The boys lost to Dallas pretty bad, so what did they do for the home crowd on Monday? The beat the Oilers 6-1. And who lead the charge Monday night? Lombo! He had two goals and three assists. He had a five point game! Wowzers Lombo! Way to go!
And Pru? He got in a fight. Yes, my lil Prukins got in a fight. He looked pissed. It was only Mike Comrie but still, Prucha is a lover not a fighter.
JP was back. They talked to him before the game started. How I have missed that French-Canadian. And he was back to his usual self, hitting anyone that moved and trying to make the play. Unfortunately the injury bug got him. He just can’t seem to catch a break.
Overall it was a really great game and showed just how our guys can bounce back from a tough loss.
****************
Then we traveled to Minnesota. This was a big one. Could we win all four games again them this season? Of course we can! Was there ever any doubt? Ok, maybe just a little when Minnesota scored that first goal…
But then who came alive? Lombo! He is apparently on a mission to score all the Upbo points by himself. He feels the need to avenge Uppy’s injury.
I still can’t believe we swept Minnesota. Do you even know how amazing that feels? I was so proud of my boys!
It would have been better had I been able to see the game. I was depending on twitter. It was on tape delay, to be aired at 10:30. Umm, some of us have to work in the morning. And what did FS-AZ have on it last night? Some dude playing a guitar. Yaaaaaah, could have played the Yotes instead!
****************
It’s been finalized. The Coyotes will open the season in Czech. Two preseason games and one regular season game. I never had an opinion on these games before but now that they involve my team, I’m not sure I like the idea. You need to grow the fan base in Phoenix, not in Czech. I will miss three games now because they will be playing in Europe? I don’t think I like this.
****************
I also learned that I will not be able to get season tickets again next year. This makes me incredibly sad. I really miss having my own season tickets. Oh well, hopefully I get to make it to a few select games next season.
****************
Friday night the Coyotes will be in Colorado. But it’s also the opening ceremonies for the Olympics. Decisions. Decisions. I will probably end up watching the Coyotes. That is if it is on tv and not on tape delay.
****************
I am not sure if I will get any updates done during the Olympic break. The parents will be in town and I will be working on the Olympic Hockey Blog. I highly recommend you check out that page for all your Olympic coverage needs! I would say I have some items in the pipeline for the Olympic break but I really don’t. I have a ton of ideas but I am saving them for the off-season. I will need lots of material for the off-season!
