    Rhys you are the worst goalie I have ever seen.  I couldn’t figure out what you were doing.  It’s like you were a goalie trapped in a forwards body.  You couldn’t even put the right equipment on.  You were intent on not playing in your crease.  You wanted to stick handle and shoot and what goalie changes on the fly?  Honestly, worst goalie ever!!!  You were a pretty quick skater for a goalie though, I’ll give you that.  Didn’t stop a single puck however.

    Although its labour intensive, I thought about bundling things together.

    get some plastic blades that get screwed on to the end of a broken wooden stick (perfect school hockey stick) and get into primary schools as part of phys.ed program.  Add the game ticket(s) which are numbered or labled to introduce them to high end hockey.  Potentially as well, perhaps bundle a few classes or schools and host a “have a go” session to further get them into ice hockey.  They’ve already had a play around with road hockey, they’ve seen how its played on ice and now they get to try themselves.  Basically give them an experience.  There’s no hockey on tv to get the free exposure so I think regions have to work harder to get it.  That’s one idea I thought might work.

    yeah, a sort of family pass.  Make it viable for the parent.

    What about free to certain groups?  I was thinking more along the lines of primary schools etc.  Go into a school one week, introduce them to road hockey/ball hockey and give each one a free ticket specifically labled as a primary school ticket.  Some 30 year old with a beard tried using it, your radar flicks on.  I don’t think the bulk should go to full fee adults but the kids you are trying to attract.

    We had a guy taking photo’s.  They might go up for public consumption, not sure.

    Good game.  Shots on were 46 to 48 (not sure to who though)

    Proud of the boys for winning.  Stampede put up a hell of a fight.  Hats off to them.  The win isn’t worth much if its not against a good team.  They were good.  Stampede supporters made themselves known.  Lots of noise.

    just an example otherwise they need 5 jerseys shown.  All players will have their respective logo on their jersey.

    Good for the north islanders but from a spectator standpoint, the CRD v STP games this year seem to be the fan consensus best games to watch.  The final should be no different.  Best hockey is in the south this year.

    based on what I saw this year of thunder (4 games only) Duncan outperformed some of the d listed.  Vlok scored a couple on me since he was the only guy to work hard in front of the net.  He gets credit for that.  After that though, I didn’t notice him too much.  Jordane created the most attention.
