RED V.S WHITE SCRIMMAGE SELLS OUT IN CALGARY


Yesterday in Calgary, team Canada played a scrimmage game of Red v.s White. The game had everything except hitting. Sidney Crosby and his line-mates (Iginla and St.Louis) had met there match. As Martin Broudeur (of the Red team) stopped all the shot's he faced from the Crosby line. He was not the only goalie who was making some saves. As Luongo (of the white) was keeping his team in it. Every time Luongo made a save the fan's chanted " Looo." Team red ended up winning 3-2 in a shootout.Kings forward Ryan Smyth and Duck's forward Corey Perry scored for the White in the shootout lose.Flyer's forward Jeff Carter and Shark's forward Patrick Marleau scored for the Red in the shootout win. So now we'll just wait until the February to see who will make the final cut.

TEAM CANADA INVITES SPEZZA TO TRAINING CAMP


On August 11th 2009, team Canada announced that they had invited Jason Spezza to Canada'a training camp."I think I was just excited for the opportunity,'' Spezza said during a conference call. "I don't know if I was any more relieved or anything but I was just excited. I had still made it one of my goals, even though I wasn't invited to the initial camp, that I was going to try to prove to them I belong on the team and have a good start to the season.'' With Spezza being invited to Canada's camp, now Spezza will not be going to Senators camp. But he's not the only Senator. The other Senator that will not be going to the Sens camp is Dany Heatley(who asked to be traded out of Ottawa). Now we will just wait and see who makes Canada's team for 2010.
