Some of these comments are asinine. The fact that Lacombe has to raise money to go to a Canadian Nationsl championship is embarrassing.
Hockey Canada should be ashamed. All participants should have airfare, lodging and expenses paid for. Sure the teams would be required to pony up some cash, as yes as someone mentioned it is a business. But come on there is absolutely nothing wrong with a "Go fund me" account if Hockey Canada is not paying their way. How much money do you think they make operating a Senior AAA team?
To top it off, the Allan Cup is the only major championship that Hockey Canada has not tried to find a major sponsor for to help support these teams.

This is completely ridiculous! Run a team and manage your funds accordingly, and to say that other Sr teams will follow is just as ridiculous! These teams have to be managed like a business over spend suffer the consequences if the Generals are all so guaranteed to go every year they should know the cost and plan accordingly. They have changed their goal now 3 times. Why not try and do something in the community with some kids like a hockey school there is a lot of opportunity to make money just get off your ass and do it. I think this is a black eye for Sr AAA hockey and there is know way possible to justify it. Yikes...this post has reached an all new shit sangwich level that i didn't think was possible. Taking a jab at the Generals is hogwash. People who don't know what they are talking about and make comments based on mindless assumptions...that would be you Flat Lander.
