Montreal JazzFest 2008- Let the Predictions Begin



Nation,

The Bird will be at Jazzfest this weekend. Whoever is not at the tournament from the Ottawa program (PHX/FB) will be at a very crazy party. I can't say any more.

I was going to post the schedule days ago but it was flawed. It was then rectified almost imeediately (nice work TD) and we have the following schedule and the open teams are as follows:


Origin

Magma

Montreal,Qc

Mephisto

Montreal,Qc

Demon

Montreal,Qc

MIT Geck Mystique

Boston,MA

Biefs

Montreal,Qc

Run Silent Run Deep


Double

Burlington, VT

Ray Net

Trois-Rivières,Qc

Firebird

Ottawa, Ont.

Zebra Muscles

Rochester, NY

Participation Fish

New Jersey

Tabascomen

Montreal,Qc

Providence Packdogs

Rhode Island

Bear Proof

Shippensburg,PA

Opus

New Hampshire

Roy

Sudbury,Ont.

Glum

Ottawa, Ont.

Les Ringards Faméliques

Montreal,Qc

DQ & Friends

Rimouski,

The Swingers

Montreal, Qc

Hit or Miss

Hamilton, ON

Stimulus Package



We're playing Zebra Muscles, Tabascomen and Raynet on Saturday. I haven't seeing the new look Zebra Muscles yet (They lost a lot of their old guard and are headed in a youth movement) and these other two teams are Quebec squads I haven't seen at all.

Teams to watch include Mephisto and Providence Pack Dogs. Mephisto is a standard for solid and consistent results. The Packdogs lit up everyone they faced at Boston last week. Expect Run Silent Run Deep, Glum, MIT to make it to quarters. We'll be there too of course. :)

Women's division

Here are the teams
Here is the schedule

Here are my thoughts
  • Storm has to be the favorite
  • Who the hell is Fusion from Winnepeg? I smell a stacked team.
  • I think PPF who should be coming to my No Borders tourney.. is going to be in the semis
  • I think the MIT teams in both women's and men's got some sweet seeds. Hard to live up to such rankings
  • I think Scarlett is underseeded. They are very serious about this tourney

Fusion from Winnipeg is the newly formed Womens team, that will be attending CUC this year. From what i have heard they are only sending a very small number of players to this tourney (somewhere around 11?) some can't make the trip some are girls on Team Canada who are heading to Toronto for a training camp on monday. So it isn't the full Fusion squad at Jazzfest.
