It was good to spend a couple of days working with Holly at Kids First Hockey at the Gilbert Polar Ice. Hockey First is run by the Phoenix Coyotes to introduce new players to the best game in the world, HOCKEY!

Gifts for Operation Christmas Child
I look at all that I have and I know how lucky I am!
My 5th grade teacher told my class about Operation Christmas Child. I grabbed my wallet and went shopping for books, puzzles, pencils, candy, cars and a stuffed animal, perfect for some little boys that I wish were my brothers!
It feels good to give some fun to those less fortunate than me. Join me in spreading Christmas cheer this holiday season. Hockey Players be thankful for all that you have!
Weekend of Walking for Good Causes
November 10, 2010 By Leave a Comment
This past Saturday, I participated in the Making Strides Breast Cancer 5K Walk in Tempe, AZ. I designed a pink tie-died t-shirt to wear to the event. It will be my 5th year walking for the cause. I had a cousin 
diagnosed this year with Breast Cancer, so walking it this time meant a lot to me.
Then on Sunday, my Phoenix Polar Bears team wore green bandanas and walked a 5K at the Phoenix Zoo, to support the Lymphoma Foundation. One of our teammates grandmother died of this disease. Our team raised $340 to support this important cause.
Together, we can make a difference!
EA Sports NHL11 Rocks!
September 10, 2010 By Leave a Comment
For those of you who are living under a rock, NHL11 was released last Tuesday. Its Killer! The game is so much better then NHL10. The face offs are pretty cool and you can even break your stick. It has new quick dekes, hip checks and when the home team scores, the scoring player gets a spot light. There is a lot more but you need to see it for yourself. My gamertag is murphhockey.
LOL My Dad can’t figure out how to win a face off yet.
The only thing that isn’t cool is that if you have more then one Live account on your Xbox, EA Sports wants $9.99 for you to play online for each additional account. So my account was free but my Dad had to pay 10 bucks.
It looks like NHL11 will be the only hockey game in town for Xbox and PS3. 2K11 is only for the Wii this year. No big loss!
If your going to buy NHL11, I would appreciate if you pick it up at my store. I have both versions there. Here is the direct Link: NHL11

New Behind the Mask in Scottsdale
August 14, 2010 By Leave a Comment
I get most of my gear from BTM in Chandler & Gilbert, but today I went to Scottsdale for the opening of the Super Store on Shea Blvd. It is really BIG and the guys at the store were great!
This store has an awesome selection of pads, sticks, skates and Goalie gear. Ryan helped me put on some new Warrior Swagger pads, and he also sized my new stick for me.
The Goalie pads are on my Xmas list!, along with some lessons!
