A Few Good Updates

It has been super hectic lately and I haven't had much chance to update the old b-l-o-g. But now I have a minute, so here you go.

Hockey Update:

I know you've all been waiting for me to issue my verdict on the changes to NHL rules following their strike. Well, here it is: THEY ROCK!! In the last week I have seen the Minnesota Wild (my official favorite NHL team) win two games in shootouts. Holy excitement, Batman. I think it's kind of weak when games can end in ties. Plus shootouts are super intense. You get to see some sweet moves and some crazy saves. Yay NHL!! Yay MN Wild!!

Something else you've been waiting for...Last year's best name in Gopher Hockey (Kris Chucko) departed for the ranks of the NHL. While I wish him all the best, it is time to crown a new best sports name on the Gopher Hockey team. Without further ado I bring you...Alex Goligoski #10. His name has flow.

Weekend Update:

I'm fending for myself this weekend, as Pete has left me behind to go play paintball. I was planning to accompany him, but given the cold weather and the sinus infection I'm nursing, he didn't think it was a good idea. I hate it when Pete's right :) Plus the Fredo would have been pretty cold, I think.

Recommendation:

If you live in the metro area and have not been to Tandoor in Bloomington, you must go. They have some delicious Indian food. If you heed my advice and do go, you should get the Chicken Madras. It's so good. You can eat in their dining room, or order it to go. Yum, yum, yum.

And now I've hit my blogging wall for the day. I'm all blogged out.
