BCHL Alumni Game: More Than Just Nostalgia? Salmon Arm is set to host a BCHL alumni game featuring former Silverbacks against a squad of league all-stars and special guests. But beyond the familiar names and the thrill of seeing former favourites back on the ice, what does this game represent for the BCHL? Is it a legitimate celebration of the league's history and a bridge to its future, or simply a marketing gimmick? The rosters boast NHL veterans, Olympians, and even a country music star. Does this celebrity presence elevate the game, or overshadow the contributions of other, less famous alumni? Does the 3-on-3 format truly showcase the skills of these former players, or does it detract from the spirit of the game? What are your expectations for this alumni game? Will it inspire current BCHL players, or simply serve as a reminder of past glories? Share your thoughts and predictions.
