Dear Goldwater Institute Staff:

Phoenix Coyotes Game

Last night was the best night of my life! Why you ask? Because, I attended another Phoenix Coyotes game. I love hockey, hockey is my passion, heck, hockey is my life. I cannot imagine my life without MY local hockey team. The Phoenix Coyotes sponsored my career 7 years ago in Kids First Hockey, they provided me with full gear, so that I along with hundreds of other kids could try the sport. I was hooked because of the Phoenix Coyotes generosity. The Phoenix Coyotes are extremely generous, and are always giving back to the community that supports them!

I’m only 10 and I know if I beg my parents enough, I can usually get them to buy me that new hockey stick I want so badly. SO … I am begging you here; because I want he Phoenix Coyotes to say in Arizona, way more than any new, awesome hockey stick. 

The Boys with Derek Morris

PLEASE find a way … any way to allow the sale of the Phoenix Coyotes to go through! The Phoenix Coyotes are part of our hockey family, part of our community and we should reachout and help them. PLEASE, please, Please!

Please, don’t let this season be the last time I have the “best night of my life” … please find a way to HELP the Phoenix Coyotes stay in Glendale! Please:) with a smiley face attached!

Sincerely, Patrick W. Murphy (Murph #27)

Squirt A Polar Bears Scrimmage

March 2, 2011 By Leave a Comment

In preparing for next years Pee Wee season, the Polar Bears Pee Wee B Coach agreed to let us scrimmage his team. We are small but still battled, the chance to play up was great. We still have some things to work on, but it looks like the Squirt A Coaches have done a great job in preparing us for next year.

I personally look forward to being tall enough to climb over the boards like the Pee Wee players do to get on the bench!!

Villanova Ice Cats Hockey Game Highlights

February 26, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Earlier this month when the Villanova Ice Hockey Team played the ASU Sun Devils, they gave me a jersey and let me help out.  I put the sticks on the bench, helped fill their water bottles and cheered them on during the game.   The Ice Cats have some really awesome hockey players.  I was born in PA right near Villanova University.  My Grandpere played football and graduated from that college, so I grew up singing “V” for Villanova!

The score didn’t end very well for the Villanova Ice Cats, but I was thankful for the opportunity to meet them!

Colorado Hockey was Physical!

January 20, 2011 By Leave a Comment

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!
