Another successful charity tournament for the Smilezone foundation! With your generous donations the event was able to raise over $145,000! Simply amazing. A big thank you to all who donated. Looking forward to next year's already. This is truly an amazing fantasy hockey community. The highlight for me this year was getting to lineup with Wojtek Wolski. Super nice guy and fun to talk too. Pretty good hockey player too.

Bumping as we are 10 days away! Any donation goes a long way in putting a smile on a kids face!

Hello fellow hockey fanatics! It's that time of year again, as we watch the NHL regular season come to an end and the playoffs on the horizon I am once again participating in the Smilezone's charity hockey tournament on April 29th. Unlike in years past this will be a one day tournament but the goal is still the same!! To put as many smiles on as many kids faces as possible. Those of you who know me from my long tenure in this great hockey community know how long I have been participating in this charity. Smilezone continues to transform children's wards in hospitals into welcoming, interactive spaces where the kids can feel more comfortable when having to spend time fighting or recovering from illness. Join me in supporting this great cause and I'll ensure I let Eric Lindros know to keep his head up this year! LOL https://smilezonefoundation.akaraisin.com/ui/HockeyHelpingKids/p/9ca56fa062e4402b8196d1cc5cdba8fb Please feel free to reach of via DM if you want anymore information! Thank you all, Ryan

I want to thank everyone who supported this great cause. It was a great event that raised $167,094.51 for Smilezone. I had a absolute blast and the team I played for raised $22,323.75 (3rd highest team total)!! Got to play against one of my idols growing up in Eric Lindros. Also got a couple shifts with former Rangers Adam Graves and Stephane Matteau. Can't wait until next year!

Charity tournament starts Saturday! My team is rocking the donations, currently at just over $12,000 raised for this great cause. Keep those donations coming! You guys are awesome and are putting many many smiles on sick kids faces.

This community is amazing! Just over 24 hours since I posted and I'm already over half way to my goal of $500 with $332.50 donated so far, with $200+ from the Capwise community. Thank you to those who have donated! 👏 👏 Plenty of time left to fly past my goal. Help me make that happen. Cheers 🍻

Hello Capwise Community!! I hope each one of you is doing fantastic!, whether we have interacted before or not. It has been a few years since last being in a Capwise league yet I still find myself checking in on a monthly to weekly basis depending on the time of year. I loved my time running multiple teams but life got in the way and I had to step away. I hope to return to the fantasy aspect at some point again but am posting for a different reason this time around. As some of you may recall I play in a 24 hour charity hockey tournament for a foundation called Smilezone. You can click the link here Home - Smilezone Foundation to see all they do. One of their main objectivities is to put smiles on those kids who are sick in the hospital. The transform those boring hallways and rooms in hospitals into amazing spaces of learning and healing. The tournament has been on hold for the last two years like most of our lives due to Covid but is making an exciting comeback this year! Like many other foundations, the last two years have made fundraising difficult and Smilezone is looking to make this the most successful tournament to date. So any donation, regardless of the amount, will go a long way in putting smiles on thousands of children's faces I leave my personal page link below incase any in the community would like to help me smash my fundraising goal of $500. Cheers and may the Puck Gods give you that one PP point you need to win https://smilezonefoundation.akaraisin.com/ui/24hourhockey/p/02123895474545a2b290d721e158c6d7#.YljekS4SFdg.link

I miss fantasy hockey. I could commit to a one year test pool.

I play fantasy hockey, baseball and football. Won about $500 in baseball this year, finishing second in the regular season for $200 and then winning the league for another $400, minus the $100 buy in.

Hotmail sucks lol

Good afternoon Capwi$e! As I am about to embark on this 24 hockey journey I wanted to first thank you all for your support and donations. There is no better feeling then helping out some kids who have not been given the same advantages as I have growing up. All of your donations are sincerely appreciated and I look forward to continued participation in this event for many years to come. Nothing better then being able to play hockey to raise money for these kids. The group here at Capwi$e never ceases to amaze me with your generosity. You guys are awesome!! Thanks and cheers, Ryan Howard (D5 Ducks)

Capwise Nation!! Less then a week to get those donations in. This playoff hockey is getting me pumped up for 24 hours of hockey. Looking forward to doing my part to help put some smiles on a few kids faces.

Couldn't have said it any better myself James.

Good afternoon Capwise community! Only two weeks to go before I take on this 24 hour tournament and we are getting closer and closer to our fundraising goal of $150,000!! We currently are sitting at $94,622.50. Help us hit our goal and put a smile on thousands of children's faces. Any amount big or small is helpful. Also, another big thanks to those who have already donated!! You guys rock. Many thanks, Ryan Howard (District 5 Ducks)

We are less then a month away from the charity tournament!! Still plenty of time to get those donations in. It is because of people like those in the Capwise community that makes this tournament so successful. There is no better feeling then seeing a smile on a kids face who has been dealt a shitty hand in life. Many thanks in advance.
