soooooo after four preseason games, i think its about time to get the season started. the first game in prince albert was horrible, especially because the whole population of saskatchewan was on the highway to PA. three of us went to the game and it may have been a good idea to wear bullet proof vest under our jerseys. we got our asses kicked in the second period and then ended up losing 6-2. also i may have been slightly off when i said medicine hat has the worst arena..i guess now they have one of the worst. the next day we played the raiders again in warman. packed house and we won 6-3 :) lucky for my followers on twitter there was no sevice in the arena sooo no tweets for me durng that game. on the 14th we were in regina.. makarov played his first game and we ended up winning 2-1. the next night we played them back at cuc for the first time this season.. very tight game the whole way, then we went up with 6 minutes left in the game, then they scored 2 quick ones :( stovin scored with 14 seconds left but it wasnt enough :( oh and not to mention they read one of my tweets with my name on the jumbotron...not embarassing at all. ohhhhh wellllllll i'm fired up for the home opener next saturday vs the raiders.
new boards and glass for the season, a few new players, a new seat for the season....fucking excited. i'm reeeally looking forward to watching new player logan harland this season. saw some great stuff from him last night. also excited to see homeless boy shane mccolgan play a legit game. no really sure whats up with our goalie alex moodie but i guess once he's healthy its a battle between him and patrick johnson...who i really havent seen play, at all. anyways, i love our schedule this season and even though i'm not expecting a 2010-11 season outcome, i'd (obviously) love it, i am more expecting a 09-10 outcome. also maybe we dont get swept in the playoffs? i can buy my memorial cup tickets in october and i am puuuuumped! see ya on friday/saturday :) go blades!!
update: i wrote this on sunday, so it wasnt "last night" that i saw good things from logan harland. and patrick johnson got sent down, so alex moodie should be almost set to go. anddddd, we signed matt revel today. very interested in seeing him play for the first time.
