M is a genius. I have no idea why we didn’t think of it sooner; DR DRAY. That’s right. It was the Drayson Bowman Show and it always cleverly written with the right mix of drama and lighthearted romps. It’s like Freaks and Geeks. Just sans James Franco. Bows posted a lovely three points for the evening with 2 goals and one assist. I had been wondering just where Mitch Wahl has been since he has seemed a bit…lost. But tonight he got a goal and I was pleased. I think the real treat of the evening which was the Brady Calla goal (Super Calla Special, sounds like a sushi roll). Really lovely stuff. I hope there is vid. He was so happy to score, fist pumping like Jason Blake. Justin McCrae also scored. The seasoned players werethe ones throwing their weight around in this game. Tyler Johnson insists he should fight. I still do not advise this…
I heard Seth Compton was at the game. I never saw him. I haz a sad.
Y’all ready for round two? This post is blah. I might massively re-edit in the morning. G’night.
Props to Mitch Wahl for finally finding the net … also, loved the clusterphuck of letting Bowman out after they scored on the 5-3 … as his penalty is still running down on the scoreboard my sister in law says “why is bowman on the ice” … and I guess he was on the ice because it is so damn tough to keep track of who should/shouldn’t be in a penalty box … great job seattle coach with the bench minor and game misconduct (was it worth it) … next up, Vancouver

The thought of playing Vancouver makes me want to hurl.
Ok I thought I saw the Seattle coach toss something onto the ice in anger over Bowman getting out of the box early? I probably imagined a hissy fit.

could be … we sit across the ice so I couldn’t tell if he threw something … he had good reason to be pissed

Yes the thought of it makes me want to hurl as well. It seems to me that we always play like were totally intimidated and can’t beat them. I remember the games we played against them and got beat… we didn’t play good at all. We can do it but we’ve got to come to play. Im hoping we do! Im not ready for this season to be over!!!!

Van= hard work but not impossible!
And from what I heard the coach of Seattle did throw something at the ref!

P.G. held Vancouver off for a while. If we play like the team I know we are, we can totally kick their A’s… we just need to be consistant and awesome. I grabbed seats in Vancouver right behind the penalty box in preperation to be the “one really loud fan from out of town rooting for the other guys”… I’m so ready. Let’s do this!
After the convo I overheard a few months back and the his “performance” at last nights game… I officialy dislike the Seattle coach.

Bring on the Giants! We’ll make them not so Giant…..or something like that.
Question: Where can I schedule an appointment with Dr Dray?
Calla is edging a place in my hockey heart. I think I am going to miss him.
Great game!

Oh yeah, I am now keeping track of how many times in a row Cory Baldwin can wear his seafoam green shirt and tie combo to a game. So far, I am on game 3 (though who knows what the boy wore in Seattle). SERIOUSLY, we need to take the boy shopping.
By: Monica on March 29, 2009
at 4:44 pm
SERIOUSLY! I wonder if it’s even a real tie. Or if it’s like a fake tie attached to the shirt. I’d like to see him in a pastel purple with a paisley pink/purple tie. Trust me, it would look great.

He wore it again? That makes me laugh, guys just think everyone won’t notice if they wear the same clothes 2 days in a row, or if they wear the same shirt 3(or more..) games in a row.I like the purple and pink idea, the green is just not working. I’m down for a shopping trip!!

I agree someone needs to take good ol’ Cory Baldwin shoppin for some new fress clothes…
By: NoStache16 on March 29, 2009
at 11:53 pm
I know! Seriously! If he wears it again at Tuesday (like 1 week and 2 days from now) game, I am going to have to say something to him.
CORY BALDWIN: Call me. I got the hook up. We can ditch the green. Put you in so nice blues, maybe even a red shirt. You, me and Dr. Dray can go do some damage at Macy’s. Bowman knows how to dress to accentuate those lovely lips of his. You too can do the same.

oh yeah, I was planning to watch the 11 o’clock news and I forgot until it was like 11:20. Soon as I turned it on it was featuring the chiefs coming out of the shoot and all the goals, including the awesome Calla one! Then they had some clips of Mitch Wahl talking, then Tokarski(who was rocking a construction hat, haha) and some of Hardy Sauter too. Great timing!

AH! What news was it on? I hope the clip is online. I need a pic of Toka the construction worker. Ahhahahah.

There we so many adjectives to describe last nights game. I almost jumped two guys and offered them cash for their jerseys… I saw a Calla one as I was leavin and I saw that Grabby one again!! Meeee neeeeddddsss iiiittttt!
How about Spurge with the “OOHH HHEEEELLLL NOOOO!” puck swat outta the net? Best play all year I’m thinkin. It was uneffingbelieveable! I had to stand and clap.

That play was flippin amazing!!! I kinda felt like no one around me saw though, I freaked out and it was pretty much silent in my section haha.

That play was AMAZING probably one of the best defensive plays I have seen all season hands down! <3 for Spug last night!!

Has anyone heard anything about Reddington? The kid has dissappeared off the map! The last thing I heard he had the flu, but that was like a week ago! Redder-watch needs to be invoked asap!
By: nana289 on March 29, 2009
at 10:22 pm
I did see Reddington at the game. He was sitting with the guys and then got up and left (I think it was at the beginning of the second period??? Can’t remember), and I didn’t see him for the rest of the game I’d recognize that cute red faux-hawk anywhere.

Well good…hopefully he gets over whatever he’s got and soon!

I think this offseason some of you could waste your time updating/inserting wikipedia pages for a few of the boys …. and if they wear the same thing three games in a row, you could make sure and include that sort of information as well …

That’s an excellent idea. Nearly every page will mention their love of ketchup chips.

no problem, everyone must see this cuteness. When I watched it I was like “Why is he wearing a construction hat? Ah who cares, he looks cute!!” haha
By: hockey&horses on March 30, 2009

Oka that was cute!! && I don’t know the details or if it is true but I heard that the #1 star of the game wears a hard hat to signify his hard working performance or something weird like that lol!
