By junior on December 7, 2009, at 11:23 pm I know, I know, I just took the trouble yesterday to tell you I probably won’ t be blogging for a little bit, and now here I am. What can I tell you, I’m in a good mood after the Leafs shellacked the Atlanta Thrashers tonight. Positively giddy because of a five-goal second period outburst, […]
By junior on May 25, 2009, at 1:15 am 2009 Memorial Cup Champions – Mickey Renaud's Jersey Front & Centre
It had no effect on the players, of course. It couldn’t have – most of the guys wearing Spitfire sweaters today weren’t even born when it happened, so how could it have any effect on them? Nonsense. It did, though, have an effect […]
By junior on May 24, 2009, at 4:29 pm Go Spits Go, One More Time This Year!
I will be watching on a slight tape delay for much of the first part of the game – yard chores kept me a little bit later than I thought today – so don’t nobody call me on the phone and be giving me updates about […]

Go Spits Go!!! I believe!
First period: Two early chances for Taylor Hall, then a frantic series in the Windsor zone at about the 3 minute mark in which Engelage is down and out and Adam Henrique collapses to the front of his goal (I think) and makes a terrific block […]

First period: The best early scoring chance went to Rimouski; Spitfires goaltender Andrew Engelage stood tall on a long two on one and made an excellent save with his right arm on a quick wrist shot. There was another amusing moment when Windsor’s Adam Henrique finished his […]
By junior on May 19, 2009, at 10:28 pm Go Spits Go!! I still believe…!!
This tournament owes us one, dammit. I still believe.
After dropping round robin games to Drummondville and Rimouski to kick off the tournament, the Spitfires faced off tonight against a Kelowna Rockets team that had already clinched a berth in the Tournament Final on Sunday. Whereas the Spits […]
By junior on May 17, 2009, at 5:13 pm NB: I booted up the computer and sat transfixed during the first six minutes or so of this game. The action was back and forth like crazy to begin with. The first couple of paragraphs are a summary of what happened to that point; thereafter, the time-denoted comments came as the game unfolded.
First period:

GO SPITS GO!!!
Game 5 is about to get underway – I can’t decide whether to listen live or to save the recording I’m making and listen later. I am very nervous, but excited. C’mon boys, git ‘er done!
