Hey there, time traveller!

Defenceman Mike Ladyman’s overtime snipe lifted Team White to a 4-3 win over Team Black in the Showcase Game before a crowd of 621 spectators at the Rink Training Centre to conclude the first week of training camp for the Winnipeg Ice.
The Ice, which is debuting in Winnipeg after relocating from Cranbrook, B.C., in the off-season, will open its pre-season in Brandon Friday night against the Wheat Kings.
The teams will square off again on Saturday at Stride Place in Portage la Prairie.
Winnipeg has 34 players remaining on its roster, including four goalies, 10 defencemen and 20 forwards for its slate of four exhibition games, which will conclude with two tilts in Saskatoon Sept. 13 and 14 against the Blades.
Michael Milne, German import draft pick Nino Kinder and Ethan Sundar also scored goals for Team White. Milne, Ladyman and Carson Lambos chipped in with assists.
Team Black forward Austin Schellenberg scored forced OT late in regulation, while Owen Pederson and No. 1 overall bantam draft pick Matt Savoie added singles.
Karter Prosofsky and Schellenberg added assists for Team Black. Both teams had 30 shots on net.
A number of veteran players did not dress for the game, including forwards Brad Ginnell, Isaac Johnson, Connor McClennon and Davis Murray and defencemen Reece Harsch and Chad Hartje.
No. 2 overall pick Conor Geekie suffered a bruised collarbone during a Saturday workout and did not suit up Sunday while Czech newcomer Michal Teply, another forward, also did not play.
Elsewhere, veteran goaltender Jesse Makaj (undisclosed illness) and centre Peyton Krebs (Achilles tendon) did not take part in any on-ice workouts. Krebs, a first-round draft pick of the Vegas Golden Knights, will return to the NHL team Monday to continue his injury rehabilitation.
The Ice will open its regular season on the road Sept. 20 in Brandon before opening its home schedule against the Wheat Kings on Sept. 21 at the University of Manitoba’s Wayne Fleming Arena.
