Law Goalie 147 Report post Posted December 23, 2011 Had an Olympian out to guest-coach with my goalies, got my first ice in months, received an absolutely glowing review on my latest paper, and discovered a blindingly good Sicilian table wine. Now to start on making my pads...After 3 years of procrastination I finally made my tree this week!Brilliant. Next year: goal-light on top, siren in the base.

carodz 17 Report post Posted December 23, 2011 Only one semester left until I get my Bachelor's degree. Finished up the Fall with 4 A's and a B, so I'm pretty happy about that.Also, Merry X-mas to me: my girlfriend got me tickets to see the Hawks play in Dallas during Spring Break (see the red star below). I'm pretty damn happy. I've been to hundreds of minor league games (CHL) but never an NHL game. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Powerfibers 8 Report post Posted December 26, 2011 Best part of Christmas was watching my nephew try out the One95 sick we found and bought for him. His eyes lit up after the first shot off the practice pad. It was awesome! He has never had better than a forty dollar stick before. At 12 he is a pretty darn good little player.

Chadd 916 Report post Posted December 28, 2011 After working 14 of the last 17 days, it's time for a little relaxation. I've only had five days off since the MSH game in Detroit and most of the days have been of the 12+ hour variety. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JoeyJ0506 192 Report post Posted December 28, 2011 After being out of work for the majority of the last eight months I have been offered a pretty awesome job that pays well, has benefits, and is close to home. It really makes the river of crap I've been swimming through worth it. Employment is pending a drug test, but being as I've never partaken, I should be working within the next week and a half.
