TRIBUNE PHOTO BY JON KOZUB/WINNIPEG JETS Stonewall’s Ryder Kirk had an opportunity that most hockey players only dream of. The Stonewall Blues novice player was the Scotiabank skater at the Winnipeg Jets versus the Dallas Stars game in Winnipeg on Feb. 14. Kirk won the Scotiabank contest that allowed him to lead his favorite NHL team on the ice and stand alongside them on the blue line for the singing of the national anthem. Winnipeg Jets’ captain Blake Wheeler challenged Kirk to a race around the net and back to the bench. Kirk of course accepted the challenge and told his parents that the experience was the best day of his life. 14 The Stonewall Teulon Tribune Thursday, February 23, 2017 Stonewall cadet headed to biathlon nationals

By Brian Bowman There were plenty of wonderful stories told last weekend as the popular Scotiabank Hockey Day in Canada was held in Kenora. And the Interlake Lightning had a couple of in- teresting stories to tell from their weekend trip to Kenora. The Lightning were rubbing shoulders with the likes of Don Cherry, Lanny McDonald, and Ron MacLean before they put forth a great effort in a 6-5 overtime loss Saturday evening to the Kenora Thistles.
