Stars Fall Flat In Anaheim

I really do not know how I could possibly point out any bright points in this atrocious loss to the Ducks . Oh , wait , here it is ; Lehtonen , Lehtinen and Richards played great . That pretty much covers the good points of this game besides Loui Eriksson's...

Weird Game , Positive Results

I do not think I have ever seen a game in which nine goals were all scored into the same visiting net but in different periods . I guess the home net had the hockey gods' protection . I still think it was just weird . This game was like three different...

Shark For Dinner Again ? I Hate Leftovers .

Coming into this game , we knew that if we lost this game , we would be mathematically eliminated from the playoffs . We played like we did not want to be counted out just yet . You have no idea of how proud that makes me - even when deep down , I do...

No April Fools At Stars' Practice

I finally made it out to a practice after trying to make it out there two other times . Of the other two times , one was cancelled and the other one the players were actually flying back into the state during the scheduled practice time . Sounds like...

Letter to Mike Modano

I hand-delivered this note to Mr. Modano before a practice in Frisco . I have chosen to share this with you because I think we all should have let Mr. Modano know how much he means to us all . I intended this to be as short as possible while still conveying...

Letter To Jere Lehtinen

I delivered this letter to Mr. Lehtinen before a practice in Frisco as well . This is a little more personal to me than the one I composed to Mr. Modano (for reasons you will understand when you read it) . I again tried to keep it as short as possible...

If This Is It ..............

Before I get any further , I need to thank my wife for going with me to the last home game of the season . She has had TAKS testing going on all week in her school district . We arrived home very late – and we knew we would – but she sacrificed...

Don't Blame Joe .

First off I need to apologize for not blogging more , but I have had rotator cuff surgery and that set me back a bit . Obviously , Our Dallas Stars have decided against offering a contract to Mike Modano . Many people out there are placing the blame for...

Down And Out

The game against the Chicago Chickenhawks reminded me of the rest of our season . Here is how ; Goaltending In the game - Poor Matt Climie . The Chickenhawks have out-shot all their opponents by large margins . He played as good as he could but he was...

Injured Reserve

For those of you who did not know , I injured my shoulder several weeks ago . Due to my injury (and all of the doctors appointments) I just have not had the time to blog . It also hurts to a disabling point sometimes , but not on a consistant basis . Please [...]

Tough Game , Great Win

From the beginning of the pre-game show (and even before) we were all thinking the same thing . This is going to be one tough game . For those of you who did not or do not know why this is so , I will explain . The Sharks have lots of talent on their team [...]

And The Frustrations Continue

We played a frustrating game against the Canucks for our shooting players . Then the next night (and after travelling) we had the same frustrations with the Wild . We must figure out how to beat goalies a little more often than we have . I know that we won our last game but we [...]

Finally A Win At Home

FINALLY ! I was beginning to wonder who was supposed to play better in Our arena , us or our opponents . We have not done well very often in our own home . I am very happy about beating the Canucks . It is not that they are the greatest team out there , but it [...]

One Of The Worst Ways To Lose A Game

Ralph Strangis said it best when he said , ” Horrendous way to lose the game ” . I have to totally agree . In case you missed the game live or on a broadcast , the game went into overtime and the Flames (remember that the “F” is silent) scored as soon as they had [...]

Ott Suspended Again But We Still Win….Barely

As you know , Steve Ott was again suspended for a hit . The hit he was suspended for was just a normal hip check . Unfortunately , Artyukin just decided to jump when he saw Ott coming in on him . That was what really made him land on his neck and made it [...]
