Flash Back November 2008 – Murph Scores Against the Jr Sharks

Murph Rejoins the Polar Bears

After two years of being away and playing for the Jr. Panthers and Jr. Coyotes, Murph is excited to be back with his old Phoenix Polar Bear Teammates for the 2009-2010 season.

Last night, he completed tryouts for the Squirt A Polar Bear Team and got the call after school today from the Coach congratulating him for making the team.

Murph will be coached by Ed Kastelic (former Washington Capitals & Hartford Whalers Forward).

Murph is looking forward to the upcoming season and playing with his former teammates (and friends)!

“I am really looking forward to learning a lot from Coach Kastelic”

Off Season Training Starts Today!

Yesterday, I played my last hockey tournament as a Mite. We had two games, we won the first and lost the second to the Polar Bears. It was a good way to end the season, playing against my friends on the PB. We should have won that game … but, long shifts and tired legs … we lost by ONE!

Today officially started my off ice training, so I can be ready for the next season of Squirts. I am playing Flag Football and I know the Coach! We won both games and our team is looking great with only two practices under our belt.

I am looking forward to next weekend, my team is taking on my goalie’s flag football team!!  May the best hockey player WIN!!

Murph’s Last Mite Jr. Coyote Practice

It was a long ride home, I was so bummed.  I did not want to leave the ice tonight.  It was my last practice as a Jr. Coyote … Mite!  I love those guys!  Murph

Jeremy Roenick ~ Totally ROCKS!

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!!
