G's special day
Although he wasnt quite as lucky as JJ, he still made out like a bandit!
We went early again in hopes of a fan of the game chance, and to watch warm ups, and it was sold out and I dont like fighting crowds.
We stopped a couple booths outside and G got to take some shots at a radio booth that had a net set up. I guess the practice in the hall is paying off, he scored a couple times with a big stick and puck on concrete! Won a hat and a sucker. he liked the sucker best, but the hat is a good fit, no bumps!
Well we have decided to retire the autographed jersey for now, so we also needed a new kids jersey. First order of business is the jersey, so I hooked G up with one like mine this time. With beads, hat, pom pom, we explore the arena. Found a face paint booth, no luck talking him into it though.
We pick up a stick and ball combo at the den, so now he can play goalie like CUJO. I'm not sure how Cujo became his favorites but he is sold. We head down to the the glass to watch warmups, this time from the Coyotes end. This time with a camera as well, a real camera. Some good action shots, the speed is crazy.
One of the players flips a puck to us! It hits the net right over my head and I catch it on the glass. G is beaming! A great PIC! So now we have a game and practice back in back to back games!
After warm ups we head back to our seats. The crowd is filtering in, unfortunately the color of red that is coming in is just a shade to bright. The sold out arena is due inlarge part to Wing nuts everywhere. Thats ok though the excitement of a sell out should be great. The wings jump all over the yotes early2-0 in 3 minutes, looks like its going to be a long night. The yotes score a couple quick ones before the end of the first, bringing it back to 3-2. Could be a good game after all.
That changed in teh 2nd, with 6 penalties, 4 Red Wing goals its getting ugly. Cujo is playing mad, slashing at guys when they get close. 2 penalties on him in 3 minutes. Oh well maybe next time...the Red Wing fans are sure enjoying it.

FAN OF THE GAME!!
Not me but my adorable JJ!!!
We went to the Coyotes game last night and she was the luckiest girl there!!
First we showed up at the opening of the gates so we could explore for a hour and a half before face off. Well that was a great move! We watched the zamboni from the front row as it cleaned the ice before warm ups. We left to walk around some more and the 2 of the pack stopped us and asked if she would like to participate in an event. "Of Course!!"
So they gave us directions to the Fan of the Game Competetion. We thought we would check out how to get there, so we scouted the location. Just as the warm ups were beginning. It was on the Stars side for warmups but still fun. The Stars goalie kept messing with us...slamming the glass with his stick as he would sakte by...he flipped a puck our way but it bounced back from the net.
But as warmups were winding down one of the NHL officials called JJ over and gave her an official game puck.
After warmups we headed back to watch the game from our seats and it was a great game for a Coyotes fan, Cujo was solid, Doan scored on a one on one, there was at least 6-7 fight, and they lead as we left to find the fan of the game.
We showed up and watched a couple minutes from the corner, then they escorted us down stairs. The guts of the arena, and into the zamboni tunnel, where we watched from ice level. A great perspective, so much faster, the guys are bigger.
After a coupe of breaks the contest begins. All but one of the competitions have been 2 adults and one kid...and the kids have won by landslides. JJ is beaming, and walks away with the title.
We get to watch the rest of the game from the tunnel. JJ gets to dance with the Pack, and Howler. We are on the jumbo tron at every break! IT WAS AWESOME!
AFter the game we are escorted right outside the locker room to mee a player. A minute later Derek Morris emerges. Hes been hurt for awhile so I'm sure he was dressed already. Very nice guy, talked to JJ and me for a couple minutes, signed her jersey and puck. Then we were taken to the team meet and greet area.
After a few minutes the Stars started to pass by and head to their bus. The guys al seem so much smaller, and hard to recognize out of the jersey. All the pads and skate height makes a huge impression.
Then the coyotes start coming out, and everyone stops and asks if we liked the game, had fun etc. Derek Morris, Mike Comrie, Mike Ricci, Oleg Saprykin, Jamie Lundmark, Denis Gauthier, Cujo, and NASH all stopped. They signed JJs jersey and my program. Except Nash signed my Nash jersey!
Luckily I had my new phone, so I got some decent pics, but I wish I had Mist's!!
Its now alomst 11, and they ended the session and showed us the way out. Good timing as JJ does have school. Im sure she is wiped out...but Im sure she wont complain either.
