A Girl's Guide to Hockey: Our Year in Review

2011 was a big year for us (hockey wise, at least). We got to meet some of our favorite players and go to more events than we ever have before. 2011 reminded us why we love hockey. Here's a recap of this years adventure:

January

1st- Watched the Winter Classic on TV. Lackluster, frustrating, and ughhhh Crosby got injured. Not the best start to the year.

28th- All Star Draft Night

Got lucky & had a prime spot for all the draft action (including Ovi freaking out like a kid when the confetti fell (see picture above).
Got to talk to JR & Kevin Weekes.
Came REALLY close to meeting Matt Duchene. Still angry at the guy that led him away from us.
Almost killed a guy for yelling at Skinner for 5 straight minutes.
Saw the Stanley Cup again!
Danced to Three Doors Down from the top of a parking deck.

29th- All Star Skills Competition Day

Woke up early to go to Steven Stamkos & Jeff Skinner signings!
Stalked Tyler Seguin (how could we not?)
Met Ryan Kesler & Jamie McBain!
Unfortunately met Taylor Hall. We heard from rumor sites that he's not very nice and it's actually true.
Got great spots at the Red Carpet event before the Skills Competition!
Watched the Skills Competition from our friends couch while hanging out with some of our favorite people!

Feb-March

Continued to be sad about Sidney...especially when the Penguins came to the RBC Center!
Still attended lots of Canes game.

April

First road trip down to Charlotte! Got to see the Charlotte Checkers defeat the Hershey Bears on the way to winning the series!
Perfected a recipe for Depression brownies since the Canes didn't make the playoffs
