Ahhhh, the hipsters in buses have descended on California yet again. The Canucks first came to San Jose and beat the Sharks 3-2 in ot, then they made their way down the coast and killed the Ducks 5-2 and finally have landed in our home for the game tonight. I think they are ready for a beat-down […]

Yes, I know we lost tonight but I don’t care. We have a cohesive team playing hockey. They played tonight the way they played last night. Tough, competitive and with their hearts. I saw a moment when the new coach, Sutter, tapped Bernier on the shoulder and I swear I could hear him saying to Bernier, […]

This observation is not so much about last night’s game as it is about women and hockey in general. Back in the 50′s, it was all about the husband, father, uncle, brothers’ opinion on the game. No matter how much I loved the game, I was never allowed to express my opinion. Now, thanks to […]

This is the 4th of our 6 meetings so far this season. We are 2-1 against the Ducks and hope to make that 3-1 tonight. Both the Kings and the Ducks have played well below their expectations this year. But the Ducks suck more! Ha! This is the first meeting of the new coaches. Sutter […]
