Random Hockey Musings
Yesterday, I got a text from Joshu to let me know that Peter Forsberg had been traded to the Nashville Predators. I know that you are all shocked, “What? Nashville has a ice hockey team?” Well, not only do they have a hockey team, they now have a good chance to win the Stanley Cup. It’s a sad state of affairs for “Canada’s game” when the champion for the past two years were Tampa Bay and Carolina and this year may be Nashville.
Though, I’m not predicting a Nashville win; you know how good I’ve been recently predicting sports outcomes. :-)
I’ve been a fan of Peter the Great since he used to be play for the Colorado Avalanche. I even had a poster of him hanging up in my room growing up; that poster is still up in my apartment now. Which reminds me of the Avs game I went to with my Crissy and my sisters around Christmas. Crissy saw Joe Sakic on the ice and jokingly asked, “Joe Sakic, don’t you have a poster of him still? What are you, like 12 years old?” :-)
And speaking of hockey, I think I need new hockey pants. For some reason they are really loose and have started to fall at inopportune times, even though I haven’t gotten any smaller since I bought them. And the flap that is supposed to protect my stomach falls forward and sticks outs, so it looks like I have an even larger belly under my jersey.
Perhaps it’s time to buy some new gear.
