GR Griffins are on a 5 game win streak, stand first in their division and neck and neck with Houston in the conference. Very explosive team this year. 127 goals so far. We lead the AHL in goals scored. We beat Iowa last night 6-5. We're giving up too many goals, though. The Red Wings run the show, ultimately, and they are making us play Jimmy Howard their #1 pick in goal. He shows signs of brillliance, but gives up to many rebound opportunities and soft goals. Our regular goalie is up with the Wings and our backup, Drew MacIntyre is sort of screwed because of Howard. He's been playing very well.
Manny Lagace will do a rehab game with the Griffins tomorrow night. I gave my tickets to a friend before I knew that. Whine....
Saturday, New Years Eve, Griffs play Chicago Wolves (the Woofs, I hate that team.)
Me and SWMBO and both g'kids are going. We've been taking the g'kids for 10 years. Good way to be involved in their lives. Our season seats are on the blue line, front row, upper bowl. Best seats in the house.
