My Crease

More Coming Soon!

This is my own little corner.  You'll  find my miscellaneous ramblings, and anything else that I wanted to put in but couldn't find a home for.  Here I've also got news, updates, and other "latest-and-greatests."

My Thoughts

April 24, 2001
 
  I've been rushing to try to get my entire page up.  I apologize if it still looks incomplete in areas.  It is!  Not for too much longer, though. Please bear with me!  School takes up most of my spare time, leaving little left over to toy with my "fun site." 
    Hockey season is over, both for me and for my NHL team, the Red Wings.  My team was knocked out of the playoffs in the second round, after a great season-end run.  We were riding an 8 game winning streak, the longest in the league.  Unfortunately, between the first round playoff game and the second, I injured my knee scrimmaging with the class I teach.  Though I thought I'd recovered enough to play OK, I quickly found I couldn't stop much, and by the game's end I knew full well I shouldn't have been out there.  We ended up losing 7-2, but that's probably just as well.  That way I won't be tempted to play again too soon. :P  My Red Wings followed suit, dropping four games in a row to the Kings after going up 2-0 in the series.  I guess the same goes for them, though: Yzerman was out with a leg problem, Shanahan with a broken foot, Chelios (though he returned) was not 100% with a thumb injury, etc.  Now they'll have a long summer to rest up and recover.  It might take that long for their pride to recover after being rubbed out by the L.A. Kings in the first round!  Ah, well, I love 'em anyway.
