Phoenix Polar Bears Come up Short
I had a full weekend of hockey. I played in four games in two days for the Polar Bears. We played teams from Anaheim, Vancouver BC and San Diego. Our last game today was against the Vancouver Winterhawks. We played the Winterhawks tough, through the second period.
In the third we let up a couple of goals and eventually lost 5-2. Tough weekend!!
Our next tournament will be in Scottsdale over Christmas Break. Until then its practice! practice! practice! and a few Sonora League games and scrimmages to play in the next few weeks.
Yesterday, my teammates Logan, Trent and I had lunch and watched a tournament hockey game at Jobing.com Arena. Some of the teams were lucky to play on the Coyotes ice before they took on the Dallas Stars last night (and WON)!!
I am going to sleep in tomorrow, wish I was playing hockey!

Flash Back Jr. Coyotes in Michigan
My Mom just finished up putting together a few videos from last year when I played for the Jr. Coyotes. Here is a video from one of the Silver Stick Games at the St. Clair Shores Civic Center in Michigan.
Thanks Mom!
Polar Bears Back on the Ice Today!
We hit the ice today for a scrimmage against the DYHA Squirt AA team. I love playing those guys. I have lots of friends on the DYHA team and I have worked with Coaches Alex Hicks and John Kosobud over the summer. Totally tough competition! We tied the first time we played them a few weeks ago. Today we held them tight in the first period, down by 2. We 
lost it in the end 7-2.
Bad news is that we lost, good news is … we still have a few weeks before the official start of our season, and time to improve!
Back to work …
Practice Totally ROCKED!
There are 11 players from Arizona representing Team Northwest. We have two hours of ice time each day. The practices are great. My Coach Steve Johnson, is the Head Coach for the Fargo Force (USHL), and he played for the UND Fighting Sioux (WCHA).
We had team pictures, with the Canadian Rockies behind us.
The weather has changed today, it was cold and raining. The weather canceled our hike up Johnston Canyon for today, but we have two more days here to try. This afternoon, it got colder, darker and started snowing a bit. YEAH!
Having a great time, wish you were here! Murph
