The Bulldogs kicked off their 07-08 Exhibition schedule last night in Duncan against the Cowichan Valley Capitals in an "all rookie game"
Big thanks goes out to Capital's SuperFans Lizz and Chris, as their website CapsSuperFans.com was the only place I could find the score and summary of last night's game when I went into the radio station this morning!
CapsSuperFans.com is a great BCHL website. Of course it is Capital-themed (in case the name didn't give it away) but they have some great information on there- newspaper articles, pictures, a message board, etc. I would suggest checking it out if you are itching for more BCHL info. I wouldn't suggest going there if you just want to cause trouble. They won't take any of that!
The Caps led 1-0, 2-1, and 4-1 last night, out shooting the Bulldogs 38-21. Bulldogs goal scorers were Andrew Hawkins and RJ Cetnarowski. Goal tending duties were split by Vincent Nelson and Kyle Sykes.

The Bulldogs return home tonight for their first Exhibition game at the 'Pound as they host the Victoria Grizzlies at 7pm. The Grizzlies have been through plenty of changes so far this off season. Then those changes changed....If you haven't been following that story down there, here's a brief summary. After the Grizzlies season ended with a second round loss last year to the Cowichan Valley Capitals, changes were made in the coaching staff as the team parted ways with Rylan Ferster and co. In came former Burnaby Express coach Rick Lanz as the new head coach. Before Lanz would even coach a game he was gone, accepting a scouting position with the Colorado Avalanche just last week. The timing was obviously awful for the Grizzlies, losing their new head coach a week before training camp. They have filled the coaching vacancy internally, as GM Jackson Penny will take over the coaching duties. Penny has coaching experience at the pro level in Europe. It will be interesting to see how the Grizzlies might change (or stay the same) under the guidance of Penny.The puck drop tonight is 7:00pm at the Pound, I hope to see you there!

Canada opened the Super Series '07 yesterday with a come from behind 4-2 victory over the Russians. Canada actually scored 4 unanswered goals after falling behind 2-0 early in the first period. One of those goals was scored by former Burnaby Express star Kyle Turris, on a penalty shot. Canada next sees action tomorrow, again at 6am for those of us in BC. Good thing I'm at the station and on the air at 6 anyway!
I will have a quick report on tonight's game posted later this evening or early tomorrow!
Regards,
Hammer
