Not many hockey teams with cheerleaders anymore. Oilers haven’t had any in years. Do they have cheerleaders for the junior squads? Legitimately curious, I don’t know one way or another

I specifically posted the response in relation to Junior hockey. In a Junior hockey thread. Again the point you missed by miles is this sexualization doesn't have to be in Junior hockey in a youth tournament.
Somehow you equate it to the world of pro sports, and ironically where cheerleaders are being cancelled. Kind of supporting the point of questioning why is this drag race stuff going on in a Junior Tournament

I don’t care for either Cheerleader or drag queens. NHL games are circus
nowadays. How many hockey players fantasize about drag queens? None. This marketing doesn’t belong in hockey, or any sporting event. It belongs where drag queens hang out? Wherever that is located.I watched first period. Then shut it off. Then it was 2-0. These boys lack discipline. It’s short tournament. The referees are always questionable at these tourneys. Oil kings had lead first game, blew it. Second game won in OT. Third game start at Defecit of two goals after penalty. Need discipline too not slash, interference, etc. stupid little mistakes. I believed they were best team at this tournament. However offset by playing short handed. Never able to establish control for length of time in opponents end.

I should become a professional prognosticator with these skills.

I guess we're all supposed to guess what you're point is, and if we don't guess right it's fair game to berate us for that.
The point of changing cheerleaders to burlesque was what exactly? Never seen burlesque at a hockey game.

The point is a week old. The post was made in context of others asking why there were drag queen races and drag events and drag programming in broadcast during the memorial cup, a tournament for youth, and watched by youth.I guess we're all supposed to guess what you're point is, and if we don't guess right it's fair game to berate us for that.

I guess I could make my post clearer but its difficult to do that within the constraints of a moderated board. other people understood my comment, that I was equating drag competitions to burlesque to underline the inappropriateness of it.
Not meaning to berate. But its hard to clarify certain comments here or in social media.

I totally understand why you need to have a host team, and I'm sure the players and their fans don't care, but for me winning the MC while not having been thru the four round grind like the other three teams endured takes some lustre off of the win for SJ.

Not disagreeing, but it can definitely work the other way, with having weeks upon weeks of rust to work off. Like starting off a brand new season, without the training camps and exhibition matches.

Great year for Dub prospects in a what's supposed to be a deep, strong 2023 draft year: Top 10 WHL players to watch for 2023 NHL Draft - Sportsnet.ca
Shout out to my hometown Saskatoon that's had strong representation with last year's Kevin Korchinski taken at #7, Finnadian Brad Lambert at #30, 2023 prospect Brayden Yager a lottery level preliminary projection, Riley Heidt.

Top 5 are centres, and top 7 are either centres of defensemen. Nice, but no EOKs.
I've 2 Loge tickets (best seats in the house) for the EOK game tonight vs Regina & Connor Bedard for anyone who wants them (they are free)- let me know by PM and include your email address so I can etransfer them to you.
