I would gladly take this puck to the head.It's here! It's here! The sound of skates scraping the ice. The sound of sticks cracking and pucks smaking endboards. The sound of Gui! smooshing a small guy into the glass. The sound of Andrei getting elbowed to the head. The sound of 21k+ people chanting "PK!PK!PK!". The sound of the VIA train horn as the red light goes on and the train circles the rink. The sound of U2's Vertigo (yes, it's back apparently).
Oh how I missed you, hockey.
But I was stuffing my face with delicious sushi while Gomez, Cammalleri, and D'Agostini scored goals. I only heard the pre-game skate on the radio and I could sense Gomez' smile through my speakers. I also tuned back in to hear the end of it, and the 3 stars. Bravo guys! And hey Price only faced 9 shots and stopped them all? No prob. Poor Sandford getting all the work in their split game, but hey he'll be used to that later. The purpose of tonight's exercise was to introduce some new stars, warm them up and build their chemistry, then let the kids strut their stuff. Even Rhino got to put those boxing lessons to some use.
Alls I gotta say: Cammy to Spacek to Gomez and it's all red light. Beautiful.
Thanks for the great birthday present guys!
