The tournament has become a favourite event pitting the competitive hockey prowess of Edmonton vs Calgary and the camaraderie of friends, families and colleagues gathering for some good fun. Team names like Fighting Yids, Chai Shticks, Charlestown Ribacks and Tu Bi’ Shvat Tigers show that in addition to great hockey, there is good humour.
