Let's hope all of those Hockey moms out there enjoy their special day today. Most every pro hockey player has a mom who took her kids to countless practices and weekend games... in many cases not hearing the thanks that she deserves. They are a glue that keeps this sport alive. If you know a hockey mom, do something special for her today.
Been a busy work week for me. Still trying to play 'catch-up' with the web site, but couldn't get much done. I should have more free time to work on it in the coming week.
In the meantime, I would like to encourage Admiral fans hungry to see some great playoff hockey to consider taking in a game in Rockford, as they are trying to win their first Cup. They are the Admirals affiliate, and I've given them my support for years now. That ends in a week or so, when their UHL era comes to a close, and they begin the transition to the AHL as a divisional rival to the Admirals.
I may even take in a Chicago Wolves game, as they have advanced to the Conference Finals. If they advance to the Finals, it would be a great chance for Admirals fans to see an Eastern Conference team, up close and in person. Too bad we can't do that more often in the regular season.
My brother came up with an observation this week that I gotta agree with. Why is it when you see people out and about in a Detroit Red Wings jersey, that it looks like they are wearing one a few sizes too small? This generally does not pertain to people you see at a game... but rather for the types who call themselves fans, but never go to a game. I'm guessing many of those 'fans' go to the mall and try one on as if they are buying a t-shirt. I had a boss who was a Detroit 'fan'... never saw him in a jersey, but I don't think they make them in his 'Jabba the Hutt' size.
And this reminds me, next season, the new Rbk performance jersey will be used in the NHL and AHL. Expect a steep price increase to buy the new type of jersey, so if you want a jersey of your favorite team, get one soon before the convential style sells out.
