So, the mighty Phoenix are just 3 points away from the first (meaningful) piece of silverware in the clubs existence. Am I excited by this prospect? You bet your arse I am! Its been a fucking long time since a Manchester team won a trophy, and dammit, I want this one! Going to the play offs will be even more fun than usual with a trophy to brag about.
Other than that....
It was awesome to see Harabin back out on the ice this past Sunday. We've certainly missed his strenghth and calmness at the back this past couple of months. Flipside to that ray of sunshine is Duggan screwing his shoulder up. I really feel for the poor lad. Of all the times in the season to have an injury like this, right before the play-offs is not the one!
And the first line. What can I say except...fucking WOW! 333 points (at the time of writing) in the league between them, and all 3 men over 100 individually. This has truly been a record setting season. Howe the fuck we will follow this one next year is beyond me. Seriously. How the hell do you replace even 1 player who can do 100 points for you Because make no mistake, if Kristofferson stays in the UK expect the EIHL and its money to come a callin' for the Scandinavian goal machine.
Other than that its been a weird 4 weeks, with me being off the booze on Docs orders... First time in over 10 years I've watched games without having at least 1 pint. But rest assured, after last season herculean efforts at the bar (£150+) in Coventry, I will be having a few over that weekend, so consider yourself warned.
