Shouts to the Northeast!!

Lots of folks stopping by from the Northeast States and SE Canada. Welcome! Leave me a note and say hello...us girl hockey players gotta network ya know!

Thanks for visiting.

Weekend Update...

Couldn't help using that title now that SNL is all super popular again. Anyway, I played in Medford Satuday morning and got 6 goals and 2 assists. Yeah, goalie problems are definitely an issue in the Summits house league, but hey....I still had more points than anyone else in the game. Does that count for something?

Next weekend, in addition to the Summits House game, I will have my first 2 Portland Storm games. They will be against Portland Jr. Hawks Boys teams. I REALLY want to beat the boys!!!

2 weeks to the NW Selects Burnaby Tourney....aaawww, yeah!

NW Girls Hockey Rocks!

My Portland team, the Portland Storm, may go to a tournament this February in Salmon, Idaho. We'd play on these beautiful outdoor rinks with mountains in the distance, pictured here:



Anyway, that got me looking for girls hockey in Idaho, and I found this great statewide website that details and promotes girls hockey statewide. I wanted to share it, becasue I think it would be cool if girls in every state had a resource, a listing or promotion like this...enjoy!

Idaho Girls and Womens Ice Hockey


P.S. I got the game winner in overtime this weekend in Medford! Good Stuff! I also had a great practice weekend with The Storm in Portland!

Drive for 25!

Results from this weekend...

Well, the first major weekend of hockey has passed, and I'd say my teams were pretty successful. My teams played several games with the San Diego Saints and a team from Seattle. Overall, the stats were like this:

Overall: 3-0-2 with 7 goals and 1 assist

Game 1 : NW Selects vs SD Saints tie 1-1 (1 goal)
Game 2 : NW Selects vs SD Saints tie 2-2 (1 goal)
Game 3 : Portland Storm vs Seattle win 3-1 (2 goals, 1 assist)
Game 4 : Portland Storm vs Seattle win 3-2 (3 goals, first hat trick of the season!)
Game 5 : NW Selects vs SD Saints win 6-1 (1 goal)

It was a great weekend and I had lots of fun hanging out with my teams!

Wow...we're in full swing....

Lost again this weekend here in Medford. We still have mad goalie issues. I care about winning and losing, but I just can't take it too serious when the scores are so bad. My team scored 6 goals...4 of them were mine. I got my bell rung by Ryan towards the end of the game. I was a little starry-eyed there for a while, but I like hitting. What I don't like is when boys hit each other and everyone celebrates and thinks it's awesome and laughs, but when I get hit it demonstrates why girls shouldn't play hockey?!?!? I can take and dish with the best of them all, as evidenced by this weekend. The boys need to get over themselves, stop trying to play crash-up derby and actually play a little hockey. I'd like to win...for once!

Went to Portland for a power skating clinic this weekend with the Selects. It was a lot of fun. It was directed by a figure skating coach, so we had a pretty good time razzing her and giving her a hard time. I did my best backwards, butt pump figure skating impersonation...it was way good!

I have the opportunity to play in 6 games this weekend, but I probably will only play 4 or 5. The three most important games that I will definitely play in are the NW Selects U14s vs San Diego. This is our first test this season and I am stoked. We are going to play 3 times over next weekend up in Portland. I'll keep you informed.

Drive for 25!
