@Saint Paddy, I'm going to a hockey game tonight featuring the new Saint John Flames team which joined the Beausejour Senior Hockey league this past summer. They are playing out of the Lord Beaverbrook Rink aka the LBR. There have been some wild videos the last couple of seasons in the playoffs, especially out of the Miramichi arena. Should be some extra curricular activities tonight. Mrs. TheM and the oldest son and his family are going as well. Tonight's opponent is the Fredericton Express. Should be fun!
Side note: The SJ goalie is one time (briefly) Hab Keith Kinkaid.
I remember going to see the Miramichi Packers in the 80s. Senior AA hockey, can't remember the league but pretty sure they won the Canadian title that year (87?) Man there were wild games. They had a player who never wore shoulder pads and he fought nearly every game...I think he felt the pads restricted his throwing of punches. Stephen Pettipas also played for the team. He featured regularly in Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling back in the day.
They are now called the Miramichi Northmen. I remember Stephen Pettipas, he may have played for the Saint John Vito's Senior AAA team in the 90s. But not for long, he didn't want to practice or something...
Wow I am ten years older and that make my update my dance card. RIP People who made the NHL are not like the rest of us. We all wanted to do that and mostly failed before opening up the screen that said start here. I could have made the NHL if Babcock was my Pee Wee coach. Just sayinh
KMAXK I adimire and comenstate at youi getting a new job. In in my life I have had at least 20 full time hires, Most long lasting 12 years, I worked in call centers, I scrooged beer cans to pay the mortage. I have done everything possible to survieve in the world I live in. I hope your move was uipward or sideways. All my moves where always described as sideways but they were never 90 degrree moves. Right now I am in paridise, not making a lot of money, Half what I made 20 years ago. However I am a key man and they gave me a car to drive and its from 2014 but its the best car I have every driven on a day to day. I drove a Mazada RX7 through big island Hawaiii and thats something no one will ever do again. Tonite is the night we slip sid the alice in wonderland sleeping beauty potion and he only wakes up when. This is the point that I can not continue, who should kiss him?
Hey Steve - I was let go from a job I hated and it was the best thing that has happened to me in the 3+ years I ensured it. But I found my way back into a role I used to do and always loved. Wasn't easy because I'm over 60 but I'm back now and I figure I have abot a 5 year stretch left before I can pack it in. Thought about and looked at early retirement but it would have been too much of a stretch. The money is less as are the pressures and that'll do me just fine
Farah Fawcet I saw just a couple of days ago. I have the DVD Logans Run. 20 years since I watched this movie and it made me weep. Its one of the few movies I have seen in the last 5 years that did not bore me. In this movie if I had to choose Jenny Agur or Farrah, I might go off the board.

I'll record the Habs game for later.

Funny to see all the cigarette smoke in the locker room during the intermission...
ReplyDeleteMore likely after a game but lots of smoking back then.
DeleteHage with a nice start to the season last night. 2 goals and an assist.

ReplyDeleteBilliards. I haven't played billiards in a very long time. I really enjoy a game of billiards. I would so love to play a rousing game of billiards.
