Lowell Lock Monsters’ Hat Trick Guarantee!


in AHL, Dave, GoonSquad

It’s going to be a hot time in the old town tonight. The Lock Monsters take on the Hartford Wolf Pack in Lowell, and the game has an added air of excitement to it as the result of a rather bold claim:

"A Monster will score three, or the next home game is free!  The Lock Monsters promise that one of their players will record a hat trick on Saturday, or everyone in attendance will get a free ticket to see Lowell host Albany on November 16th."

Chris and I will be in the house, so I sincerely hope the Monsters come through with their claim. It’s almost like Dunlop setting a bounty on the head of Dr. Hook. Tonight is also Military Appreciation night, and anyone donating an item which can be shipped overseas to the troops (see list here) will receive another free ticket to the home game against Manchester on the 20th. Hopefully, I’ll be neck deep in free tickys by the time we hit the Brewery Exchange. And beer.

One of us will chime in with a full report tomorrow so stay tuned. And in the meantime have a safe weekend, everyone.

Turn out the Lights

Finally the Bruins have gotten on the board with a fight last night in Chicago. Nice work by Gregory Campbell to try to spark the boys. Not much of a scrap, but good on Soupy to get it started. The fight I wanted to talk about happened Thursday between Pittsburgh's Arron Asham, and Washington's Jay Beagle. It was a bit of a one sided affair, and the fight got the hockey world talking. Personally, I thought it was a good scrap, and had to be done, but others don't see it that way. The fight s...

Turning the Page

We are now 9 games into the NHL season, and there has been a total of 1 fight. One. Uno. That's not a lot. It was a decent scrap in yesterday afternoon's contest between LA's Kyle Clifford, and the Rangers Brandon Prust. I am not here to offer any analysis on why there has only been one fight, I'm just saying, there hasn't been many. https://youtu.be/NpGTNXVIHGM The Flyers and Bruins sure could have used one the other night. I was certain Andy Ference and Zac Rinaldo were going to have ...

Michael P. Russell 1975-2011

Well, I hate to do it again with the bad news about a hockey player dying, but here we go. An old friend of mine from way back in the day was killed in a car accident last Saturday night. Of all the deaths over this summer, the death of Mike Russell hits the hardest. Mike was 36, had a wife and 2 kids, and was my best friend growing up. He will be missed. I don't know exactly when and where Mike and I met. I would assume it was the early 80's, at either a soccer field, or a hockey rink. ...

You Will Respect My Authority!

Alrighty! Let's put the negativity of the summer and my last two posts behind us shall we? Why? Its back. Hockey is back! NHL Network has been showing a couple of preseason games a night, and it's great to see their commitment to the pre- season. It was also great to see Kathryn Tappen in studio, not dressed like a pilgrim. I think so far, the MVP of the pre-season has to be Brendan Shanahan. Shanny is the new Sheriff in town for the NHL, and he's wasted no time dolling out his brand of justi...
