The rink is pink....

I must say that tonights Pats/Oil Kings game is going to have a different feel to it. The pink ice surface I'm sure will cause some distractions until the players get used to it. From the pictures that have been shown.... it looks like they will be playing on a bed of insulation or cotton candy.

Go Pats Go!

What a crazy week

I'm back and hopefully I will be able to post more frequently.

Well the Pats are still in the CHL Top 10 and I'm proud of them.

The Pats/Blades gaem sounded really interesting. Too bad they couldn't have pulled it off but they never gave up.

Game night tonight.

The Pats return to the Brandt Centre ice tonight with a date with the Calgary Hitmen. The action will be hot both on and off the ice. For the first time ever, the Brandt Centre will have “Thirsty Thursday” as $8 will get you 32oz of Molson of product. This will also mark the return of WWE hall of famer, Bret “the Hitman” Hart to Regina. He will sign autographs on the concourse beginning when the door open at 6:00pm.

Calgary @ Regina October 20th, 2011 WHL Game Notes

Head to Head
This will be the second time in just over a week that the Hitmen and Pats have met. Last week in Calgary, The first 57 minutes of the hockey game, the Hitmen carried the play at home against the Pats. The Hitmen held a 3-1 lead until a Jordan Weal power play goal with 2:50 left in the 3rd cut the Hitmen lead to 3-2, then with the net empty, Dyson Stevenson tipped in a Brandon Davidson point shot with just 51 seconds left on the clock to tie the game. Overtime solved nothing, and in a shootout, both Jordan Weal and Morgan Klimchuk scored while Matt Hewitt stopped 2 of three Hitmen shooters for the 4-3 victory.

Road Warriors:
The first half of the season for the Regina Pats is a grueling one 10 of their first 16 are on the road and if you extend it to early December, 20 of the Pats first 32 games are on the road. The road has been kind thus far for the blue and white as they currently are 5-1 away from the Brandt Centre to start the season

Morgan Klimchuk – 1st WHL goal and point (Sept 23rd v/ SC)

I may not be able to live blog tonight as I can't find the charger for my laptop so I may just throw a few updates and thoughts from my phone as the game goes along..... Maybe that will be better for the blog, it will probably give me a better opportunity to take and make notes (scribbling is quicker for me than typing). But we'll see.

Having a blog....

And not having stable internet is a bad combination. I promise updates and I can't do them at home and it bothers me. So I'm doing this at work when I really should be working. I'm going to get this internet thing straightened out soon! Otherwise I'll be updating things from my phone.

Anyway, I'm still here cheering them on.

GO PATS GO!

Unfortunately....

my internet at home is still acting up.

What have I missed?

The Pats pulled off the win in Calgary despite what sounded like a lacklustre effort especially in the second period. I didn't watch the game due to my ongoing internet issues so I was only able to listen to it so I can't make any judgements on the penalty calls in the seven powerplay barrage the Hitmen had limiting the Pats to 1 shot in the frame. This year's Pats battled through and scored two late goals to get the game to OT and then to the shootout where it seems like Jordan Weal is still money in the circus.

What did Chandler Stephenson do to get 2 games as a scratch? I wonder if he'll play in Edmonton tonight.

Matt Marantz sounded as though he fit in right away. I also noticed something on the WHL site.... he's wearing an 'A' already? Wow. That must be some leadership he brings to the table. It's too bad the Pats let him go in the first place (was once listed by the Pats). Edit: I'm thinking that Marantz doesn't have an 'A' on his jersey and that it's a WHL.ca mistake.

I know he's only had 7 starts this year but Matt Hewitt has shaved nearly 2 goals against off of his GAA totals from last year. He's also increased his his Save Percentage by 34 points. I've been impressed with him and his aggressive play and his netminding is getting stronger as the games go on.

Is Dyson Stevenson the second coming of Greg Pankewicz? I don't know but I think they are very similar. Well this is for those of you that know who Greg is.

This weekend is going to test this Pats team. Edmonton looks very strong and the Pats didn't do well against them last season. Red Deer on Saturday will be another huge matchup, even though the Rebels are 4-3 they always battle hard.

As Always,

GO PATS GO

P.S. hopefully I have a working internet this weekend so I can watch the games. I will have more later (work and time permitting).

A very special night in memory of former Captain Rick Rypien

Tonight will be a special night for the Regina Pats organization. Earlier in the summer, former Captain, Rick Rypien passed away. It was one of many tragic moments for the hockey world but one that affected the Regina Pats very deeply. Rick’s mother Shelly will be in attendance and will drop the puck before the game between the Pats and the Cougars.

Tonight, the hockey club is also proud to rename their “Unsung Hero Award” award the “Rick Rypien Award” because he best exemplified hard work not just on the ice, but also what he meant to his teammates and all the work that Rick did in the community.

“In memory of a person who was the epitome of what we want our players to be, it is MY Honour and Privilege to announce that we will be renaming the Regina Pats Unsung Hero award in the Name of former Regina Pat Rick Rypien.” Regina Pats President, Brent Parker continues, “It is an honour that he earned through his commitment, dedication and selflessness. We all miss him dearly but through this award he will continue to have an impact on our organization.”

The ceremony will take place before tonight’s game between the number four team in the country, your Regina Pats and the Prince George Cougars. The Cougars are making their bi-annual trip to Regina and it will be the only chance for fans to see Oilers 2010 second round pick, defenceman Martin Marincin and former Pat, now Cougar Captain, Cody Carlson.

Tickets are available at any Ticketmaster location across Regina, for more information headwww.ticketmaster.ca or call 543-7800. Puck drops at 7pm with the broadcast on 620 CKRM kicking off with the pregame show at 6:35.
