The AJHL and the Fort McMurray Oil Barons announced details this morning of the first-ever AJHL Northern Classic, which is set for November 26th at MacDonald Island Park in Fort McMurray. It will feature the first junior hockey game to be played outdoors in Canada, as the Oil Barons will face the Drayton Valley Thunder.
I spoke earlier today with Oil Barons president and governor Andrew Boutilier, who is also on the organizing committee for the event. Andrew and I go way back, as he was one of my colour commentators when I did Oil Barons broadcasts several years ago. Here is what he had to say about the event.
News and views on the AJHL's Grande Prairie Storm, and other hockey activities in Grande Prairie, through the eyes of Storm Play-by-Play broadcaster Jeff Henson. The opinions expressed are Jeff's own and not necessarily those of the Grande Prairie Storm hockey club or FREE-FM Radio.
