Hey everyone, firstly thanks to everyone for coming to the games! Me, Cam, Ryan and Brent all got a good buzz off the signs and the chanting!!
Yea its frustrating to not play, but you have to start somewhere, and i will work my way up, we all just need tons of powerskating and experience, the skating especially for me! Besides the team is basically the ice blacks squad in our first 3 lines, so it makes sense to play them as much as possible. Also at this level it gets beyond the stage of giving a fair amount of ice time to everyone, and if i was the coach i would do whatever it takes to win, even if that means not playing everyone. He will give us our shot, and we will have to earn more ice time by playing well when we do get an opportunity!Seriously though, Dave seems like an awesome coach from what i have seen so far. He does want to develop young players like us, and hopefully one day we will play in the top lines as we learn systems and strategy.
As for Dunedin getting our own team, there are a lot of politics involved, however, one of the main reasons people oppose the idea is the fact that although we may have been able to field a team for the 2007 season, what about 2008? The fact is we do not have a solid team that goes away together all the time. We have a great number of players that go to university, and so for most, this is their priority. We see it in the DIHL with players not turning up for every game, this is fine as people have important stuff they need to do and it cannot be avoided, but for superleague there is no way we would compete unless everyone was playing evey week 2+ times together and we had solid lines that always played together. Although we may be able to field an alright team, from year to year quite a few people will leave, and we may be left with a team not nearly up to standard for the super league.
So im not sure what we will have to do to get our own team, but i think it would be awesome to have a team here. The Stampede really feels like a team, eveyone revs each other on all the time, thats what we need in Dunedin i think.
But wow nothing matches the atmosphere of superleague, even if you dont play and are so nervous u muck up the warm up haha!
Anyway see everyone tuesday night,
STIFF #19Great job Ryan!!! Many people have commented saying you did an awesome job. On the ice we couldnt hear much, but it really pumped up the warm up. Great choice of music too, was great to warm up to zombie nation, really gets u excited!! And lets be honest the warm up is the 4th lines time to shine haha!
Only thing i could comment on that i heard was in the first game when u announced some stuff, it sounded like u were holding back a bit. I know it must have been pretty nerve-rackin, but if you do it again, go for it and add as much emotion as you can to the announcing! Awesome tho man.
Peace and godbless rink announcers,
STIFFHaha thanks Kyle, its my last year being classed as Under20, so i was lucky to be able to pull that card i think.
Its gonna be exciting tomorrow night for sure, especially matching up against Paris again! Hes playing on their 3rd line so hopefully i can get a shift against him!
Haha nice Ry, it looks good, hopefully i can wear number 19 again, would be pretty sweet.
Haha nice call Joe, Ry’s stick was looking pretty unhealthy, i suggested therapy or seeing an anger management councelor? It sucks how we cant get these dam games, bloody new zealand and its love for rugby. They show horse racing, world dart events and amateur poker tournaments, and no disrespect to those sports, but they arent anywhere near the level that Stanley Cup Finals hockey is at!
Ryan: I, like you; have jumped on the Ottawa bandwagon, i like how after the Canucks lost (may they rest in peace), a senators profile picture mysteriously appeared under your name!!!! ’tis a shame them Sabres lost however, but theres always next year?
I think we should get peoples opinions about goals horns for this weekend for Stampede, as some of u may know, Ryan is the Rink Announcer for the game which is good, someone with a bit of passion for the game of hockey should make for some great announcing!
My prediction for the cup finals: Ottawa to finally take the cup home to Canada, where it belongs. Id say theyl win it in 6 games at home in Ottawa.
Jason Spezza to step it up a notch and net a few key goals for the boys in red, with the top line of Alfredsson, Heatley and Spezza lighting it up and proving too strong for the now not so “mighty” Ducks!
Ryan, is there anywhere we can get a projector and watch the game live? Joe offered his house and told me he would be willing to shout beer for everyone. Hes such a nice guy.
