[seapotato]

that's awesome he made the team, and he's doing great on it!


Must be kinda weird and cool listening to the TSN pack of idiots ( McGuire et al) talking about your nephew.

Looking forward to the USA game...

Cheers guys...

[seapotato]

yeah, I scared the s*** outta the dogs, hooting and yelling when they tied it with 5 seconds to go...

I'll have to take your word for it on the 72 thing , I was still just a gleam in me pappy's eye back then...

 

[Toshi38]

[FLYINGLOW]

Canada wins gold

 

[seapotato]

Hey Wombat, were you at the game last night when he got his first NHL goal?




He looked like one of their best players in the 3rd and OT,

Pretty cool result, Benn scores to tie it, canucks still win in shootout...

 

[wombat]

No i didnt go in the end we had thanksgiving dinner here and watched the game with my dad(Jamie,s grandad) and family.It was one of the toughest games to watch because im a die hard cunuck fan but was cheering for Dallas. There was 9 family members at the game including Dingo. With about 3 minutes left i said if he is going to score his first nhl goal now would be a great time and sure enough he did. For a 20 year old kid he sure didnt look out of place out there.

 

[dingo]

it was a sweet game

Victoria's Jamie Benn had 'hometown' support against Canucks

 

[wombat]

The season is over for the Dallas Stars and Jamie played in all 82 games,he scored 22 goals and 19 assists while learning to play center for the first time in his life.He lead all NHL rookies in even strength goals(19)and steals or takeaways and hits. They sent him to the AHL Texas Stars for their Calder Cup run and he has 3 goals and 3 assists in 3 games so far. So last night and this fri night i got Jamie on the computer at 5pm and the Nucks on the tube at 7pm,no wonder i never get any work done on the 42

 

[jinzuke]

Wow what a NHL start

 

[seapotato]

Yeah he looked great in the couple games I saw him in !


Heh, my only hockey playing relation isn't quite so well liked....

Apparently Eddie Shore was me grandma's cousin. For you young fellers out there, Don Cherry still curses his name at every opportunity...
