UAA: Patiently Waiting For Next Season, Every Season...

The questions are being asked hoping to find out what players will be on the team for the second half of the season.
It is not unusual for guys to leave a team at the Christmas break for any number of reasons and I seem to recall a new guy was coming in after the break.
The way your question is worded leaves me with the feeling you are offended that I am curious about our team makeup.
If that is the case please accept my apology as I didn't mean to offend you or anyone else.

So did you ask these questions last night? Nils Rygaard is not currently on the roster.

Oh yeah. I've been a day ahead all week long. I wish this was streamed. David said they were trying to do that, but so far I don't think they have.

Didn’t meet up with thepuckluck. The place was crowded, tons of questions, A player showed up, also a ast coach.The three questions, Nils, new stuff, old stuff and the future stuff was all talked about it in detail. But...........

Discussing it here really isn't appropriate, IMO.

So I’m not ratting because she knows Bristol.

I think you have me confused with Squarebanks. And you're the one who said the questions should be asked, lol. I already know the answers. Wondering if Nils will be in the lineup tonight?

Although we had previously been to the arena several times, last evening was the first time we had been to the restaurant. We didn't have reservations and no good way to spot Alaska Hockey so we had a 3 to 5 minute wait to be seated. The menu and beer selection was a pleasant surprise. It was more like an upscale sports restaurant then something usually found in an arena.
Coach Thomas giving straightforward answers and evaluations of the team and where they are in their progression, rather then the usual cliché "coach speak" answers, was very refreshing. He has a very entertaining way of speaking.
He was followed by current player Chase Van Allen who gave some insight into how a defenseman influences his forwards. Chase also introduced his sister who is home on Christmas break from Arizona where she plays soccer. Two very accomplished young adults.
Assistant coach Louis Mass came across as a "live in the moment" type person. He doesn't appear to drag a lot of past date baggage with him. He talked quite a bit in answer to a question about how recruits are selected.
It was definitely one of the best "bangs for the buck" we've found in Anchorage.
We will definitely be going again.

It is a nice atmosphere. Sometimes the other diners who aren't there for hockey can interfere with your enjoyment. Hope that didn't happen. That's what I love about Thomas, he gives it to you straight! I really like him. And if you happen to get a parking ticket while you are dining there, you can just mail the ticket in with your restaurant bill and they will forgive it. :)

Clearly the coach didn't have them prepared. They played like crap! How embarrassing. If I were a casual fan there is no way I would waste my money on tomorrow nights game. I hope coach puts the lines back together like they were before the break. Come on UAA, play with some heart tomorrow!
 
Re: UAA: Patiently Waiting For Next Season, Every Season...

We don't have Mantha it's 10-3, so we got that going for us.

He made some amazing saves - but I think he would want those last two goals back. Absolutely pathetic "effort" by the rest of the team. They better come out wanting the win tonight. These loyal fans deserve more. Hey players ... Christmas break is over.

Kurt Haider left a nice post on Donald's blog. That's awesome.
Would really think it cool if Tuttlte had him on between periods tonight.
 
Re: UAA: Patiently Waiting For Next Season, Every Season...

They played two good periods. Too bad games are three.
 
Re: UAA: Patiently Waiting For Next Season, Every Season...

On the plus side, we're tied with _airbanks and we got 4 games on them.

He’s suited up as #12, was cleared by the Mucky Mucks and ready to play this weekend.

Games this week are Thursday. The Seawolves play at Lake Superior State on Saturday 3:07 and Sunday 1:07, and play at Bowling Green on the following Thursday and Friday.

All games will be on at the American Legion on Brayton drive. Come on by and a member will host the games. Monster steak night $25.00 for a 32 oz t bone steak 4: pm-8: pm.

Watch hockey and try to power down that t bone while washing it down with a local beverage.
