Youth Hockey Player Blogs About his Passion - Ice Hockey
Waited in line at Game Stop, with some awesome hockey people! Played a little Winter Classic game while waiting and at midnight, they handed me the game!
First NHL12 game, I played as Roenick and scored a couple hattricks. Had a TON of penalties!! Final score 8-6 with Roenick scoring most of those GOALS!!
Graphics are amazing! The hitting is so much better! EA Sports … it’s in the game!!!
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. 
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.”
I will never forget coming home from school today and logging 
onto RoenickLife.com and watching Jeremy Roenick speak about his retirement from the NHL after 20 seasons. He said it’s not a sad day … but to me it is. I will not get to watch him play this season. I can’t imagine that, I have watched him play since I was three.
I thank JR for being a friend and an awesome role model. I will continue to wear his number and dream big. I want to be like Jeremy Roenick when I grow up!
Good luck in the future!
I still can’t believe I was in San Jose last week. It was raining all day, and my mom and I got soaked!! It’s so funny because my mom almost rented a convertible! We went to a very cool restaurant Aldo’s, that is where the Sharks go all the time for lunch. Our waiter was Frenchy … although he was very Italian! The food was so good!! I kept thinking that “I can’t believe I am eating lunch, in front of Jeremy Roenick,” but I kept eating and even had an awesome piece of chocolate cake!! Jeremy had his usual, he ate the biggest bowl of pasta I have ever seen and had some chicken with it.
Jeremy gave me a shout out on his website! He is totally the coolest, I picked a great hockey HERO! Lunch was so over the top and I still can’t believe it happened. It was the best surprise my parents gave me yet! They ROCK too!!
JR took me and my Mom into the Sharks Locker Room this afternoon. I met just about all the NHL Sharks. Patrick Marleau gave me his stick and JR gave me his gloves and one of his sticks and they both signed them! This is Awesome! I even spent some time with Claude Lemieux, Joe Thorton, Jonathan Cheechoo, Rob Blake and Brian Boucher. This is Awesome! My Mom video taped me meeting everyone, I will post the videos when I get home.
Here is a picture my Mom took of me with her phone with JR’s Gloves. Hockey Rocks!”
Now it’s off to lunch!
