Hockey Playoffs – Game 6

March 14, 2010

Well we suffered the first setback during the playoffs today – a 3-3 tie.

Leading 3-1 in the third, the Canadians scored 2 goals with less than 2 minutes left.

I don’t know what was going on today? They didn’t look like the same team that haven’t lost a game in over 2 months. Even though it wasn’t a loss, the way they played and they way the lead was blown, it felt like a loss.

On the bright side, Jordan played an excellent game in nets, and overall the defence played well. It was the forwards who seemed sluggish.

Looking forward, I don’t think they like the feeling, and I feel they will play much better next game. It also guaranteed they’ll be playing for the championship next weekend.

I’ve Been Real Bad

For the past 6 months I’ve been eating real bad and not going to the gym. On average once a week. The only regular exercise I’ve been doing is hockey once a week.

I’m feeling guilty right now. I’ve gained almost 20 pounds, and not the weight I want to gain.

No matter what time I work, I’ll be waking up early and doing 30 minutes of cardio, and my regular workouts during the day.

I was thinking of doing Rippetoe’s 3×5 for 2 months, but I’m doing a push/pull with mostly compound moves.

I had my last bad meal today, no cheating for the next 4 months.

Vancouver Paralympics

I don’t know about you, but I’ve been having a little bit of Winter Olympics withdrawal.

The Paralympics started on Friday and earlier today Canada played Italy in Ice Sledge Hockey. I must say I was in awe of these athletes. The speed, the shooting. Okay it’s not the Canadian men, but I was so impressed, I watched the whole game and was thoroughly entertained.

They play sweden tomorrow, but I’m at work and won’t be able to watch. I’ll definately be watching these games every chance I get.

Canada is going for a three-peat in Hockey. Women’s and Men’s Olympic gold, both victories against the USA. Now Ice Sledge Hockey.

Earlier this week Environment Canada said winter in Ontario is over.

Normally I would wait till April 01 to remove the winter tires, but they came off today.

Also got an AEM Cold Air Intake installed.

I think I’m done with the mods for now. The next thing will be probably be an exhaust, when needed.

If muscles were made from chips and beer, we’d look huge. But they aren’t, and we don’t—unless you count that sack o’ fat up front and dead center.

I know I’ve been posting allot of personal posts lately. Where I usually post fitness and food related things.

I’ve always wanted to post things like this but never really did. My original goal was to make this a “fitness” blog and will get back to that.

Halak or Price? Again.

I went to bed last night. The Leafs had already lost and the Habs were down 3-0. Price allowed all three goals in the first. Halak started the second.

I woke up this morning, like every morning, and put on Sportsdesk. To my surprise, the Habs won 4-3 in a shootout. Brian Gionta and Andrei Markov scored in the final 1:50 of regulation, and Tomas Plekanec added the shootout winner.

There’s 10 games left in March, I predict Halak will start 9. I know my predictions are always wrong. That’s why I don’t play Pro•Line.

Hockey Playoffs – Game 5

We are now 5-0 in the playoffs. Today was a big 4-1 win. The game was not as close as the score, as their goalie made big save after save.

Going into the third period, the score was 2-1. I have to admit I was getting nervous. But two quick goals and we had a bit of breathing room. From there the boys just shut them down.

3 more games left.

Is This Gisele’s Last Soccer Game?

Gisele had her final indoor soccer game today. After she finished, I asked her if she wants to play summer soccer. She told me no, she wants to play hockey.

I actually don’t have a problem with it, except her mother would never go for it. I had enough of a hard time getting Jacob playing. She also doesn’t know how to skate very well. I know she’ll get better if she plays. But in the mean time, it will be very hard.

So I’m Wrong

The second game since the 2010 Olympics, and Price is starting again.

A buddy at work, who is also a Habs fan, made some good points. He told me that Price would start. His reasons – Halak did have a great Olympics, but he’s probably tired. Price hasn’t played any hockey, and will need to play, and will continue to play if he plays good.

He played a good game against Boston. The second period against San Jose just ended, and so far Price is playing a great game.

He also feels that Price will be traded in the off season. He prefers Halak over Price. I don’t, I still think he’s the future.

Yes I’m watching the game, just came in from watching “The Crazies“.
