phelps 6,787 Posted June 14, 2016 #991 Share Posted June 14, 2016 so, congrats to the Pens... but I absolutely don't agree with Crosby winning the Conn Smythe trophy...it should have gone to the Hagelin-Bonino-Kessel line alltogether...and being that "impossible", well, they should have at least recognized the great playoffs run by Bonino, Kessel or Letang... however, it's just a couple of days that we ended the 2015/2016 season, but I can't wait for the start of the new one (luckily we don't have to wait that much...the new CHL season is just around the corner...the start is scheduled for August 16th )...

hckošice 13,217 Posted June 20, 2016 Author #992 Share Posted June 20, 2016 Mexico puts on a hockey show Colombia, host teams win Pan-American tournament Colombia and Mexico won the men's and women's Panamerican tournaments respectively. Colombia's men’s team won the 3rd Annual Pan-American Ice Hockey Tournament held in Mexico City last weekend. The Colombians defeated Mexico’s second team in a 4-3 shootout victory to win the tournament. In the women’s tournament, the host nation rolled over Argentina 8-0. The tournament brought together teams from all over Latin America. Tournament hosts Mexico iced two teams in the men’s tournament, joined by two teams from Argentina, a team from Brazil, and eventual champions Colombia. Mexico and Argentina also iced two squads each in the women’s tournament along with Columbia. The tournament takes place each summer and for the third consecutive year. Host Mexico is the only Latin American country with international-size indoor ice arenas and participating in the IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship program while for the other countries the tournament is a great opportunity to compete internationally. Argentina, Brazil and Colombia only have small indoor rinks and Argentina additionally possesses an international-size outdoor rink in the southern city of Ushuaia that can be used during winter weeks in the southern hemisphere around this time of the year. Both Argentina and Brazil have played in the IIHF Inline Hockey World Championship for many years where another South American country has also been part of the program with Chile, a country that also has ice hockey activities with the Copa Invernadas set to take place in the southern city of Punta Arenas for the fourth consecutive year from 6-10 July.
