02s and 05s Take Home the Big Prize

The Vikings fared very well in the Tier 2 Rumble on the Rink Tourney in Detroit this weekend, taking home 2 birth year championships and placing well in many others.

The 2005s dominated their bracket, going 3 and 0 in round robin play before defeating the Lambton Jr. Sting from across the Detroit river in Sarnia, Ontario 6-4  Great job boys!

The 2002's (PW AA) fared almost as well, going 2 and 1 in round robin play to secure a semi-final spot on Sunday morning.  They then defeated the Chicago Hawks in the play down game to make it to the championship against the Columbus Blue Jackets.  Regulation time wouldn't be enough to decide a champion, but a shootout win would!
