Around SBN: Transfer Rumor: Bolton On Verge of First Signings

A quick video I took just before taking on The Avs Guild at Pepsi Center last night. I'm sad to report that both Andy and I gave up 4 goals in a losing effort last night. Final score MHH 3 - The Avs Guild 4. It was a great time and I can't wait to do it again next year as it looks like this is going to become an annual event. Pictures to follow soon. If you were in attendance last night and have pictures, feel free to email them to me and/or post them in a FanPost.

Rematch next year. I’ll seriously fly out from LA to play.

Maybe me and Derek can platoon in net next year? And by platoon I mean both play at the same time.

If we don't get our sauce, we ain't watching the game!

THANKS, MILE HIGH HOCKEY =)

Wrote a post to thank everyone. What a game! Loved having a chance to coach the MHH crew – what a group of teammates. Very awesome sportsmanship. Straight from the Avalanche (Jake) – they want us doing this again next year. It’s on for sure. Thanks again and enjoy the few photos I snapped. We had Alex Cooper (A_Coop on Twitter) there taking photos so she will have a gallery up shortly and I’ll tweet it out.

Derek was a beast in the net. Both goalies were.

sounds like a lot of fun. I definitely think we should do it again next year. Preferably a date a little further into the season…

Dario was sportin’ some socks just for you!! I’m sure he’ll tell you all about it…

Yep, my socks were officially sponsored David Driscoll-Carignan. Hopefully a picture or two will pop up.

They really kept a tight schedule for the game. We had to get on the ice and right off. No reenacting Tangauy’s game 7 goal or anything!

That would be my sister. Her Women’s league team is the Sharks colors, and teamnamed the Flames. (I always cheer against my sister)

Your mama so ugly they call her "The Avs Powerplay"

Definitely

And we will try to make it happen on a Friday or Saturday as well. The fact we were able to pull this thing off in basically three weeks is a testament to the troops’ support!! Thanks for agreeing to host this game. Next year we definitely need a trophy, a name for the game and jerseys.

Thank YOU!! God, what a blast. Can’t wait to do it again. Do we really have to wait a whole year????

Bitch, give me your lunch money.

Derek really was a beast. Some of those glove saves were…WOW. Just…WOW. And he seriously bailed us out more than a few times. He was harnessing the Power of Andy.

Bitch, give me your lunch money.

by Cheryl Bradley on Oct 22, 2010 12:28 PM MDT reply actions  

Yeah, Derek had an open net glove save that was top tier stuff.

by Dario on Oct 22, 2010 1:47 PM MDT up reply actions  

Beachie was a monster in D. She was out there roughing up guys twice her size! I was glad she was on our side. She really helped keep us in the game. Great job Beachie!

lol. Well, if I can’t handle the puck and I can’t skate well enough to keep up with anyone, at least I can bruise some dudes up. Besides, every team needs a goon. =)

Maybe Derek stole too much of Andy’s mojo ;)

I'd rather be SOBER than a redwings fan.

That’s it. I blame Derek.

Awesome!

That was awesome! The Pepsi Center crew was super nice, the Avs Guild crew were a blast and the MHH crew was superb and hard working! My family came out and said they had a great time watching the game. I cannot wait for the next game!!! I should be able to sell more tickets next time too. My family said if there’s a next time they wanted to bring more people since it was so much fun. My friends also expressed interest in buying tickets for our next game as well!!

Cannot wait!!!! :)

For those that don’t know, Smoky scored a nice goal too.

I thought it was pretty Osgood to take a Bertuzzi behind the Draper, but it ended up blowing the Abdelkader of my Kronwall.

by chiavsfan on Oct 22, 2010 5:56 PM MDT up reply actions  

And thanks too all of you other players! Twas a blast.

Next time I’ll be in peak physical condition. My dedication to helping this team win is paramount!

Does anyone mind if I post some photos up? Anyone not want to be seen, including some of the people I hung out with before/during the game in the stands?

Thanks Joe...
