Two loves in my life: Fighting Sioux Hockey and Metal.
I'm a '95 graduate of Colorado College. I bleed green and black so my 2nd favorite team after the Sioux is Colorado College.
I also play guitar. I love anything loud with lot's of distortion-Pantera, George Lynch, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Metallica, Megadeth, Disturbed, etc. As my username indicates, I'm a huge fan of the Boston-area band Godsmack. Devil Horns to the Sky!
Anyone notice how much the linesmen communicate right before dropping the puck? They’d count down, 3, 2, 1, ready and then drop it. Interesting, don’t think I’ve picked up on something like that here in the States.
In reading Schlossman’s piece about Zellers and his inclusion on the roster, if you didn’t know any better you’d walk away thinking Motzko wanted him on the team all along based on his quotes. Were those just face saving comments or did he really not want him on the team? Clearly, it was the absolute right call by Vanbiesbrouck to make that executive decision to include him on the roster.
To me, it would be awfully frustrating being a Mavericks fan right now. Eight seasons and only two tournament appearances and I don’t believe they’ve advanced to St. Paul in the years they’ve had home ice. They seem to get decent talent each year but don’t live up to expectations (sounds like us the previous few years).
I hope the team has long since flushed the sweep they incurred two seasons ago at Robson. Fortunately, most of the current players weren’t there for that. But I remember it.
Some encouraging news for CC, Drew Montgomery is dressed tonight for the first time since leaving the Friday game early against Providence. He took a cheap shot to the head by a Friars player.
What was last night’s excuse? Lol
Full disclosure: CC isn’t exactly crushing it in the win column so I suppose there’s an element of that right now in terms of compelling drama for a RedHawks fan to go.
God, that was so classic! I still remember the Gwoz standing on the dasher, screaming at the refs for missing that epic cup shot at the face off dot right in front of the DU bench. That’s what I call a little street justice.
