance to get on the board. Brett Topolski and Matt Midgley stepped out as the Little Caps penalty killing forwards and successfully burned about 30 seconds off the clock as the puck cleared the zone. The Little Caps caught another break when the Citadelles were called for hooking with about 1:30 left in their power play. This would lead to over a minute of 4-on-4 play, which always yields speed and scoring chances. The Little Caps worked the puck low in the offensive zone. Jordan Jancze ripped a quick shot on net, which was turned away. However, Jeremy Fridling was there to take a few cracks at the rebounds and almost found the back of the net. The puck bounced out high in the zone up the boards, and a Citadelle forward picked it up. He skated up the ice with speed, gaining separation on the first Little Cap backchecker. He then sliced through both Little Caps defensemen to find himself alone on the goalie. A quick flick of the wrist and the score was now 1-0 in favor of Quebec. The hometown crowd went wild. The sound was deafening. Fans were banging on the boards, yelling at the top of their lungs, and waving a thousand blue and white Quebec flags. That sound was enough to show our team that they didnt want to hear that again. But the crowd would roar again over a minute later when the Citadelles won a faceoff deep in the Little Caps defensive zone rifled the puck into the back of the net. Quebec had a few more scoring chances late in the period, but Jay Williams would not let them capitalize. Showing his determination to keep Quebec from finding the net again, Williams threw a few big kick saves and glove saves to ward off any further Citadelle strikes and keep the score manageable for his team. And on one occasion, he showed off his patented slinky-spine goaltending maneuvers. The first period ended up with a score of 2-0 in favor of Quebec. It was time to get this game back in hand, and the team did just that. Washington won the opening faceoff and quickly got the puck deep into the Citadelle zone. Ty Kashur moved the puck to Luke Aaron on the left side of the net, who beat the goaltender to cut the Citadelle lead to a single goal. The Little Caps now had Quebec on their heels and generated a number of other

great scoring chances. Washington had finally started to show off their passing prowess. Chris Clark picked up the puck high in the Little Caps defensive zone and quickly passed to Matt Midgley breaking through the defensive zone. Midgley found Alex Grose cutting across the offensive blue line. Grose walked in on Citadelle net and fired the puck past the defenseman. The puck came at an angle the goaltender was not expecting, and he misjudged the direction. The puck found the right side of the net, and the Little Caps players converged in a brief celebration, finding the game tied. The Quebec fans in the stands (which was about 95% of the arena) were silent. And, boy, was that music to Washingtons ears. The lead would be short-lived, though. A minute later, the Citadelles had another faceoff deep in the Little Caps zone. Quebec won the draw and ripped the puck quickly on the net, putting them back on top 3-2. As the final seconds ticked off the clock in the second period, Ty Kashur found Alex Guerere breaking behind the Citadelle defense in the neutral zone. Burning the Quebec D, Guerere cut in on net and made a nifty move that had the goalie beat. The shot was placed three inches too far to the right, ringing the puck off the post and into the corner. The second period ended with the 3-2 score, but all of Quebec was aware that the Washington Little Caps came to win, not just to be here. Both teams went back to their respective locker rooms as the zamboni came out to resurface the ice. After making a few adjustments and being reassured that the game was still ripe for the picking, the Little Caps came back out and took the ice. Fifteen minutes, do or die. The third period started off with Quebec gaining the puck and quickly establishing long spans of sustained possession deep the Washington defensive zone. Had it not been for the rock-solid performance of Jay Williams, the Citadelles could have easily had a 5 or 6 goal lead. On one occasion, a Citadelle forward picked up the puck and the top of the circles and ripped a hard snap shot through a thick screen. Somehow, Williams managed to catch a glimpse of the puck and threw his glove out to make the save only 3 inches from the goal line. Washington had a few more scoring chances, but most of the third period was controlled by Quebec. With about six minutes left in the game, Quebec found the back of the net again, putting them up 4-2. Late in the game, Jeremy Fridling was able to break a quick rush up the ice and made a quick crossing pass in front of the net that almost found the one-timer. As the clock ticked down, Quebec tightened up their team defense and allowed very few opportunities. Time expired and the crowd went wild.

While this may not have been the final score that we wanted, we undoubtedly showed that we are able to play with the best teams out there. Im sure the Citadelles would prefer not to face us again. This was a game that could have gone either way. The experience of playing in front of this Colisee crowd that was so overwhelmingly supportive of the hometown team is one that the Little Caps players wont soon forget. Losing this first game moves us to the other side of the bracket. Our next game in this double-elimination tournament will be Friday night at 5:30pm at the Arpidrome. The team changed back into the street clothes and went up into the stands to watch the next game. At 8pm, the players got together to meet the billet families, with whom they would be staying with for the remainder of the week. The players grabbed their luggage, kissed mom and dad good-bye, and then headed off with their respective families. Over and out from Quebec City.

Peewee Quebec Update Days 3 & 4 I apologize for not having the updates out as quickly and frequently as I had originally hoped. I have caught a nasty bug up here that has gotten progressively worse as the week has gone on. I haven't had the energy to put everything together in a timely fashion. I hope to get the other updates out soon. Wednesday (Day 3) was Snowpark day. We did not schedule any games. The team rolled out at 9:30am for a full day of fun at the snow park. It is basically like a ski resort, only you go down the hills on innertubes instead. They have everything from single-person tubes up to huge boats that hold 6-10 people. Needless to say, everyone was worn out at the end of the day. Thursday (Day 4) was a day set aside to have some fun with our host families and to thank them for opening their homes to our boys. We started off the day by picking up the boys and riding the bus to a lake where everyone had the chance to skate outside. It was another beautiful, sunny, and (this may sound repetitive) COLD day. Coach Andy and Coach Mulvey and the boys had those skates on and were racing across the lake in no time. The parents moved a little slower, but the dozen or so who skated had a great time. The lake was bigger than any of us expected, and the scenery/surrounding hills were very beautiful. A perfect choice for an experience our boys have never had - skating on a lake. Many commented on what it would be like to live in such a place where you could go out skating any time you wanted without paying admission or ice slot fees! Our next stop was the Fleur de Lis mall - for a food court lunch. Well supplied with food, camera batteries, and muffins, we headed out to the next activity. The bus stopped next at an outdoor hockey rink where the billet family dad, mom, and kid hockey players joined the boys and Coach Andy, Coach Mulvey, Mike Midgley, and Peter Grose for some pretty exciting pick up pond hockey. It was fast and furious out there for an hour and a half, with lots of goals going in those nets. The hockey players came off hot and sweaty - the rest of the spectators were FREEZING as they

worked the cameras. After the hockey, we all headed back to the hotel for a quick break and change of clothes, then headed out to Mont Tourbillon for a buffet dinner with our host families and our wonderful bus driver Robert (pronounced Row-Bear). With the beautifully lit ski slopes as a background, we had a delicious Italian buffet and had a great time learning more about our host families. Then as our wonderful translator mom Diane Diner MC'd in French and English each player presented a Washington DC gift basket, a Little Caps hat, and a hockey pin to their families, and pictures were taken all around. The players returned to their billet family houses and the parents returned to the hotel for a good night's sleep. Over and out from Quebec. I hope to have the Day 6-8 updates out soon.

Peewee Quebec Dispatch Day 5 Day 5 (Friday) saw the Little Caps players getting used to life in Quebec City. Having spent 3 nights with their billet families already, living with their second families started to feel like normal. The families have been very gracious and the kids are having a blast. The team met at the Colisee Monday morning to catch some of the tournament action and trade team pins. The pin-trading activities are always a big thing for the players. Each came to Quebec with about 20 of their own pins. They sought out players from other teams and other pin-traders to see what they might be able to get. Many traders have pins from teams who attended the tournament in past years, including several Reston Raider teams. The pins will serve as reminders to each player of their time in Quebec. After a few hours at the Colisee, the team returned to the hotel for lunch and a mandatory study hall. Since the players are missing 7 days of school, keeping up with their studies becomes very important. Friday evening saw the Little Caps playing in their second game of the tournament against Richoleau, a team from Montreal. Richoleau lost their first tournament game in a shootout to a strong Edmonton Oilers team. Coach Mulvey spoke to the Richoleau coaches before the game and found out that they had only lost 7 games all year. They are a very strong defense team and rely on that defense instead of a lot of prolific scoring The Little Caps were ready to avenge a first round loss of their own. The players we excited and ready to play. Richoleau took control of the game early. Their size, speed and pressure made them a tough team to play against. But the Little Caps were able to hold off the waves of attack to keep the game close. Richoleau scored midway through the first period, and tallied a second on two minutes later. The first period finished with the Little Caps down 2-0. The second period saw more end-to-end action, but the Little Caps were not able to generate a lot of offensive chances on the strong Richoleau defense. Tanner Jones made a number of big stops to keep it a two-goal game by the second intermission. The third period saw a rejuvenated Little Caps team ready to get the game back. They were able to sustain more offense and adjust to the tough pressure of the Richoleau attack. The renewed effort was felt by Richoleau, as they appeared to begin to wear down. Richoleau found the back of the net midway through the third, but the Little Caps would not be deterred. Flurry after flurry came on the offensive

end of the Little Caps as they attempted to crack the opposing goaltender. With Richoleau seemingly on their heels, the Little Caps rang several posts and were stopped on a number of quality offensive opportunities. Time wound down and Richoleau tightened up their defense to win the game 3-0. But the Little Caps left their mark. Having played a very successful team from Montreal with such intensity, the Little Caps players showed that they would never give up. Opponents would need to be willing to fight to the end. The loss to Richoleau caused the Little Caps to be eliminated from the tournament. While all teams would like to be able to go deep into the tournament, the double-elimination format against strong competition makes that a tough task. Even though there are no tournament games for the Little Caps, there have been 6-7 additional exhibition games scheduled against teams from around the US, Canada and Europe. The next 4 days will see a tough schedule against teams that the Little Caps players would not otherwise have seen. These games will also serve as a great opportunity to prepare for the upcoming league playoff games in a few weeks when we get back to DC. The team is a bit disappointed about the final result of the tournament games, but they are very proud with how they performed. They worked hard and showed that they are a force to be reckoned with. The draw the team received was much tougher than most, but it allowed the team to see how strong they matched up against some of the best programs in Canada. I will keep everyone updated on the teams exhibition games and additional team activities throughout the rest of the week. Over and out from Quebec.

Peewee Quebec Update Exhibition Game Recap Part 1 Even though I have been out of commission for the past week with this nasty bug, I wanted to take time to give everyone a recap of the Exhibition Games that the Little Caps played over the past week. I made a point to schedule as many tough teams as possible. Not only does this give us a chance to see how we match up against the best teams in the tournament, but it gives us a great chance to prepare for the upcoming USA Hockey playoffs. Many would agree that I overachieved in getting some top-notch teams lined up. Below is Part 1 of the Washington Little Caps Exhibition Game recap. WASHINGTON LITTLE CAPS vs MINUTEMEN FLAMES (Boston) FEBRUARY 14, 2009 Ending the month of January, the Minutemen Flames (out of the Boston area) ranked #2 in the US at the Peewee Major level. That's right, #2 out of over 100 teams. The team has speed, size, skill and excellent coaching. And that is not mentioning the fact that they pretty much have their pick of the top players in the Greater Boston Area. After losing their two tournament games and being knocked out of the tournament, the Little Caps had every reason to give up. However, the players did the exact opposite. They knew that the Flames would be a tough test, but the team wanted to see how they stacked up. The Flames came out skating extremely hard and showed why they were #2. They dominated the puck possession in the first period, but the Little Caps matched their level of skating effort. Every 30 second shift the Little Caps players skated saw them coming off the ice completely drained, but when the time came to step on the ice for the next shift, they were ready to go. The Little Caps's effort never waned. The Flames scored 3 goals in the first period and 3 more in the second to lead the Little Caps 6-0 going into the second intermission. Jay Williams was brilliant in net, having faced over 40 shots in the first two periods alone. The Little Caps did not let off the gas in the third period, showing that they started to become more comfortable with the speed of the game. The Flames scored their 7th goal early in the third period, but the Little Caps still didn't give up. Seven minutes into the third period, the Flames took penalty and the Little Caps got a chance to test out their power play. Andrew Baron won the face-off and got the puck to Jordan Jancze, who sent the puck deep into the Flames defensive zone. Jancze won the battle in the corner and got the puck to Patrick Young on the left halfboards. Young move the puck back to Luke

Aaron on the middle of the blue line, who ripped a quick shot through traffic onto the Flames net. The Minutemen goaltender made the pad save, but the rebound bounce into the slot. Baron jammed the puck a few times until he found daylight on the left side of the net to score the power play goal. The Flames scored one more goal before the end of the game to win 8-1. However, the Little Caps had played them to a 2-1 third period. The game was a great test to see how the Little Caps could keep up with the speed of the Flames, and they performed brilliantly. *** Note: After losing their opening tournament game 3-2 to the NY Rangers, the Minuteman Flames ran the tables in the tournament to find themselves in the final four of the tournament, which is being played today (Sunday Feb 19). WASHINGTON LITTLE CAPS vs BURNABY WINTER CLUB (British Columbia) FEBRUARY 15, 2009 In September 2008, Burnaby had to win a 16-team tournament to decide which team would represent British Columbia in the 2009 Peewee Quebec Tournament. Once they arrived in Quebec, they won their first two tournament games to prove that they belonged. The Little Caps came out in the game with the same intensity they showed against the Minutemen Flames. The period saw back and forth action with both teams missing on quality scoring opportunities. Tanner Jones was in net for Washington and turned away several tough combinations on Burnaby rushes. Burnaby scored late in the first period, then again early in the second period to take a quick 2-0 lead. But the Little Caps would not back down. Washington gained the offensive zone and cycled the puck in the corner create an opening in front of the net. The Burnaby goaltender stopped the first shot, but the rebound popped out into the high slot. Chris Clark pinched in from the right point and roofed the puck to make the game 2-1. Burnaby scored 2 more goals in the third period to win the game 4-1. Tanner Jones turned in a strong performance in the Washington net, facing almost 40 shots. *** Note: Burnaby lost a close game to the Philadelphia Flyers in the third round of the tournament on Thursday.
