I flew into (sunny) Tampa, FL yesterday, drove down to Ft. Myers today, and just got around my laptop. The drive was filled with XM Radio, shouting, yelling, cheering, confusion, and insects. So I just have a little brain and awareness to post a few thoughts on the trades that happened:
Brad May: Good. Get out. [...]

Today, Zanstorm over at Waiting for Stanley points out a tip he got from Greg at The Fourth Period about a Devils blog he didn’t know about, called 2 Man Advantage. (Follow that?) I didn’t know about it either. And on 2 Man, they have links to some New York Islanders blogs I had never [...]

The Czech hockey bar was a decent time tonight. The Avs-centric crowd was most likely at the game, or hiding their heads at their homes tonight. There was a contingent of Habs fans in the back, watching their team squeak past the Predators in the shootout. They were more vocal and active then the Avs [...]

The ballet opens tomorrow night, and while the schedule has not been extreme, our first night of work, striking the opera, ended only a few hours before returning to start setting up the ballet. That first day pretty much kicked my ass, and I haven’t been able to watch much hockey, nor have the brain [...]

Ever since the start of the season, I haven’t had much interest in ESPN. Even though the falling out of the NHL and ESPN started as the lockout ended, this year, the love is not there between myself and the Boys from Bristol.Â
Tonight, Altitude (the local cable sports channel owned by the Avs ownership) will [...]

Last night, I was talking on the phone to MegMegMeg, and she brought up how she just wished Forsberg would do what he was going to do.
I said, “He should stay in Philly. He should stay with his team. He would never have to buy a beer in a Philly bar ever again.”
That may not [...]

I didn’t think I would have to do this so soon again. I really didn’t want to have to, but someone needs to be the voice of the people here.
Versus, can you please stop sucking so hard?
Maybe it’s this team calling the action, but there was a game played that seemed to be interrupting their [...]

So, yesterday, I taped the Avs – Stars game to watch when I go home from work. The only mistake I made was not coming directly home to watch it. Instead, I went by the bookstore, wearing my Avs jersey, where a random person blew the outcome for me.
“Oh, yeah. They lost.”
I watched about a [...]

Eric at Off Wing Opinion reports that the NHL is in talks with Versus about a daily NHL highlights show. starting next season.
Now, I know I had nothing to do with it, and maybe Eric had nothing to do with it, but it sure is fun to speculate. I would seriously doubt that anyone from the [...]

I was considering plunking down the hard earned dollars to go to the game tonight at The Can, but decided against it. Instead, I spent the pregame surrounded by Avs fans at the downtown Old Chicago (the one with a non-descript Avs player painted on the side of the building), and the rest of the [...]
