The Coyotes are Back on the ICE!

October 12, 2009 By murphhockey 1 Comment

It was friends, food, fun and HOCKEY Saturday night at Jobing.com Arena. Before the game, my family attended a Coyotes tailgating party. I played a little hockey with some Coyotes fans, everyone was so pumped up for the doors to open and get inside. I got to meet Doug Moss, he was so excited about Opening Night.

I won a signed Shane Doan hockey puck (on his 33rd birthday), from HockeyBuzz for the sign I made … AWESOME! It was really cool seeing everyone wearing WHITE. Yandle I saw so many Roenick #97 Coyotes Jerseys.

I finally saw a NHL player with an Easton S19 Hockey Stick up close, when Yandle went to the penalty box. Wow, I want one!

I really wanted a Coyotes Win, but loosing the game did not take away from all the excitement I felt about the COYOTES being back on the ice in Glendale, AZ and going to my first WhiteOut Hockey game.

My Coach said it best after we lost a game like that “an eye opener … moving forward.”

Behind the Mask in Chandler, AZ

The word is Josh is back at Behind the Mask! That is great news!! Although; Steven and Jordan helped size me for new roller blades and a Warrior Hockey Stick yesterday. Behind the Mask is the place to go, for all your hockey & roller hockey stuff!! These guys take the time to make sure you get what you need and that you are sized perfectly. They have an awesome selection of sticks and I found the one I wanted to take to Canada!!

I’m leaving for Calgary, Canada on June 20th to participate in the Stampede Challenge AAA Hockey Tournament!

I got a chance to use my blades this morning and they are awesome. The stick is sweet! I got so many great birthday presents!

Murph gets one in the first period

This trip to the snow is paying off, 2-1 in the first period, Flagstaff is up. Things changed quickly, tough loss 5-2, not one of our better games. Here are some clips of the game. Lots of missed opportunities. We will do better tomorrow.

Coyote Cup Tournament

December 20, 2008 By murphhockey Leave a Comment

We had an awesome practice today! We are preparing for our Coyote Cup Tournament, a few days after Christmas. I am now on the RED line, I am excited about that! Red is the color of energy, the element of fire … I was feeling it yesterday at practice, back on a line with Bunting.
