Einstein once said that creativity is everything I don’t know if he had an opinion or what he said about floor hockey feistiness, “Oh it was a bit Feisty out there tonight for some reason, maybe guys are thinking the NHL is looking for some guys for the playoffs”, stated Sunny.
Just a reminder for next year, “PLAY THE BALL” !!!
Last night of hockey was melancholy as it was Lovie’s last day with the Tomcats, players cleaned out their lockers and said their good byes. There is no team trip to Vegas…..4 guys are going to Kentucky at the end of April to Golf. The Tomcat golf tournament is when some will see each other. “It’s tough saying good bye to such a great guy”, stated Sunny, “Lovie will be missed”, Sunny added.
Everyone seemed to like the ‘end of the season’ gift, “I’m not sure if we had so many guys out because it was the last night of hockey, because the weather was a bit cool or if it was because we handed out a gift to everyone on the last night, If it’s the gift, then maybe we should do a gift every Tuesday night” stated Rocky.
La Bamba, although not able to play, came out for a beer and a dog, really there is not better Tomcat Spirit then that! Hot Dog night, proved to be a success thanks to the Rake for doing that for the Tomcats, he purchased the dogs and made the cheesy party potatoes. Doc contributed with mustard, ketchup, onions and relish. Ogie came in with bags of chips.
Speaking of Ogie he made an appearance as a call up and showed he has the legs and brains to play with the Tomcats.
Future Tomcat searches stage for his dad…
Uncle Turk says “have a beer”, Sparky the dad says …”he is a rye drinker”.
Uncle Stevo says “I’ll start negotiations this summer with Young Luca ….we hope the negotiations go well …looking at a 6 year …30 million deal “.
Razor has been fined a case of beer to be paid on the first night of hockey next year, as he dug into the cooler and grabbeda beer while the final buzzard had not rung.
Shack never called in to say he was not playing, so Shack has been fined a 6 pack to be paid on the first night of hockey when he plays. Special thanks to my fellow journalist Chase de Possie for covering for me and writing some excellent blogs.
Lovie was the last Tomcat to walk out of the Kapusta Kow on the last night of hockey…Good Bye Lovie!
Stevo looks up to the UFO as they come to take Lovie away as he exits the Kapusta Kow …
