Dear Friends & Family:
 
May 13th, 2008, marked a great day for T.J. Oshie, the Oshie Family, Seattle Junior Hockey Association, Warroad HS Warriors Hockey and the University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux.
 
T.J. signed his first professional contract with the St. Louis Blues organization.  T.J., along with his agent Matt Oates and Blues President John Davidson, were part of the signing group assembled at the ScottTrade Center in St. Louis, MI.
 
A very special thanks goes out to Tina Oshie, Taylor Oshie and Tawni Oshie for all the years of running to the arena's throughout North America.  The support and time you've given to T.J. as a mother, brother and sister is unparalleled.  Hockey seems to bring our family closer together even when the 1,800 miles separates us.  And to Aleah Oshie-Hangsleben, for always supporting her big brother at the Ralph Engelstad Arena.
 
Also, to the entire Oshie Family from Everett, WA; Stanwood, WA; Warroad, MN; Bemidji, MN, Minneapolis, MN, and abroad, thank you for your support over the years.
