Congratulations to the YSE Minor
Atoms on winning the Bell Capital Cup on January 2. The annual
tournament held in Ottawa from December 30 to January 2 is a prestigious
event that attracts teams from around the World and is a Guinness Record
holder for largest tournament with annual team attendance at over 500
teams a year. This year the
YSE Minor Atoms, under the direction of Head Coach Kevin McHenry, headed
to Ottawa and compiled a record of 7 wins and 0 losses with 34 goals for
and 7 goals against. The round robin saw the Express defeat the
New Jersey Rockets 4 - 1, Whitby Wildcats 3 - 2, North York Rangers 6 -
1 and the Boston Red Rangers 7 - 0. In the Quarter-Final YSE beat
the Mississauga Reps 6 - 1 then the Philadelphia Jr. Flyers 3 - 2 in the
Semi-Final. The Championship game set up a battle between
undefeated teams in the Cleveland Barons and our YSE Minor Atoms.
The first period was a battle that saw neither team score. The
Express then exploded for 4 goals in the second period and added another
in the third to walk away with a 5 - 0 victory and the Bell Capital Cup
Championship.
Congratulations to the players and
staff on a great tournament.
