for serious, the roof is on fire.

Ahhhh. So nice to be home in my arena. With lots of legroom. And not having to wait ten minutes to take a piss.

Fun stuff. The arena was on fire tonight. Not figuratively like “oh the Chiefs are smoking the Ams!” It was on fire, as in the giant scoreboard shorted and caused a fire of unknown size. And roughly eight firefighters were crawling around the rafters. The game was not stopped. I talked to a section leader and I guess they were ready to evacuate the arena. But alas, no. The game barreled on.

Which is good. No momentum was ruined. Ondrej Roman scored in the first period from David Rutherford and Judd Blackwater. This line is amazing, and has been stellar. The playoffs really has been Roman’s Empire. Then in the third period Rutherford scored from Seth Compton and it was glorious.

Dustin Tokarski was his usual golden self. I was actually sorta paying attention to his ticks tonight. That kid must take forever to wash his hands. I don’t care, he gets the job done.

ain’t nobody watching you, everett. you ain’t that fly.

I guess Kyle Beach is sporting a full mask because he has an eye socket injury and if someone punches him, he could go blind. Fine, he is still a prick. Sending Harty to do his work for him.

Everett decided to not play entirely dirty tonight and played a bit o’ hockey. It was cute, really.

Ondrej Roman scores in the first. Seth Compton scored in the second. Roman again in the third. And Mitch Wahl shot an empty netter with a vengeance in the last 2 minutes. Tokarski had a relatively easy night with only one ‘Tips goal slipping past.

For reasons I am not entirely sure of, Seth Compton was interviewed after the game wearing a yellow hard hat. How Bob the Builder.

eye candy.

Some visual aides from last night. I think they might be need in some LOL treatment.

Bow in the presence of greatness.

Holy shit. Chiefs beat the Ams, on a buck night. In a shut out to be precise. Tokarski was unmovable object, he let nothing get by him.

Roman scored the lone goal in the first. Rutherford scored in the second. Rutherford also punched Colton Yellow Horn. And Rutherford ditched the blond hair. About time. Compton and Bowman smacked goals in the third.

Some Spokane fans sat behind the Ams bench armed with stadium horns and cow bells. The Ams coach was freaking out demanding security to boot them. But security laughed him off and told the fans not to touch the glass.

It was quite the game of penalties. The first one makes me smile. When I told one fan that Yellow Horn thought he looked like Brad Pitt, he laughed and said “Yellow Horn looks like he ate Brad Pitt.”

Chocolate rain, y’all

Ok, so hang with me. Just a bitttt hungover. Otherwise I would have posted last night. But I didn’t want to embarrass myself the next morning with drunken blogging. I have been there. The typos ain‘t pretty.So last night completely and utterly ruled. A bit of playing the Tri Cities at home problem may have been solved. First, you rain down four goals in the first period. Second, you destroy the spirit of Tri Cities goalie Chet Pickard. Third, continue to allow David Rutherford to be a p-i-m-p.First period saw goals from Seth Compton, David Rutherford, Chris Bruton and Drayson Bowman. Which saw me gloating and screaming at the Ams fans a few rows in front of me.If you wear a Colton Yellow Horn jersey. Expect shit talking. No one likes that guy. Second period no goals from Spokane but two from the Ams. Whatever, I would just point at the scoreboard. Third period one goal from the Ams and two more from Spokane. Another goal for Rutherford and Mitch Wahl scored an empty netter Chalupa getter goal.The ice was pink and the Chiefs had pink stick tape in support of curing breast cancer. Though I think if the Chiefs were serious they would have the boys in pink jerseys and then auction those off. Because it would rule to have a pink jersey. Even though I hate girlie jerseys. If it’s for a good cause, hells yeah I am in. But if they were to auction them off, do not allow billets or parents of the players to bid. It seems tacky and sucks for fans.

The funny part is how much the Ams out shot us, but we were more successful with our shots.

McCrae is out with the flu. Get better, yo. Campbell’s soup and America’s Next Top Model reruns do wonders for your health.

Pictures to come later.

All hail St. Tokarski.

Download this: Chocolate Rain by Tay Zonday Dude, I will never get over this song. Ever.

Same as it ever was.

The puck didn’t drop until 7:45 on Saturday. Which made for a long night. The arena was full/cramped because it was Buck Night. Children ran amok in Heelies and dudes drank more beer because, well, what else were we gonna do?

I think my new rule is always give the puck to Tyler Johnson. That kid can breakaway like mad. It’s some serious Sonic the Hedgehog action. He popped in a gorgeous goal unassisted in the first. And I was excited. I happily ate my dollar hot dog and pounded down curly fries ready for a good night of hockey. And then Seth Compton pops a goal in first as well. I am now slamming down my Coke screaming at Tri Cities and directing my hatred at Colton Yellow Horn, who’s last name sounds like a type of STD. Colton Yellow Horn decided to throw my insults in my face and score a goal. I am not please.

We head to the second and the Americans decide to ruin my day and score another goal tying it all up. I spend the rest of the second and third praying to whoever the hockey god is to not let this go to a shoot out.

Goddamit, we are going to a shoot out. And we lost.

Jace Coyle is on my black list for making a dumb move and essentially giving an assist to Tri Cities. I hope he went home and cried that night.

The game was evenly matched. So I should have seen this coming. Tokarski continues to hold it down and I have no complaints.

Buck Night is a curse. I think it’s a guaranteed loss. I wanna see some facts and figures. Someone have that on my desk by lunch on Monday.

Next game is Wednesday. I honestly can’t remember who we are playing.
