We get free tix randomly from the company my father in law works for but only 2 at a time so the hubby goes with his father or brother. That way they get quality time

But if the Flyers were playing I'd be like . . . screw family time!!!!

Ok, time for me to rant. I pay 30$ a month for all the special sports channels so I can see the Flyers games. Without it I'd never get to see any unless they were playing a canadian team and ever then it's not a sure thing . . . we wanted to watch the Habs/Flyers game at my in laws last night and it wasn't on regular cable so we had to watch it at home.

Now I'm home after a long day at work, I turn on the TV and do I see the Flyers/Pens game? NO!

Guess I don't pay much attention to the East Coast of PA!! I was trying to figure out who some of the Penguins were tonight!! lol

 
I have some sad news to share:

Friends, family and thousands of fans paid their last respects Wednesday to Alexei Cherepanov, the 19-year-old rising hockey star and a first-round draft pick for the New York Rangers, who died after suffering heart problems during a game outside Moscow. The cause of his death was still under investigation, federal investigators said Wednesday.

Meanwhile, lawmaker Pavel Krasheninnikov, who sits on the Russian Hockey Federation's supervisory council, has accused emergency workers of taking too long to respond to the call. He also complained there was no ambulance on standby for the game and no defibrillator.

The manager and medical staff of Avangard as well as staff at the Vityaz arena, were all questioned where Monday's game was played.

My hope is that better medical equipment and medical staff will be available for all future events.

Hockey Night in Canada has a new theme song - it was unveiled last Saturday with mixed reviews.

The original song was purchased by CTV and will be played during NHL broadcasts on TSN and RDS.

CTV will also air the song as part of its hockey coverage during the 2010 Olympic winter games.
