When this group of young hockey players joined together from communities all across northwestern Ontario, they developed into a team that would bring great pride to the region. Carrying on a tradition of excellence they finished atop the USHL league standings with a 36-11-1 record, claiming the Anderson Cup for the 4th time in five years.

Making their way along the trail to the Canadian Junior A finals, they played host to the Central Canada playdowns. Finishing second in round-robin action, their 5-2 semi-final defeat of the Joliette Nationals and 5-1 victory in the finals against the Kanata Valley Lasers delighted their over 3500 hometown fans, and earned them a trip to the national finals.

Making their way to Winnipeg for the five team Centennial Cup tournament, their 2-2 record in round robin action and 8-1 semi-final defeat of the Halifax Mooseheads, earned them the chance to challenge for the national crown. Facing off against the Winkler Flyers, a record setting, hard-hitting team, they retained the lead, and their composure, throughout the entire game, claiming the national title in a decisive 10-1 victory.
