LAS VEGAS LEAVES ITS MARK ON THE SWEDES!

Winning the Las Vegas Invitational Bandy Tournament was such a great moment for several players on the Swedish West Coast Warriors bandy team. They had a tattoo of the Vegas tournament logo inked on their body. It was suggested this become a tradition for the winning team. We shall see….but love the passion guys!

CENTRE ICE HOCKEY BC WINS BATTLE OF VEGAS BANDY TEAMS

After a wild Round Robin playing more experienced teams, the two brand new Las Vegas bandy clubs looked forward to more evenly matched competition in the 5th Place match last Saturday. The Bandy Club Las Vegas (BCLV) had won their Round Robin match and were favored over the Centre Ice Hockey club. The teams ended up in a draw 7-7 after ordinary time. Then it went into a penalty shoot out (half ice breakaway) to determine the winner. One after another shot was stifled by the goalkeepers. Finally, in the 10th shoot out attempt, Centre Ice scored to get the victory!
Of note: the Centre Ice team had a player that played in the NHL in their lineup: Brian Salcido. Brian had a long pro career in Europe with a brief stop with the Anaheim Ducks in 2009. He currently works for the Las Vegas Golden Knights as Director of Coaching Instructor Programing and was awarded a Stanley Cup ring in 2023! Congrats Brian and the Centre Ice bandy team as well as the Bandy Club Las Vegas (BCLV) for your success in the tourney.
