Tailing the Komets

Fantastic game tonight

It's 0-0 after two periods, but man, has there been plenty of action. Both goaltenders have been amazing.

Rockford's Jesse Bennefield received a slashing major and a game misconduct, and the Komets' Mario Larocque recieved an instigation penalty for retaliating. UHL President Richard Brosal is in attendance tonight and the league is going to review whether the instigation penalty was the proper call since Larocque could argue that he was simply defending himself from the slash. I'll let you know what I hear.

Another highlight was a beautiful hip check by Mike Dombkiewicz. Haven't seen one of those lately and it was perfectly executed.

Great game to watch so far.

No problem Hit, and by the way scoops isn't really a bad guy, as all of his friends like to say, people think he's a jerk until you get to know him. It's just a dry sense of humor and people don't know how to take him. All we all want is to have fun and see the K's kick some tail. Let's get the Cup this year!

Sorry Scoops, had to let the cat out of the bag that you're really not a bad guy!

Jonathon Goodwin has impressed me bigtime this season. He is having a great season with scoring, defensive play, and hustle. I love watching him play. I think the hustle has been there for all the guys. Hukalo has played big too. He takes the body, skates hard, and makes big plays. These guys are turning into my favorites.

I have been impressed for two years now with Goodwin, last year especially I thought he finished his checks better than anyone and he hasn't let up any this year.

Hukalo more and more has been impressing me. I've been waiting for him to break through into the scoring column more often. He has some unbelievable skating skills, just hasn't quite been able to finish.

This team is a joy to watch most of the time. And I only say most of the time, because no team can play at the highest level all the time.

I guess that's it for the night. Time to shut it down.

Lets see.... At the beginning of the year I was a major opponent of Kiyaga on the blue line. Thought he was more suited to be a forward; but the guy has improved every week and his ice time during critical times in the games of late has proved it... I really like this team from top to bottom and I dont believe I envy the coach and the tough decisions he has to make regarding the lineup each game...

On a different note, maybe the guys playing this game as a profession have lost contact with those who dont play but still have that deep passion for their team and thier favorite sport. And I will e-mail you with all my personal information and if you want to pass it along to the players so be it... in fact I would encourage it. I have not said one thing that I am ashamed of, and if they want to talk sometime after a game or during the week, I'm all for it. Maybe they think our passion for this team and our opinions are a joke; but I dont think so.
