My Little Devils

On the weekends that the Lakers are out of town, we've been watching the Sault Blue Devils high school team play hockey to pass the time. It's really a lot of fun, especially for the kids who get to interact with thier freinds from school. We like hockey at the Pullar anyway, so this is a good chance for us to get out and have some more fun. At Saturday's game, they were selling used jerseys for only $1, so the the kids each got one (even Brian) to wear to the games. Pictured are Lily and Brian doing the 'chuck-a-puck' during the second intermission.

Vikings In The Soo

Kind of weird that my old high school's hockey team, the Cadillac Vikings, got to play a playoff game in the Soo here, but the kids and I were up for a game. Lily and Trevor didn't get into it as much, as it wasn't one of their teams, but I had a pretty sore throat after the game. Unfortunately for the Vikings, they beat Sault High earlier in the week to eliminate them. The officials of this game really took it out on them in their game against Calumet. Cadillac lost 4-1, but it should have been a better hockey game than that. Calumet's third goal came when they basically tackled the Cadillac goalie and slid the puck into the net. Their fourth goal came when Cadillac was short-handed, again. I really felt bad for them and that they deserved a better fate.
