If it is minus 40 outside it must be a Manitoba game!
Again, we are shivering in our boots in Chicago and again the Manitoba Moosers are in town, yes, they brought there weather with them. How nice of the boys from the north to have packed up a Alberta Clipper along with their gear.
Nice...
Last Wed night the Moose came to the Allstate Arena for one of their bi-seasonal matches against the Wolves. In the West we all miss the Meese, once the Moosers were part of the mighty west's regular schedule and we saw them,often . But like the Griffins of Grand Rapids they were moved to the north and our meetings have taken the form of old family reunions. Fun but kind of like seeing an old relative you don't really like but can't for the life of you remember why. This time both teams struggled for three full frames, finally deadlocked in a 1:1 tie. With just seconds left in OT when the specter of a shoot out loomed large, it happened. Was it a lunar eclipse, no Wolves Captain Darren Haydar passed the puck before the Moose goal through a maze of Moose and Wolves players. Moosie goalie Drew McIntyre then cleared the puck and shot it into the empty net of the Wolves, the Meese had won on the rarest of events, a netties goal!
As we all went into the cold darkness, finally remembering just why we didn't like this rival. They are good, very good, we may be seeing them God willing in May for the playoffs. The weather will be warmer and there are no eclipses scheduled. Still we better look sharp, but at least we know why we don't like this Canadian cousin once again.

The goal of this event is to raise funds for the ADA, as regular readers of my blog know, besides photography, I am a nurse. In my other professional life I see the effects of diabetes on a daily basis on patients and their families. If present trends continue this disease has the potential to bankrupt the public health system and force private insurance out of the reach of many others. Our best hope for a cure and prevention comes through research, often founded by the ADA. So if you are looking for a fun afternoon of hockey, with some great action and a worthy cause, remember March 2nd Oakton Park Arena 2:00 pm. Be there or be square!
