Hockey Playoffs are here!

This weekend the ECHL playoffs start and I am so stoked for them. Right now the Idaho Steelheads are the second seed and seem to be streaking at the right time. I am not going to say that it feels like the 06-07 season but I can feel something. The Steelheads start the playoffs with home ice playing the Victoria Salmon Kings. This is going to be a great series and I am really excited to get it started.






Last weekend we went to a game on Friday night against the Phoenix Road Runners and there happened to be a fight which is not unusual with these two teams.
The fight got finished and the refs put the two players in the penalty boxes. A fan threw some beer on the player from Phoenix which didn't make him to happy and he tried to come over the glass. We have never seen this before but it was pretty cool. They kicked the player out of the game and escorted the fan out of the stadium.

awesome, awesome pictures. Way cool. Who knew that we'd love hockey so much? If my Mom is reading this- Mom, I swear hockey isn't as violent as it looks, fights happen rarely and the guy climbing over the penalty box is totally a fluke deal. Don't worry. : )

Nice putting the steelheads intro song 2nd on your playlist too.
