I remember when Kelowna was awarded the Mem Cup.

The Hurricanes staff felt their bid was solid and thought it was 50/50 between Leth and Kelowna.

I would have to think now with Maxy completely out of the picture. Lethbridge is probably the leading candidate for the Mem Cup.

We had the Russia ADT Challenge....packed the Enmax Centre, something like 5600. The we also hosted the World Under 17 Championships.

It doesn't hurt that the Canes wouldn't look out of place on the ice, even a couple years down the road, management here is pretty solid.

Just my two bits
