In case you have not been paying attention to the Twin Cities hockey scene over the last year or two, a summer hockey league called Da Beauty League will begin its second season of existence on Wednesday night. Da Beauty League is a 4x4 league that features Upper Midwest professional and amateur players taking part in a six team league to keep sharp in the offseason. Several well known NHL stars will play in the league this summer once again, as well as several college players from the Gophers among others.
The teams play two 30-minute halves, but otherwise use all the normal rules of hockey.
