NHL in Saskatoon


Last Sunday Mike and I were off to see the last game of NY Islanders training camp against Gust's beloved Oilers. We had great seats thanks to our lovely wives. The game was pretty good, lots of young guys trying to earn spots with the bug club.

Tavaras played and setup a nice goal halfway thru the game and it seemed like alot of the people came out to try and get a glimpse of the future NHL superstar that he is projected to be. In the end the oil lost 3-1 as they never seemed to get in sync.

We were fortunate enough to see big Steve McIntyre pound the be-jesus out of some poor rook on the islanders. The guy can barely skate... but wow can he chuck knuckles.

Anyways after the game we took a cab to Shark club for a beer and Gust ran into a few of the Islander players that he's served the night before at the Tusq. Two of the guys that I recognized were Jon Sim and Trent Hunter. It was a good night out and we both weren't feeling any pain by the time we got home.
