<p>July 13 is the annual Everett Silvertips Street Hockey Tournament in Everett. It's a great environment with food, (shitty) music and of course street hockey. We sent three teams last year and have three confirmed goalies this year!! Let's get three teams together and win this thing. Below is the link with more details.</p>

<p></p>
<p>The format is 4 on 4 plus a goalie. Max roster size is 8 players including the goalie. </p>
<p>Games usually start between 9 and 10 am and generally run until about 3pm if you make it to the finals. It's usually world cup style with 4 teams in a bracket and the top two advance to the semis. Depends on number of teams, I guess. </p>
<p></p>
<p>I am happy to assemble a list of players that are interested (although I may not be able to play this year) and we can figure out how to divvy up the teams later on. If you are interested, send me a message through the website or to my gmail address if you have it (not posting it on this website).</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thanks</p>

<p>The 3rd annual Portland Street Hockey Tournament is Saturday, September 29. The past two years, only one SSH team was allowed to play due to tourney size limitations. This year, the organizers have given the green light for a second Seattle team to enter the tournament! </p>

<p></p>
<p>Dave D, Jeff M, Erik C, Cam Green, Jim K, Greg O, Heavy D, Rob A, Dan M.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Let's get another team together and represent SSH. Rosters can accommodate up to 10 players including the goalie. 4 on 4 format (plus goalie). It's $20/pp to enter the tourney or $175 for an entire team. </p>
<p></p>
<p>If anyone is interested, let me know. But let me know <strong>soon</strong> because if we don't have enough for a 2nd team, then they will take another Portland area team. I'd like to get back to Bob, the organizer, by Aug 15. </p>
<p></p>
<p>It's a lot of fun, great surface, great city. Guaranteed 3 games in pool play, top 2 teams from each division make the playoffs. We won in 2010, last year we narrowly missed making it to the playoffs. Let's sent two teams and represent!</p>

Despite the addition of Cam Green and Ovi to last year's championship team, Typhoon (we were called Tsunami last year) not fare too well this year. After winning our first game rather easily 2-0 on goals by Cam Green and Erik, we lost a tough 1-0 game in game 2. Dan made about 100 saves including 2 penalty shots but we could not break through. All 4 teams in our division were 1-1 going into the 3rd game in pool play. So it was win and in, lose and go home. We lost our final game in pool play…

All 4 teams in our division were 1-1 going into the 3rd game in pool play. So it was win and in, lose and go home. We lost our final game in pool play 4-0 to the eventual champions, Team Alberta(?). They were called Strange Brew in the tourney but listed as Team Alberta in the write-up. I don't have a whole lotta respect for a team that whines and complains literally the entire game but they beat us and won it all so clearly were a pretty good team.<br />
<br />
The talent was much better this year and almost every game in the tourney was competitive. Dan was our MVP as he made some incredible saves, especially the last 2 games, and kept us in it. Sadly we could not click on offense and 2 goals over 3 games is not going to get it done.<br />

While the Tsunami are taking care of business in Vegas, we need to keep the tradition alive and continue the Saturday scrimmages. If we had a turnout like we did 2 weeks ago we should have plenty of players.<br />

Saturday is supposed to be a glorious day - Mostly Sunny with highs in the upper 50s. Does not get any better than that for late October.<br />
<br />
I played net 2 of the last 3 weeks so I am not going to be between the pipes this week. Plus I was putting zeroes on the scoreboard and people were complaining I was too good. I was being compared to Pavelec and Toskala because I am great with those long shots.<br />
<br />
Who is in? Who is out? And of course, who is is net?

Eight people were arrested, and at least four were hurt, Trooper John Reese said. Two were taken to hospitals. The town's police chief was hit in…

MARION, Ala. – Two Alabama families that had been fighting for years turned their feud into a full-scale riot Monday outside a small-town city hall, with up to 150 screaming people hurling tire irons and wielding baseball bats. Eight people were arrested, and at least four were hurt, Trooper John Reese said. Two were taken to hospitals. The town's police chief was hit in the head with a crowbar but was OK.<br />
<br />
The two- or three-year-old feud apparently prompted a fight earlier in the day at a high school, after a window was shot out of a home Sunday night. Then, "all hell broke loose" later in the day, said Sgt. Carlton Hogue of the Perry County Sheriff's Department.<br />
<br />
"It was a full-scale riot is what it was," said Tony Long, mayor of the town of 3,300 about 85 miles west of Montgomery.<br />
<br />
Hogue said the rioters were "throwing jack irons, throwing tire irons, anything they could get their hands on." Some people carried baseball bats and brooms.<br />
<br />
Reese said two people were arrested at the high school during the initial disturbance. Relatives of the people who were arrested followed officers to police headquarters at city hall, and then the melee erupted.<br />
<br />
Six more people were arrested at city hall, Reese said, and police called in reinforcements from surrounding cities. Some officers wore riot gear, and many planned to stay overnight to help maintain order.<br />
<br />
The mayor said he wasn't sure what sparked the fracas.<br />
<br />
"Everybody's trying to point the finger at everybody," he said.<br />
<br />
Judson College, a church-affiliated women's school with about 300 students in downtown Marion, issued an alert asking students to stay out of the downtown area for 24 hours as a precaution.
