Thanks, Gary! It was an awesome game. Canton, being in the farthest stretches of Northern New York in the middle of hockey country, is a tough bunch of girls to beat. They scored their two goals early in the first period and then we kept them from scoring the rest of the game. Our goalie robbed Canton blind on a few goals that really should have gone in. Then, on the power play, our goalie pulled, it would have been great to tie it up and go into overtime, but it didn't happen. It was more fun to watch than a Sabres game!! Maybe someday soon my daughter will be able to play in a game. The coach told her she could go out for a quick shift if she wanted to, but she said no, she's content with holding the door for now.
That's my timid girl. I can't tell you how this has helped her with her anxiety problems. She still has them, but the exercise from practice has really given her a boost she desperately needed...and she's even dropped a pants size!! Hockey...along with all sports....isn't just about being a great athlete...
Speaking of the Sabres...TWO WINS IN A ROW!! Let's see if we can make it three tonight and put our losing streak far behind us.
YES!!! Now, the Sharks need to pummel Ovechkin & Semin and their crew tonight (Caps), we need to beat Nashville Preds tomorrow so we can pass the Caps for the #1 spot in the Southeast.
