It was a must win for the Warriors as they invaded the Leisureplex in Fort Erie. With both teams neck and neck in the standings Stoney Creek needed a win to stay above Fort Erie, and they did just that knocking off the Meteors 4-2. The game started off slow for Stoney Creek as Fort Erie score the first two goals of the game. Nik Passero gave the home team an early lead scoring just 3:30 into the

What a game! The Glanbrook Rangers traveled to Dundas to take on the Blues in the teams' third meeting of the season, in what has been dubbed the 'Battle of Hamilton,' and the teams put on a classic performance. In a goal heavy game Glanbrook came from behind to win the game 8-7. After a rather uneventful first period, in contrast to the rest of the game, the score sat tied at one goal a piece.

For these two teams the first half of the season couldn't be any different. One team is currently ranked second in the league while the other sits middle of the pack. The Glanbrook Rangers are on a roll, having knocked down nearly every team they've faced so far this season. In fact, the only team to give the Rangers trouble are the number one team in the league Grimsby, who are undefeated

It’s not something that has happened to the team much this season and is something to be savoured. The Stoney Creek Warriors are on a roll with wins having been victorious in the last two games. Thursday night the Warriors welcomed the Welland Canadians to Valley Park Arena looking to extend their winning ways to a bonified streak.

The Stoney Creek Warriors traveled south of the border but came home without a victory. The first half of the opening period was dominated by the Blades, throwing eight shots at the Warriors net before Stoney Creek registered their first shot on goal. It would prove to be all that would be needed as the first shot from the Warriors found the back of the net. Mike Casale scored on a power play,

The Warriors held the Canucks to just one goal as Stoney Creek defeated Niagara Falls 2-1 in a shoot out. There was a lot on the line Saturday night as the Warriors skated into Valley Park Arena. Stoney Creek looked to end a five game losing streak, three game losing streak at home and climb out of last place in the conference. After being blown out in their last two games the team was also

It's been a long time coming. The Hurricanes haven't been here since 1993 and haven't won it all since 1972. Last year Hamilton came within one game of making it here. 2011 will see the Hurricanes not only gaining a berth in the national championship game, but also hosting the final for the first time since 1981.

Spraypaint on the dedication plaque on the Ferguson Avenue Bridge Graffiti, or tagging as it is sometimes referred, has been around for a long time. The earliest forms of graffiti date back to 30,000 BC. Cave paintings and ceremonial drawings were scrawled and painted on cave walls. Modern graffiti usually comes in the form of spraypaint, markers and acid-etch used to damage glass. Some taggers
