When the NHL had to postpone the January 1st Winter Classic due to COVID, they decided to move the game to February 20th. Why you might ask? They realized the Tomcats would be playing their Winter Classic game that morning, and the NHL wanted to take advantage of the captive hockey audience already preparing for a great day of hockey. Very smart people over there at the NHL!
The Tomcat Winter Classic did not disappoint. Thanks to May Day, Chevy and Labamba for finding a great venue, and for preparing the surface ahead of the event. Labamba came up with a Tomcat version of the Zamboni to help smooth out some rough patches in the natural ice. We now will call him Zambamba! Despite these best efforts, the occasional ice crevasse would send a Tomcat or two tumbling, resulting in a good laugh by all. PS – No Tomcats were injured during the making of the Winter Classic. We were also introduced to the son of Junior…Jr. Junior. Jr. Junior was definitely a planted ringer by the wiley ole’ Junior. The rest of the Tomcats all wished we had the energy and stamina of the young Junior…Tomcats are reportedly in talks for a Rookie contract for the young man.
In the end, the score did not matter…what mattered was a great time was had by all. Everyone headed back to Zambamba’s for some driveway beers afterwards. A very fine February Saturday for the Tomcats…the finest February Saturday that was not an official Tomcat Tournament!
Meet The Tomcats By Harry Ballsonue
I hope everyone is enjoying the true true interview of the Tomcats. These are all legit answers and are not made up.
Meet The Falcon
avourite professional golfer Payne Stewart. PGA’s best dressed golfer. Tragedy pure and simple Favourite golf ball Everyone will probably say Pro v1 but i have to go with the Noodle. I can always keep my eye on my noodle Favourite hockey player growing up I can say just one. Will have to break it down into two time frames. When i was a wee lad i loved Mike Palmateer (even though he was a leaf). When i finally matured to a real hockey team i grew into #24 Robert Alan Probert from the Detroit Red Wings. He was a great role model for me growing up Favourite Hockey player now This is a tough one. Lots if great players but none really stand out to me. If i had to say one that i enjoy watching it would have to be Connor McDavidr. The stuff he can do with the puck is incredible. Fave movie Im a big nerd and I am proud of that. I have to go with two series not movies. The entire Marvel cinematic universe and the Star wars saga. I can watch any of those movies any time of the day. Needless to say, this past year of the vid and working from home, ive watched every movie in order multiple multiple times. Favourite band Easy one. Van Halen including Van Hagar. Can listen to those songs all day. They are listed as my favourites with Alexa when im working around the house. Your highlight in high school A couple that stand out being it was so long ago and both include Rocky. Wouldn’t say they were good highlights 1. Getting a rushing touchdown and Rocky was my blocker (that was a backwards day) 2. Me being a cock blocker for Rocky on prom night. My car broke down with my date and we were stuck in their hotel room until I could get it started. Roxy was being nice until she politely asked me leave so she and Rocky could be alone If you could do one thing for the Windsor Tomcats what would you do If i won the lottery i would make the dream come alive with our own arena and attached condos for tomcats in need to live or just sleep it off Your favourite Tomcat Unfair question. I love every tomcats the same. I might hate a couple while they slash me or deak me out of my underwear but back on the stage i forget all that.
