The Coyotes are Back on the ICE!

IMG_5305It 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.  YandleI 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.”

I Just Got My Tickets for Opening Night!

I am looking forward to opening night.  If you still need tickets, here is a great deal from the Phoenix Coyotes!

The offer is only good through Thursday at 9am!Opening-email-PAW

We WON!!! The Labor Day Tournament

This long hockey weekend was AWESOME!!  The Phoenix Polar Bears  did a great job bringing home the banner in the Labor Day Tournament!IMG_0162

We were in second place going into the playoffs.  It was pretty cool that we played against my old teammates from the Jr. Coyotes.  I had the first goal of the game; it was a rebound goal, off of a nice shot from my teammate Mark.

I’m not sure I agree with the tripping penalty I got in that game!  Sorry Robby!!

That win gave us a spot in the Championship game on Monday vs the Jr. Coyotes 99 team.  We were down 2-0, and came back to win the game 4-2!

It was an incredible victory.  I could hear the Polar Bear fans counting down the clock and we cleared the bench and headed for our goalie!  SWEET!  We got trophies and skated around the rink with the banner.  What a great way to start the season!!
