League Award Winners - Lough wins, James McDonald/Jamie Amos interview, WEAR WHITE



Here's the full list of the 2013 BCHL Award winners. Congrats to all the winners, and congrats to Bulldogs Captain Ryan Lough especially on winning the Coastal Bob Fenton Memorial Trophy. He's proof you can be a great player, a great leader AND that you can do it with class.

The British Columbia Hockey League is pleased to announce its award winners for the 2012-13 season.

The winners were chosen after a survey of BCHL coaches.

It is a HUGE FILE, so please be patient when downloading it.

Speaking of downloading - While I'm offering up this audio and doing all this blog work lately, it's a great time to say THANKS to all the blog sponsors, and all those parents of Bulldog players and die-hard Bulldog fans that donate to this blog (shameless plug - the donate link is up there over there ----->) to make it all go, and all worth my while. I have been through several audio hosting companies already as I have "filled up" my quota of storage space, it's nice to get some support besides my own pocket when I am looking for other options!


Here's your heads up for what you need to know for Friday/Saturday and Monday!
