'06 Machine Orange capture the Title and the Jersey
The '06 Machine won the NAHC last year with a narrow win over the Chicago H2 Selects, this year they won it again, this time versus intrastate rival the MN Blades. The Orange are now a two time winner of the coveted NAHC Champions jersey. Will next year be the three-peat?
The 2004 Blades had a great weekend taking second to the Vancouver H2 Canucks Sunday in the Finals. The Blades went 3-0-1 in Pool Play and beat the Montreal Vikings Sunday morning to gain the final.
No other Minnesota teams saw the light of the final four besides the three teams mentioned. That is a lot of cars crossing the border without much hardware of fabric this year.
Congrats to all of the Super Elite Winners:
2001 - Vancouver Selects
2002 - Foothills Elite
2003 - South Sask Selects
2004 - Vancouver H2 Selects
2005 - BC Jr. Brick
