Devils verse Stampede at Tekapo tomorrow, any predictions??
Its good to see the alternative rinks being used for pre-season games. Maybe next year there could be a whole round of preseason games at those rinks.
early reports are a 4-2 win for Devils. Eaden and Mitchell didn’t play and Justin may not have played much or at all either.
CRD won 4-2 in an even battle that could’ve gone STP’s way if they had capitalised on the opportunitys. Some frantic goal line activity by the Devils prevented a couple of certain goals from being scored.
Shots were apparently reasonably even and a low penalty count.
Bet they could add all the sports cliches to the results tho!!!
With some organising there could be a pre-season tournament somewhere with the three teams, possibly on a rotating basis between the rinks.
I dont know about the other teams but we would be fairtly hard pressed to find time in our schedules for more then that one pre season game, clearly the stampede had ample time. Good idea though. how was the ice and crowd at tekapo?
yeah not sure how keen teams would be to have a tourney beforehand. IB’s are just getting back from worlds, imports are arriving, chch has exhibition cup. There isn’t a lot of time to get ready for the season so committing to a tourney might not hold value to the individual teams. Nice for fans who are hockey starved after the summer. The current pre-season games seem to fill that void already.
It didn’t look the ice was too bad but have seen worse. Crowd was between 50-75.
Good to see that the IBs are only travelling to Melbourne next year for Div 2.

There is actually, drink, drink bourbon, listen to death metal, throw bottles at oncoming cars, start fights at the local pub, abuse passers by outta your car, lap the main street all day, I mean and thats only some of the options…….
I guess tekapos a tad more remote and a smaller population than gore youd have to take into account to
True. I forgot about those exciting things. It almost makes me miss Howl at the Moon.
You forgot to add riding the sheep by the roundabout and attempting to negotiate the roundabout sideways.

I think at this time of year, Gore has about 10 times the population. There’s probably well less than a thousand in Tekapo at the moment.
