Colorado Hockey was Physical!

What a great tournament in Arvada!  The teams we played were physical and the refs rarely stopped the play for penalties.  Although our record was 0-2-2, Coach Goldberg said “we came home a better hockey team.”

Playing pond hockey with my team and Coach Nietz & Goldberg was the highlight for me!

Counting Down to Arvada!

I can’t wait for Thursday!  Looking forward to seeing Colorado again, the Arvada MLK Squirt tourney is one of the best tournaments that I have traveled to!  We are Polar Bear strong!!

Coyotes Cup Goal & Celebration

Things didn’t turn out too well this year at the Coyotes Cup, but the Squirt A Phoenix Polar Bears played hard.  We were in every game! We finished up with 2 ties/2 losses.

The next two weeks will be spent getting ready for the MLK Tournament in Arvada Colorado.

Here is a clip of  my teammate Zack putting a nice pass on my stick, but I couldn’t connect on it.  Then Hunter makes a great play & pass to set me up for a goal.  Finally, got to use my NHL 11 goal celebration too!  Sweet!!

I love the Holidays …

because that means a HOCKEY tourney!  If you get a chance to come and watch the Phoenix Polar Bears Squirt A team will be playing in the Coyotes Cup at the Alltel Ice Den in Scottsdale.  First game is Monday morning at 8:30 am.  Full schedule HERE!  I added a Championship WIN to my Christmas list!

Merry Christmas and Happy Hockey Holidays!

Merry Christmas 2010

NHL Alumni Game

OK, so this was a really BIG moment for me!  I just finished receiving my Give Back Award from Kristy, Stacy & Gina and they told me that I could drop the puck during the NHL Alumni vs Coaches game and sit on the bench with the NHL players.

NHL Alumni face off vs AZ Hockey Clubs Coaches

Getting to see Coach Chaffee, Coach Whyte & Coach Kastelic in action was really cool.  The NHL Alumni players still have a lot of game left in them and they were so awesome to hang out with.  Tyson Nash is a great skater!

It is a night I will never forget!

Chance Berman’s NHL Alumni Game Goal Celebration

The NHL Alumni Game vs the Arizona Hockey Clubs Coaches was great fun!  Chance scored the first goal of the game and the Alumni had some FUN!  It was great seeing our hockey coaches playing against former NHL players such as Tyson Nash, Steve Bozek, Ed Kastelic, Sean Whyte, Dave Ellett, Cale Hulse, Craig Conroy and goalie Sean Gauthier.
