Hope you enjoy the pun in the title Pics of the not-so-new Jamie Benn jersey will be coming eventually, probably from the next game I go to.
Begin stream of consciousness from the last month or so…
School has completely taken over my life (and I imagine vet school has taken over Sarah’s), so my [...]

To be or not to be?

The playoff race in the Western Conference is in a scary place right now. Just last week, the Stars were in 5th all by themselves, and now we’re in a mess with 3 other teams for the 7-10th spots with the losses to Chicago and San Jose over the weekend.
Sarah and I were at the [...]
Barry Melrose Fired
Posted in Mike Smith, Non-Stars Hockey Stuff, Tampa Bay Lightning on November 14, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Barry Melrose has been fired from his job as head coach of the Tampa Bay Lightning.
I’m not sure this will really help the Lightning, but it’s certainly not going to do any harm. I thought Melrose was a laughable pick for coach over the offseason, but he’s not their only problem.
That team won’t get better [...]

*do do de dum* It’s time for the weekly ex-Stars update *do do de dum*
Niklas Hagman has been on fire in Toronto. He has 2 goals and 2 assists in the last two games (both against Carolina). Sadly they lost the first game and lost the second game in overtime. The goalies in Leafs Land [...]
Former Stars Update

I’m going to try to do one of these each week to keep everyone up to date on what’s going on with some of our former players.
First off, Smitty is playing wonderfully for Tampa. He only has one victory, but his GAA is 1.92 (4th in the league) and his save % is .943 (best in [...]
Ex-Stars Updates

Niklas Hagman scored his first goal for the Leafs yesterday afternoon against St. Louis. The Leafs ended up losing 5-4 in a shootout, but Haggy got the goal to go ahead 4-3. I hope this is the first of MANY goals for him in Toronto this season. He doesn’t look so terrible in blue, but [...]

Game 1 is tonight guys! For all of you going to the watching party at AAC, have lots of fun for me! I’ll be watching the game while I study for my stats final… doesn’t sound nearly as much fun as being at the AAC.
In other news, Jeffy is out 6 to 8 months with [...]
One Month Later

It’s been one month since the trade. You guys know I was really against messing with the chemistry of this team to get a player who might make things better in the playoffs. When the trade happened, several people told me that I would come to love the trade, that the guys we gave up [...]
3/15 vs. Vancouver L 4-3
Posted in Dallas Stars, Mike Smith, Tampa Bay Lightning on March 16, 2008 | 4 Comments »
Hey guys, sorry for the lack of updates recently. Things should be picking up for a week or so once I get home for spring break.
There hasn’t been a lot worthwhile to update about though… Stars lost to Detroit on Thursday and they lost again to Vancouver last night. I guess they’re just getting into [...]
Quick Update

Sorry for the lack of updates lately… I haven’t died, but school has completely taken over my life. Hopefully I’ll have some more time next week over spring break.
The Stars don’t play again until Thursday, and I have a concert that night so I won’t be able to do any blogging about the game. Maybe [...]
