SASKATOON BLADES: NOVEMBER 2012


much. better. month.
out of 11 games, we ended up winning 7, so that makes for a happy fan right there. so the boys started out the month on the road in kootenay and lethbridge. it seems like on most of our roadies (even the short ones) we can never get the sweep, so, we won 3-2 vs the ice and lost 5-4 vs the canes. the next weekend we had our last two games before heading out west. again, we won 6-3 vs the pats but then lost to seattle 6-2 on the saturday. on friday, (as you probably already know) jessey astles got his wrist cut by a skate blade during/after a fight and had to be sent to the hospital. i guess he hopes to be back in time for playoffs (IN MARCH!!!) but hey, what can you do. injuries have been a bitch to us lately, with astles, stovin and thrower,and then mccolgan being out vs kelowna (sucks he had to miss playing his old team). the bc road trip went better than i thought it would... big wins against prince george and vancouver to start it off was friggin exciting. we lost 5-2 in victoria, won 3-2 in kamloops then got our asses handed to us in kelowna. anddddd then a home game!! on the 27th lethbridge was in town. over 6000 people showed up and watched us win 5-3. then on friday we were in calgary, which youll hear about in the next post ha.
so overall the month was good, the blowout loss was obviously the downfall but we sure responded good to it. in other news, brett lernout cut his hair and now looks like a 2. earlier in the month we traded for nathan burns (his brother michael played with us last year), also it was nice that logan harland gave up his number to nathan so that he could wear the same number as his brother. bad thing about the trade, we traded basically my last standing favourite player, travis mcevoy. first stockl, then mcevoy...i guess lernout holds that title now, who knows what'll happen come trade deadline.
also, movember treated brenden walker verrrrrrrry well.
