I was just curious. Is Laurie Kingsbury a sister or relative of Gina Kingsbury, who starred at SLU and has won two gold medals with Team Canada?

Not that I'm aware off. Gina is from Northern Quebec (born in Sask). Laurie is from Valleyfield which is just west of Montreal and has been playing in the Montreal area for quite a few years.

I also saw two more girls in the rink Saturday (if they are who I think they are, they are good ones) and another one today. I saw the name on the jacket but I don't know what happened so I wouldn't post anything.

"I am not responsible for the spelling errors and accuracy of this ad". Paid for by the committee to legalize zamboni driving on the interstate.
 
Re: D1 Commitments 2011-2012

The 2 other girls that were at the game were Bailey Bram's sister Shelby and Kristine Grenier. Shelby Bram told me they are both coming here next season.

Well, that's who I saw as well but I didn't know the status of them. I will take your word.

There was still another player in today, I saw the name on her team coat and see that she is the leading scorer on her team but I have no idea what her status is either. I will say she traveled a long way to get here.

Paige Turner.......G........U19AAA MN Thoroughbreds - JWHL.......Duluth MN

One has to wonder if Coach Miller suggested/ordered that she play U19 with the T'Breds instead of finishing her career with the Duluth Stars. Otherwise it seems like an odd move, considering it's a 3-hour drive to Highland Arena. I don't know the situation with the Stars however.

OR, maybe she saw an opportunity with the already proven Thoroughbred program, as a chance to continue her development as she prepares to enter a strong D1 conference.
 
Re: D1 Commitments 2011-2012

So what I understand is Thoroughbreds who have a very good team this year led by Stephanie Anderson (U18 and committed to MN) needed a top goalie and that Turner was highly regarded. The JWHL will be a great place for her to take her game to the next level and prepare for D1 level of play in her home town. Here is current roster
