Express Contingent On Fire at All-Star Weekend

The 2025 PNWJLL All-Star Game was held in Campbell River on Saturday June 7th at the Strathcona Gardens Arena and all 6 teams were represented on both sides.

On the white team from the Express were: #7 Ethan Widdifield, #8 Beckett Robinson, and #9 Jakob McDonald. On the black team were: #7 Tory Bains, #8 Travis Pelkey and #9 Jason Bobroske and our goaltender was Erick Howarth.

All of our players had a blast playing with and against others from the PNWJLL and represented the Express very well. First year Jakob McDonald has developed into a very good transitional player and had an assist on the day. Second year Beckett Robinson has transformed himself this season; scoring 2 goals and 1 assist in the game and fourth year Ethan Widdifield scored a goal and got himself two feeders as well in the match. Eric Howarth backstopped Team Black for one period stopping a whopping 23 shots. Travis Pelkey has gained a new found confidence playing transition and potted 2 goals and 1 assist in the match while Tory Bains netted 7 markers and two assists for the black team. Team White won the game 23 - 18. Tory Bains was selected the PNWJLL All-Star Game MVP and was also the winner of the fastest shot competition held before the game.

Congratulations to all of the Express and league players... you represented the Express and the PNWJLL very well.
