  1. 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.

  2. 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

    Please feel free to reach of via DM if you want anymore information!

     

    Thank you all,

  3. 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!

  4. 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 :)

  5. 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)

  6. 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)

  7. Good afternoon Capwise,

    It is with great enthusiasm that I make this post. It is once again the time of year to begin my push to my fundraising goal for this great cause. As most of you know I have been participating in this event since its inception and it continues to grow larger and help many more kids. It's because of people like those in the Capwise community that these kids are able to enjoy their lives given their shitty circumstances. Your support goes a long way in making these kids day better. Let's continue to make them SMILE :)

    The link below should take you directly to my fundraising page, but if not just search for Ryan Howard from the Bachly Bruins.
