Whether you’ve stepped on the ice yourself, laced up your offspring’s skates at some ridiculous hour, cheered on a kid in your life, or even just bought the chocolate almonds and raffle tickets, minor hockey is an integral part of Thunder Bay’s culture. In this issue of The Walleye, we celebrate the best parts of minor hockey: the kids who learn skills and sportsmanship, the adults who share their love of the game, and the staff and volunteers— especially the unsung heroes behind the scenes—who make the whole thing work. Go team!

For our February issue, we’re all about hometown hockey, and showcasing minor hockey’s role in Thunder Bay. As part of our cover story, Matt Prokopchuk talks to hockey officials about their love for the game, Kelsey Raynard writes about the legacy of women’s competitive hockey with the Thunder Bay Queens, Bonnie Schiedel presents minor hockey by the numbers, Diane Imrie looks back at the history of the city’s league systems, and we play some boot hockey for a great cause at Wolfy's Pond Cup.
