New Behind the Mask in Scottsdale

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!

Nothing beats scoring the first goal of the game for the Phoenix Polar Bears at Jobing.com Arena; except for hearing my name announced in the Phoenix Coyotes House! It was my first goal at Jobing.com and it was another highlight to my year!!

The Coyotes had just won their game the night before, their energy was still in the building! Our game against the IE Runners ended in a 5-5 tie.

A BIG thanks goes out to USA Hockey for giving us the opportunity to celebrate Hockey Across America! Thanks also to my teammate Jack for the perfect pass and to my Coach (Ed Kastelic), who loves the game of hockey and coaching it! Hockey Brings us together!

Clean Sweep in Arvada, CO!

Victory was SWEET!!This past weekend the Phoenix Polar Bear Squirt A team showed up BIG in Colorado for the MLK Tournament in Arvada, CO.  Despite all the obstacles we faced, we were undefeated in 5 all games!

I missed my scheduled flight home because we made it to the Championship Game!!  It was well worth it … the trophy was AWESOME and victory is sweet!

Thank you to the awesome lady at Southwest Airlines that got me on the next flight home to Phoenix,  just because I was wearing a hat with hockey sticks on it!  HOCKEY ROCKS!
