There is going to be lots of great hockey this weekend in Washington DC at the JWHL's Challenge Cup. My guess is that most of the D1 teams will have several commits playing in these games. It takes place Thursday thru Monday at two different rinks, Kettler (U19) and Rockville (U16 & U14). Some of the teams attending are:

        WASHINGTON PRIDE
        CHICAGO YOUNG AMERICANS
        LITTLE CAESARS
        NEWBRIDGE ACADEMY
        NAHA
        BOSTON SHAMROCKS
        OTTAWA LADY 67'S
        NORTHERN CYCLONES
        HONEYBAKED
        BELLE TIRE
        ANAHEIM LADY DUCKS
        CHICAGO MISSION
        BALMORAL HALL SCHOOL
        RIDLEY COLLEGE
        STANSTEAD COLLEGE
        ONTARIO HOCKEY ACADEMY
        PACIFIC STEELERS
        ANAHEIM LADY DUCKS
        Some really impressive teams. Would have to say two top teams with some really high end talent out of Canada. Limoilou out of Quebec & POE in Western Canada. Some fantastic teams and high end girls who could compete with just about anyone. Watched both play each other in Stoney Creek and was easily the game of the tournament. Great to see the female teams and talent coming from so many places.

          If you would care to, would you be willing to give some quick observations on the committed recruits out of these programs that most of us do not get to see?
          At the outset, we could hang with the dude...

                  Quick recap of how these games went: Both the Chicago teams skated hard and teams had to settle it in a shootout where CYA ends up the victors. I've seen CYA play a few times this season and they beat a very good Mission team that beat #1 ranked Shattuck four consecutive games a month back. In the other semi-final game, NAHA jumped out to a 3-1 lead but were unable to hold on to it. BT scored the game winner with .4 seconds on the clock giving BT a hard fought 4-3 victory. The Championship game saw Belle Tire win 4-0 in a game where CYA had two long 5 on 3 power plays and were unable to convert. CYA also had several other power plays (5) where they never got a shot on net during a few of them. BT defense very strong throughout the whole tournament. This is the same group that won Nationals at 16U last year and moved up to 19U. They are back to back tourney champs at the JWHL Challenge Cup, but different age groups.

                    Does it really matter who wins these things as opposed to playing well against good competition and getting in the recruiting notebook of a number of schools?

                      It matters to the players or maybe you prefer they receive participation medals?

                        I prefer showcases. Play 4 or 5 games and go home. Save winning as the primary objective for the post season.

                          Agreed. Especially in the jwhl tournament, which was very long and the elite teams had to play 3 or 4 blowouts before getting to some decent competition.

                            Disagree. Players hate showcases. They prefer to be working towards a goal in each tournament. Showcases are a just a bunch of random scrimmages.

                                My daughter played in the JWHL and didn't mind the showcase weekends. It was just her regular season since the standings mattered and led to playoff seeding. It also helps when you get contacted from university coaches after a given weekend - you see the real value in having all the teams in one place!
