Going to a bar to watch the PPV game tonight with 2 girl friends from high school. OH YEAH! I didn't even know one of them follows the Canucks, I just invited her since she wanted to go watch a movie with me tonight, but apparently she knows a bit about them.. at least enough to know where they stand in the conference. :D
Also planning to go to Authentix to buy my Canucks t-shirt~ I'm hoping there's one of either Salo or Mitchell, but I doubt they'd be selling their t-shirts. I might have to get Naslund or Ohlund. Ah well. :B
I hope they score 9384923 goals tonight. I hope I did not just jinx them.
Interesting read which I found linked on jordi's blog which basically distinguishes a puckbunny from hockey fans which happens to be girls.
Well, I know I'm a fangirl and not a puckbunny, but somehow in the words "fan" + "girl" usually don't mix together in the context of sports fandom.
But well, I'm a Canucks fan. I liked watching the Canucks play before I even thought that Brendan Morrison was good-looking, or Taylor Pyatt was traded to our team. I've always been fascinated with the Mighty Ducks 1, 2, 3 movies while growing up since that's the closest I got to watching "hockey" as it was non-existent in the Philippines. I love the speed players display while skating, how they handle and maneuver the puck, the way goalies seem to make each save look easy and most importantly the emotion running high in the game.
For me, I don't think you can find any sport other than hockey that displays the same amount of speed, skill and intensity in every game and this is why I love it.
As for the attractive hockey players? So? If male fans are allowed to ogle female athletes and cheerleaders and still love the sport itself, why can't we?
Well anyway.
P.S. Thank you Anaheim Ducks. YOU'RE STILL MIGHTY IN MY BOOK!
