Mass Final 40 Weekend Coming Up
The Mass Hockey Final 40 weekend is coming up, scheduled for Sat.-Sun. May 18-19 at the New England Sports Center in Marlborough, Mass.
Here in the Commonwealth, the temps have been in the 40s all day, plus there was up to an inch of snow in the Berkshires last night, so perhaps hockey season is coming back around to us.
The Final 40 weeekend consists of 120 players, with 40 players at each of the three age groups: the '02s (Select 17), the '03s (Select 16), and the '04s (Select 15).
It's an honor for players to get this far in the three-weekend tryouts. So congratulations to all who have made it to this point. Each age group will be whittled down further over the weekend, and those are the players who will represent the Mass District at the US Player Development Camps in June and July
Best of luck to all.
'02 Final 40 (Select 17)
'03 Final 40 (Select 16)

Exposure Cup This Weekend
The Exposure Cup All-Star Weekend is coming up, on Saturday and Sunday April 27-28, at the twin-sheet Fidelity Bank Rink in Worcester, Mass.
This showcase, put on by Matt Miles, is limited to '04 and '05 birthdates from the U.S. and Canada. A good number of prep schools will be on hand, with tables set up for more info. Top college coaches will be behind the bench.
There will be showcase games on Saturday evening, starting at 4:30 pm, and Sunday morning, starting at 11:15 am.
The guest speaker, after the Prep School Fair on Saturday afternoon, will be U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame referee Paul Stewart, who does not lack for great stories. If you miss him Saturday, this typist highly recommends his book, 'Ya Wanna Go? Unlike many hockey bios, which are little more than Ambien in print, Stewey's book delivers the goods. I read it in a sitting or two. It's available on Amazon. Here's the link: Ya Wanna Go?
