Hi Tom
I am in Stockholm with my NAA u 21 women's team . Very pleasant experience . Women's hockey is MUCH better than I thought . Love the spirit and compete . The Finnish team has 3 national players . Swedish team is talented as well .
Good luck this year . Will try to get to your game up here vs Thunder ( new coach this year !)

Smac, sounds like fun. I took the Mount Royal Womens Team there 6 years ago and played the top teams in Finland and a select team in Stockholm. The level of hockey there is very good. We went at Christmas time but you are getting the warm weather. I had it arranged to take my WWHL team to Stockholm and train with one of the clubs there but my players couldn't get the time off or wanted to go to beaches on their vacation; so it never happened.

A little advise. If you play in rinks with only one gate in the players box have all five go out the same door. There was one rink like that in Finland.
