Southeast Blades

The Southeast Blades were a Canadian Junior "A" ice hockey team from Sagkeeng, Manitoba. They were members of the Manitoba Junior Hockey League (MJHL), a part of the Canadian Junior Hockey League (CJHL) and Hockey Canada.
The franchise was owned by the Southeast Tribal Council, a corporation of the 9 First Nation bands of the Southeast Region of Manitoba.
Started playing as an expansion team in the 1988-89 season, and were called the Southeast Thunderbirds. They played out of the Notre Dame Arena in Winnipeg. The name was kept for three seasons before changing to the Southeast T-Birds for a season, then becoming the Blades for the 1992-93 season.
The Blades were granted a one year leave of absence for the 1996-97 season. The team returned, moving to the Sagkeeng Multiplex.
During the summer of 2007, the Blades were sold, relocating to Beausejour, and renamed the Beausejour Blades.
