2005 Champs: the Boston Bruins alumni
The ninth annual Esso 3 on 3 Pond Hockey Tournament was held on January 22, 2005 at the Stampede Corral. This is an annual fundraiser for Calgary's minor hockey where NHL alumni form teams and compete in a fast paced 3 on 3 tournament. It also kicks off minor hockey week. It was originally started by Calgary Flames alumni Colin Patterson and Perry Berezan in 1997. The players are also available during autograph sessions.
