Wolf Talk
From November 26 to 29, the
Wolves took part in the Kitch-
ener Blueline Tournament.
After finishing the round robin
with 3 wins and 1 tie, the
Wolves advanced to their semi-
final game against longtime
rival, the London Jr. Knights.
In an exciting game that went
into overtime, the Wolves
never stopped coming and,
with just 2 minutes to go,
scored the winning goal.
At 4:30pm, the championship
game took place with the Wa-
terloo Wolves facing the Barrie
Colts. It was a well-matched
pairing, but it was the Wolves
who came out on top, winning
the Kitchener Blueline Cham-
pionship with a final score of 2
– 1. Wolves’ forward, Evan
Canzi, was named tournament
MVP.

Waterloo Wolves are the Kitchener Blueline AAA Champions!
On October 15, 2009, the Waterloo Wolves trav-
elled to the Nation’s Capitol for the Ottawa Sena-
tor’s Midget AAA Showcase. This was the Wolves’
first time participating in this major tournament.
From their first game on Friday, October 16 to the
Championship game on Sunday, October 18, the
Wolves were unstoppable. They took on all comers
and played some superb hockey, with 6 wins and 1
tie.
The sponsors, Midget Operating Committee, Wa-
terloo Minor Hockey, family members and fans
congratulate the Waterloo Wolves AAA on their
success in Ottawa.
