SASKATOON BLADES 2012 SPRING CAMP

whl hockey!! sort of. so this weekend i got a little glimpse of the future, which looks quite nice, especially when it comes to the dmen. saw a couple familiar faces there, alex moodie obviously the main one. the games he played with us this season he was unreal. i would probably pick him over adam todd to be the backup from what I saw this past season. sucks for landyn hickmott (jordan's brother) who got smashed into the boards on saturday and had to go to the hospital...he said on sunday that he had a separated shoulder. i spent an awkward five or so minutes sitting in a dead quiet lobby with him while he waited to go to the hospital and waited for the other players to come out. yes I was on my phone the whole time..with no service in schroh arena. there were also quite a few players sporting a very nice flow (ahem christian stockl and wyatt hinson). cameron hebig and haydn hopkins both made me do a double take, since they're only 5'7 and 5'8. on sunday, some player hit macklin pichonsky into the boards and out popped the glass. but anyways it was a great weekend and I'm soooooo excited for training camp in august duh

bye whl :(

FAVOURITE 2011-12 WHL SEASON MOMENTS

ughhhhhhh i miss whl hockey already :( seriously this offseason can fuck itself already. this post is not very exciting.

1. CAMP: after a long offseason i was pumped to go watch camp at the end of august. seeing makarov there was like a breath of fresh air since stanford was an overager the season before and we eventually traded morrison. i didnt really like the part though when lukas sutter and dalton thrower almost ran me over in the parking lot.

2. PA HOME & HOME: of course we started off the season with a home and home vs the raiders. nice to see them suck early on. (seriously, when will they ever be good?)

3. VICTORIA: i couldnt wait to play the royals. chilliwack bruins whoooooo??

4. BURNS TRADE! sad to see bews and morrison go, but yay for michael burns! i remember liking him ever since seeing those "ask an oil king" videos.

5. PARADIS: getting jesse paradis from the warriors was so awesome. i really didnt think he would end up to be as helpful as he was. #paraparaparadise

6. MEMORIAL CUP: i remember exactly where i was when i read on twitter that we were hosting next season...in the shower. soooooo pumped to go!! suck it kelowna and red deer.

7. ALEX MOODIE: seriously what a beauty goalie. he played so good for us in the time that he could be with us. hopefully alot more mooooooooodie chants next season.

8. PACMAN: i swear the boys wore our vintage pacman jerseys for like ten games. i think there was a little superstition going on when we kept winning when we wore them...

9. JAKE'S FIGHT: oh you know it was coming. february 15th vs tanner eberle...but why didnt he do it at a home game??!!!!

10. PLAYOFFS: well, kinda. not the fact that we got swept, but the trip to medicine hat to see the first two playoff games. next season calls for trips to regina, vancouver and edmonton.

speaking of edmonton...

11. BANDWAGONING THE OIL KINGS: i swear i didnt just start bandwagoning them these playoffs, i have been since the beginning of the 2010-11 season. and i have allllllways wanted a blue third jersey. ive been crushing on the team for a while...


those are the ones i'm gonna post without it getting awkward.
