I read some
guy’s hockey blog a few weeks ago and he said that he’d rather write about ice
girls because he thought that hockey players were stupid. Sorry buddy, but I
think we ALL know who the dim one is, and it’s not hockey players! Not sure why
he was even writing about hockey if he dislikes the athletes involved, but that’s
none of my business.
My friend
Matty had his Eleventh Birthday yesterday. He’s a stage 4 cancer survivor and
every day is a battle of some sort due to his health problems.
Matty loves
hockey. He lives and breathes the game. I tweeted the Bulls players and asked
them to tweet Matty to wish him a Happy Birthday. He was so surprised that many
of them did, including Coach Curcio. Matty and his family were really touched
by the team’s warm-heartedness and I’ll never forget it. To a good kid who
doesn’t have a whole lot of great days, they helped make his birthday a Great
Day.
Of
all the players I’ve met, spent time with, none were stupid. None were nasty or
self-centered. The Bulls players are as cool as they get.
So, don’t go
telling me how stupid athletes are, especially hockey players. You say that to
my face, you’ll be lucky to get away with a stern talking to.
In AMAZING
Bulls news, the team took 2 games out of a 3-game series from the top team in
the ECHL, the Alaska Aces. I wrote about Friday night’s game already. Saturday night’s
game was close with the Bulls losing 2-1. The game was an exciting battle
throughout, but the team just couldn’t get pucks past the Aces’ goalie Gerald
Coleman.
Today’s game
seemed more like a mission than just a game. The San Francisco team was
determined to win. Dean Ouellet ranked a score first, followed by two goals by Peter
Sivak, giving him a team high of 21 goals. D. Ouellet has 20.
Jordan
Clendenning got into a nasty fight as well. I sure wish the Bulls would FILM
Bulls’ fights! It would be awesome to watch and rate them on www.hockeyfights.com!
The game was
so close through the entire 60 minutes. It ended at 2-2 in regular time and
went into Overtime. Sivak dropped in the first goal and the Bulls win 3-2!
Next Bulls
game is in Stockton Wednesday, January 30th. Next home game is
January 31st against Ontario. We got this.
GO BULLS!!!
