Well that was an event. What a great day and really no significant events good and or bad. This will be a lot shorter than last nights speech as we are here to celebrate a great day, these friendships and the 2024 KCUP Champions.
But first we need to recognize last years champs and for those that do not know we give out the swag to last years champs at the current closing ceremonies. Therefore, can I please have up Last Years Winners Team Sturgeon: Aaron Jermyn, Brian Taylor (C), Coty Beers, Roger Stephan, Paolo Pechia, Jeff Andreoff, Steve Saunders, Todd Shelton, Travis Richards, Guido Dellunto and Troy Dowswell (G).
Now for this years Winners! What a great run and it was a team were everyone contributed. Good Drafting Rog!. And it started with “The Lion” in the Yellow helmet. He certainly answered so many questions from last year! GSUS…. Please bring up your Team so you can have a shot and we can celebrate and toast your win.


The Awards!
VESNA – Is the tightest goalie and has contributed to his teams victory on and off the ice. This was an easy pick with some major saves on his way to the championship. Please press the flesh for our favourite Large Animal Surgeon Brendan Ringwood. Your 2024 Vesna Winner!
TONYA HARDING – Big Dick Move of the Tournament. It was a slow start this year and I did not think we would see it. Usually it is so obvious. There was a few nasty penalties, some groping, some trips and some even some that sold the trips. But it was this event after the final that really sealed it. It came from within team ranks and something that should never happen at this Cup event. A callout of a teammate, a challenge and a accusations of poor play. This Men’s beer league hockey at best and we are here to celebrate the fact we get to do this. There should be no reason to chirp to the point of making anyone feel lesser than they do. With that said I am certainly no softy but cmon man???? Troy High Voltage Doswell! Come on up . . .
MVP – Most all around player. This is simple and really annoying but he is fun to the watch and he is passionate and competitive while he is running through and over guys. All with a smile on his face. Ethan the LION Strong Man C’Mon up! That is what I call redemption. From being last years Emanuel Sandhu Award Winner to actually ripping this tourney apart, Congrats!
KAWARTHA PUCK PIG – Most Goals in Regulation. Goes to a very likable guy and a great easy skater which helped his team to the final. Nathaniel Stinson with 9 in regulation. Come on up my friend. Honourable mention. Ethan Stinson, Aaron Jermyn with 8, New Comer Charles Cochrane and Babyface Kimble.
EMANUEL SANDHU – Biggest Loser/Over Ranking: Hey this one breaks my heart as he has had some awesome tournaments, is on a lot of these awards, has won many championships and his is my forever wingman from our tournament in Montreal. But today I and I think his team expected more especially as a Captain. Some things are nice when they are soft and weak but Hockey Teams and their Captain is not one of them…. Cammy Mansfield please come up and take this award for yourself and the entire Orange Team.
ALBERT AWARD – Most Improved. This guy has been working hard playing 2 -3 nights per week and probably because he does not want to be home but nonetheless he played very well, contributed large and was a positive presence (for once….LOL as he is usually one of the Jackass Award finalists). Happy to hand this one out to Mike Roller Ball Fagan.
Guys that is a wrap! I appreciate everyone of you for continuing to support this tourney and our respective friendships. Special Thanks to BK, Baller, Garett for the Pics and the Drone Work and of course the Brossmann.,
