Thirty Days of Sharing
Day 06 → Whatever tickles your fancy
I've been meaning to post this picture for a while, so I might as well use it for this. There are good rookies and bad rookies. Victor Hedman strikes me as a good rookie, and this picture proves me right. A good rookie wants to learn and knows to be quiet and absorb everything anyone wants ( Read more... )

( Game notes, kinda. Lightning vs Thrashers. )

Overheard in my house....

I was watching a thing on the Bermuda Triangle on the History Channel:

The Guy on TV: ...and Florida is the lightning capital of the US.
Me: Except South Florida. They don't have Lightning, they have Panthers.

The Rangers, Flyers game starts, my mother and I are talking:

Me: ...and he's a Flyer ( Read more... )

I think I love him.Noah Welch is a new Lightning. I love his city accent. He grew up in Brighton and now owns a place in the North End. My grandfather grew up on Hanover Street, which he mentions. Though he was there during the Depression, when it was much different and not so yuppie. I would love to live there. I can't describe how badly I want to ( Read more... )

"I am a player. I don't want to be just considered a fighter." - Canucks D Shane O'Brien [SourceYou go, Shane! That's what he learned from being a Lightning. I'm glad he's keeping it ( Read more... )

And more hockey...

The Ottawa Senators signed defenceman Jason Smith. -- I can hear the conversation with his agent: "Canada, I tell you!"

Pavol wants to be a Canuck when he grows up. -- Um, okay? Random. But I wouldn't want to be a Wild either.

The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed Brandon Bochenski. -- Oh look, he's New Guy on a team of New Guys ( Read more... )

And more for the WTF?! files...

Mark Recchi signs with Tampa. -- They've actually officially bought themselves a team.

Evgeni Artyukhin signs with Tampa again. -- And swears this time he wants to play. Oh great. They sign him because the Rangers already had Nikky and every bought team needs a Russian with questionable desire to play the game.

Stream of Consciousness about the Dodgers game: Derek...scored a run. Derek Lowe. The pitcher. Scored a run. And then...Nomar had an RBI. Nomar playing short. I turned the game on and heard "...and Garciaparra to Loney..." and I exclaimed out loud, "Nomar!" It was a long day at work and maybe I'm hallucinating, but I don't think so. We have a ( Read more... )

More news, various sports....

The Lightning want me to hate them. More than I already do. If he agrees, I really won't watch the Lightning at all next season. Vinny isn't enough reason, especially after that contract he signed. I wish he had left. I don't want any ties to this damn team. Especially not if they're going to trade Danny.
