Rockets GM wins award

Another big win for the President, G-M and owner of the Kelowna Rockets.
Bruce Hamilton will be honoured with the 2010 Business Leader of the Year Award at next month's Kelowna Chamber of Commerce Business Excellence Award dinner.
Hamilton brought the WHL franchise to Kelowna from Washington State 15 years ago.
The Rockets have been one of the CHL’s most successful teams over the last decade. They've made 4 appearances at the Memorial Cup in the last 7 years.

The Rockets won the Memorial Cup in 2004.

Awesome. He deserves it. He has helped produce a great franchise. Not only has he created a team that made it to the memorial cup 4 times in 7 years, he has also helped players improve their skills(with the right coaching staff). I remember CBC talking about all the great defense-man that have come from Kelowna. Kelowna rockets really are a great franchise. I am glad to be a fan.
