Title: World Jr. Hockey Champs 4 Peat
Post by barry_sword on Jan 6^th, 2008, 8:08am

Congrats to the Canadian World Jr. Hockey Team! [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I am not a hockey fan but watched the last couple of games in HD on my 50 Plazma tv, WOW!! The thing I like about this hockey compared to the NHL is there is not the fighting and violence, a much cleaner game.

Proud of you guys! ;;D

I miss my Canadian Hockey. Had a nephew who went all the way - they were going to sign him to the NHL as a goalie, he turned them down. He found girls.

He is pursuing his masters degree in bio-electronics if I remember correctly.

Lord knows he had the arrogance to make it in the NHL LOL.

As a goalie he was the best, the kid was a sight to behold, from pee wee on he let in a total of 12 goals. Now well in his 20's, he has no regrets. Oh to have those kinds of choices in life.

(his university was paid for by scholarship I might add....)

Cat

p.s. he now mentors kids in softball and hockey.

Sounds like a nice young man, and has his head screwed on right. Good for him! [smiley=thumb.gif]

Did you see the NHL game played last week outdoors in Buffalo ? With the snow it reminded me of the good OLD days.
