Only news so far is that Brandon gets to host the 2010 Memorial Cup.
That might be all we get for now. |

Sale Approved per Andy
Quote: | I have it upon good authority that the sale of the Portland Winter Hawks has been approved by an unanimous vote of the Western Hockey League Board of Governors.
I don’t have anything else to report at this time, but I will see what I can dig up for the pre-game show.
I was hoping that the Brandon station would carry the entire press conference, but no such luck.

Quote: | Calgary, AB -- The Western Hockey League Board of Governors today have approved the transfer of the Portland Winter Hawks ownership to Mr. Bill Gallacher of Avenir Capital Corporation. Based in Calgary, Mr. Gallacher is not scheduled to take over control of the Portland WHL franchise until the closing of the sale is concluded later this month. The approval to transfer the franchise to Mr. Gallacher included a condition that the Winter Hawks franchise remains in Portland. The Portland Winter Hawks franchise has operated in Portland since the 1976-77 season. |
