Game Night!!

For years I have endured many conversations with friends about hockey. Blah, blah, blah. Maple Leafs this, Habs that, Rangers are the best, my only response was 'Whatever'. Growing up hockey was not a big deal. Yes I played street hockey with the boys down the street but who didn't . The only sports that meant anything to me growing up were track and of course the Olympics. Dated a football player in highschool but that was it. After that came the friends and all the hockey. I did travel all the way to Montreal to watch the Habs in the Forum but could care less. Now I am proud to say that I am on board with this hockey thing. I mean really into this thing, never miss a game, text the scores to husband at work, and listen to the radio if I am not around a T.V. (station programmed in the radio in the van). I gotta say though that this Leafs TV channel is quite the thing. I will wait for a moment for those of you that do know me well to process all of this before I go on..............................Okay the next bomb to drop to the delight of some and the disappointment of others (sorry Belanger) I am proud to say that I am a Leafs fan.
SCORE.........Leafs just scored to make it 3-2 over Tampa Bay with 4 minutes left in the 3rd. I know that they are not the best but hey, ya gotta start somewhere, right? I missed out on a couple of Leafs tickets (SCCCORE) golds and 16 rows up from the ice. :o( Better luck next time. It seems I am the one to blame for the hockey fever in my house now. Everyone has just bought new skates and I have taught my 3 year old how to drop his gloves. Cute. Just to keep you all up to date Leafs 4 Tampa Bay 2. Stay tuned for the skating update. I have not been on skates is years but I just got a new pair of skates and we are off to the rink on Monday. Should be fun and not at all embarrassing. We are going attempt to teach our son to skate. Just to inform for those who care my fave players are not the usual suspects. Andrew Raycroft is an awesome goalie but my fave is #15 Kaberle. He is in the top 5 in defense for the Leafs , not much of a public speaker and very yummy. Something funny my daughter is in love with Tucker because he likes to fight.
