Welcome To The Weekend!

Seems like a fitting blog hop for hockey fans.

Seriously - some of ya'll are just plain CRAZY!

Just sayin'...

So today the boys are going to put it down in Detroit and hopefully get a W heading back home for Monday's game 3. Here's a round-up of some informative articles from around the web regarding the Coyotes playoff run, the ownership situation and anything else I felt was relevant...

Once again, the WhiteOut is back at Jobing.com Arena. The Coyotes are encouraging fans to wear white to home games to support the team. Individual game tickets for the Coyotes home games during the first round of the 2011 Stanley Cup Playoffs are now on sale!

Last Regular Season Home Game Tonight!

Well tonight is the last home game of the regular season. The boys haven't been able to clinch that playoff spot yet - but it could happen tonight. I hope to see a full house tonight - they deserve it!

Here's to another one of these...

Which leads me to ask this - how do you feel about the WhiteOut tradition Coyotes fans?

Personally - I think we need a new tradition once we get a new owner in place (I'm remaining optimistic - despite the lack of news as of late). The WhiteOut was Winnipeg's thing - we need our own thing.

Bring on the SandStorm!

Playoffs!

Aren't they beautiful???

Now that the Coyotes have clinched their spot in the post-season, we can safely discuss the "P-word". Playoffs. 

WE'RE GOING TO THE FRIGGIN' PLAYOFFS! 

Though I think we should have something other than a WhiteOut in the desert, I'm going to enjoy it anyway. Why? Because my entire Coyotes Fandom career has been in the bad years. We've been losers the whole time. Now we're winners. Yes, I'm going to enjoy this immensely. 

See those tickets pictured above? Had it not been for my amazing hockey family, I wouldn't have those tickets. They got the money together and bought them for me. So why do we want to save hockey in the desert, people? Because not only is it an amazing sport, the people I've met while attending said sport are nothing short of amazing themselves. I have no idea where I'd be without them.
