Working out with Phoenix Coyotes Mike Bahn

In February, I attend a Phoenix Coyotes Hockey Development Clinic at Jobing.com Arena. We took a tour of the CoyotesMurph working out with the Phoenix Coyotes TrainerAdd New locker room and their incredible fitness facility.

The Coyotes locker room is so awesome.  Across the hall;  I saw where they get their skates sharpened, and Doan’s jerseys were hanging in a dry cleaning bag.  The players sticks are lined up on a long wall and Upshall’s stick had a smiley face on it.Upshall's Hockey Stick :)

The Phoenix Coyotes Strength & Conditioning Coordinator Mike Bahn showed us some of the exercises he does with the Coyotes players.  It was pretty cool that I got to be his partner.  He gave us a good workout before going to the locker room to dress for the ice.

Included in the clinic was tickets to the Coyotes game the next night.  This is a great hockey clinic.

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

Coyotes Season Almost Here …

This video was the last game of the Coyotes 2008-09 season.  I never miss the last home game, it has to hold me over until the next season begins!  The Coyotes won this one in a shoot out against the Ducks. 

Tiki (Viktor Tikhonov) took the shot, tripped and was celebrating while down. His goal WON the game for the Coyotes, he was amazing. It was such a great Game.

Can’t wait for this season to start.
