Description:
Never followed hockey or even knew it was a pro sport to be honest, then I met my husband, we watched one game on ESPN (back when they showed games) then he took me to see Sabres play Coyotes in Phoenix in 97/98 season and it was official, hooked on hockey. I grew up in the land of football and Nascar, um the NW near Seattle. I’ve been following for about 10yrs now, obsessively the last 3 seasons or so. We’ve had season tickets at HSBC for 2 years, just signed on for year 3. I will miss this year what was becoming our yearly tradition of following the Sabres 1st round out of town. Next year! So there is my history with hockey. Oh nearly forgot, I used to work at RBC in Raliegh but I just never took to the Hurricanes. Yes I have lived in many many places… I just want to mention how much I love the history, nobility and well excitment of hockey AND how much I love my adopted hometown of Buffalo. Go Sabres! Well… it’s the 2008 playoffs so… Go Caps and Sharks! Further note, it’s May 5th. The Capitals and Sharks are now out of the playoffs. Sigh… next season we will be following the Capitals along with our Sabres and hopefully getting down to DC to some games. We sorta fell in love with them this year. Having a great time watching them all play at the Worlds. Soupy come home!!

Well ..
Last night was not the Sharks finest hour. Brian had a bad night as did the whole first line. And the refs. didn’t help. I really hate losing the game winning goal to an ex-Shark. Dang Nolan anyway. Cheers!
