January 13 is Hockey Day in Canada. Though not a holiday as such, it is a day to celebrate our most popular sport. Not national sport mind as that is Lacrosse. This year the day long telecast on CBC eminates from Nelson BC. Nelson is excited as is the whole region. Hockey is big here and has an amazing history as Trail managed to send teams to the World Championships and win in 1949 and 1961.

The 6 Canadian teams in the NHL all have been scheduled to play and each game will be televised.

So my fellow Canucklestanians ... how will you celebrate ... drum roll ...the institution that makes us glad to be Canadian ...... Hockey Day in Canada !!! ????  Inlove

 Bigok  On that note, have you been watching "Road Hockey Rumble" on OLN? last night was Trail vs Fruitville, what a hoot, although I think it was fixed as Trail has never lost to Fruitville before. Only bad part was that most guys I know where not playing but where the old guys standing around giving and advice Lol

Everyday is Hockey Day in Canada. Friday January 5th did it for me. Shinny in the morning then to the bar that sponsors my men's league to watch the juniors(  Bigok ) brief rest and then out for a pick-up game at venerable George Bell Arena. Home for a late dinner.

Sid The Kid. Bigok

 In order to see a  game  with two NHL teams in person I'm looking at arranging a charter bus trip to Pittsburgh( think Sid, Staal, Malkin...) to see Atlanta ( think Kovalchuk, Kozlov Hossa..... ) March 24th. Mostly with guys I play hockey with but all maniacs welcome. Hotel bus and good ticket for about $260.00, hardly more than cabfare and ticket to the ACC.  Razz If interested PM.

Right On!!!

If my daughter and son weren't both away at University we would play some outdoor shinny then have some brown pops ( or more likely green ) in honour of the 100,000 kms or so we spent together in the car during their minor hockey days.Now if they would make it a national holiday perhaps they could come home for a long week-end Wink
