Daily temperatures are expected to remain above freezing for the rest of the week and with 15-20 mm of rainfall forecast for Friday and Saturday. Temperatures have been significantly warmer than normal, which has caused snowpack to begin to melt, states the NVCA Flood Duty Officer, resulting in an increase in water levels throughout the watershed. Stream banks can be slippery and unstable, which combined with extremely cold water temperatures can create hazardous conditions around our rivers and streams. There is also the potential for ice jams and localized flooding. No major flooding is anticipated at this time. Hazardous conditions may exist around all waterbodies, as there is a high risk of life-threatening injury if a person falls into the extremely cold water.

The local squad doubled the Little Britain Merchants 6-3 on Friday, downed the North Kawartha Knights in a 4-3 overtime tilt on Saturday and dropped the Clarington Eagles 3-1 on Tuesday night at the arena. Those results put the fourth- place Bruins just three points behind the third-place Eagles. They face the Eagles again at the arena on Friday at 7:45 p.m., their last home game of the regular season, and then face the winless Merchants in Little Britain on Saturday. Two wins will put the Bruins in third place. Given the fact that the Little Britain Merchants haven't won a game all season and they showed up at the arena on Friday with only 10 men on the bench - which SNOW QUEEN - Snowmobile racer Mia Meek, 13, (yellow machine, right), waits for the starting signal at the beginning of her first race of the season.

  • Comparing the Success of Developing Professional Hockey Players from the CHL Drafts
    Comparing the Success of Developing Professional Hockey Players from the CHL Drafts ADAM WEST & TJ MILLAR Bachelor’s Thesis Sports and Leisure Manage- ment, Vierumäki Campus 2019 Abstract April 23rd, 2019 Authors Adam West & TJ Millar Degree Program Sports and Leisure Management, Vierumäki Campus Thesis Title Number of pages and appendix pages Comparing the Success of Developing Professional Hockey Players from the CHL Drafts 34 + 55 The purpose of this study is to outline the differentiation of success of drafting and develop- ing Professional Hockey Players amongst the three Major Junior Leagues (WHL, OHL, QMJHL) in the CHL. It analyzes three development leagues that help contribute to the Major Junior Rosters; The Alberta Midget Hockey League (AMHL), The Greater Toronto Minor Midget Hockey League (GTMMHL), and The Quebec Midget AAA Hockey league (QMAAA). The three Major Junior leagues select players for their teams via a drafting process. When players hit a certain age, they become eligible to be drafted, and teams select the players they believe are the best available to come play for their team. The OHL and the QMJHL draft their players after their 15-year-old season and are eligible to play for their respective clubs in their upcoming 16-year-old season. The Western Hockey league drafts players after their 14-year-old season but players cannot play for their teams until their 16-year-old season as well. Data was collected from the development leagues (AMHL, GTMMHL, QMAAA) over a 5- year period analyzing players selected in the 3 Major Junior drafts and determining if they: played in the CHL, were drafted to the NHL, played Professional Hockey, and if they played until the age of 20.
