Barristers Cup International Hockey Tournament - 3rd Place Finish






The Barristers Cup International Hockey Tournament was held this past weekend. I played with the Ramsey County Bar Association team. Other teams compete from Hennepin County, Duluth, and Thunder Bay, Ontario. Thunder Bay fielded an excellent team again this year and won the Cup for the second year in a row. My RCBA team lost to Thunder Bay in the first game 3-0. However, we came back and beat Duluth for 3rd Place. The Duluth game was extremely close and went into sudden death overtime tied 1-1. After 10 minutes of overtime play, with the score still tied at 1-1, we went into a 3 player shootout. We scored on our first and second attempts and I was able to stop both of their chances for our victory.






Here are some photographs of the team and the game.
