Swimming in the Shark Tank

For the next (and, to date, last) stop on my hockeysee, I’ve entered the Shark Tank in San Jose to see the Sharks play the Bruins.  Which would be an awesome fight, sharks versus bears.

Into the Pond

The next destination on my hockeysee took me to the former Pond of Anaheim (now the Honda center, because they don’t like cool things I guess), where the (formerly Mighty) Ducks play hockey against the Predators from Nashville.

Crowning the Kings

The next installment of the hockeysee brings me to Los Angeles, the city of angels.  To see the Kings, who (of course) won the Cup the year I went.  Because I’m that good.

Welcome to SMASHVILLE!

For the (incredibly late) next entry on my hockeysee, I ventured to Nashville, home of the Predators, country music, and incredibly bad puns.

LEGO NHL Figure

Editor's Note: I know, I still need to write legit reviews for Nashville, LA, Anaheim, and San Jose, but I've been busy then lazy.

I do follow other blogs besides my own, one of which is Dave's Geeky Ideas (Link Here).  Some time ago, he posted an idea I just had to run with, 3D figures of NHL 94 (95,96,etc) players. Building this actually wasn't difficult, the only reason it took until today is because there was one very specific piece I ended up having to order from LEGO which took over a week and a half to get here.

My picks for the end of the year trophies

Hello all!  As this is the last day of the season, it's about time to think about the end of the year awards.  Now I've already thought about the Masterton trophy. I did so here. Now I have better lists and the season is (pretty much) over (I'm writing this in between NBC's 3rd and 4th games).  Obviously, if you need a refresher on what each trophy is, take a look here. I obviously won't list the awards which are statistical, because they really aren't up for a vote. Now, on to the awards.

Ice Wars: Episode VI

EPISODE VI

RETURN OF THE PREDATORS

After the terrible defeat in nearby Los Angeles, The young Predators must regroup in the suburb Anaheim.  They must do so without their best goaltender, as Pekka Solo was frozen in a block of solid ice by the despicable Darth Quick.  In his place, young Anders Lindback was forced to pilot the ship for the matchup with the Ducks of Anaheim, the last team they had defeated in the playoffs, even though it feels like such a long time ago.
