This is just plain crazy...maybe the back up goalie was amazingly proficient at opening and closing the bench door, and as such, he was a factor in the game?
Just plain sad, along with crazy. I hope Mount Royal wins again, and I hope if SAIT does win in the end it feels hollow and as tainted as it is. Apologies to former Bulldog Warren Muir, who plays for SAIT.
Alberta college hockey championship game to be replayed over technicality
CALGARY - A Calgary hockey team that won the Alberta Colleges Athletic Conference championship on Sunday is now being told the game will have to be replayed.
The Mount Royal University Cougars defeated the SAIT Trojans by 1-0, taking the series 3-2 and finally breaking the Trojans' four-year winning streak.
But on Tuesday, the ACAC ruled the Cougars used a backup goalie who wasn't eligible and ordered another championship game be played on Saturday.
The unusual situation came as a result of an injury to Cougars' starting goalie Justin Cote in Game 4.
Cote wasn't available to play in the next game, so backup Brett Bothwell played instead, leading the Cougars to the win.
But the Cougars brought in another goalie to back up Bothwell, and even though he never played in the game, he was deemed ineligible because he is only a part-time student at the university.

Now here's something different - Rod Phillips, the long time voice of the Edmonton Oilers (37 years) was honoured last night by the Oilers with his name - and the number of games he called (over 3000) raised to the rafters. Cool stuff.
Last but not least, here's your Alberni Golf Club Men's Club update.
Seventy men teed it up on Sunday as another Men’s Club Season got under way. The weather was fine, although there was a slight shower as we headed out onto the links, but it only lasted for one hole. The sun even tried to come out at one point. So much for the weather report.
Thanks so much to the firm of Duncan, Sabine, Collyer Accountants for sponsoring the four man best ball.
