Now that the playoffs have started and the Flames, who were predicted to be a top team at the start of the season, missed making the playoffs in the final week of the season. That means they end up in their traditional “absolutely middle of the pack” position they usually get in years they suck, […]
“More Than A Game” – Mike Plume Band I didn’t put a lot of thought into this (well, except picking whoever was against the Oilers and Leafs!) but here’s my picks for this year’s Stanley Cup Playoffs…
Sasha and I got to meet Wendel Clark at “Hometown Hockey” in Regina back in 2015. (Even had a funny exchange with a hero from my childhood.) Kinda funny that his junior numbers weren’t amazing (he’s no Connor Bedard, that’s for sure!) but I suspect it was actually his PIM which helped him go first […]
This article is from mid-March but it’s still amazing how dominant Connor Bedard has been and what a privilege it’s been that he’s playing in Regina so I’ve been able to see him play a few times. Draft-eligible seasons: • McDavid (47GP) – 44G, 120PTS• Bedard (47GP) – 59G, 123PTS He’s 7 months younger. He […]
Went to the Regina Pats’ final home game of the regular season last night: Thanks to @TaigaBP for donating their Concourse level tickets to a silent auction fundraiser for @CarmichaelOR.

Okay, I’m pretty sure the dates announces for the Canadian Tour predates the “Experience Regina” rebrand. But who cares because I’ve got tickets and am going! Plus it’s apparently going to be a TV taping, possibly for a brand new AEW show. As a teaser, here’s some highlights from an amazing match AEW showed on […]
A bit of a different Throwback Thursday post today as it’s not an actual old photo. Instead, it represents some fond memories from a long time ago. I found two pendants on Facebook Marketplace that were part of a larger series for Cup-winning teams. These happen to be two of my favourite teams – the […]
The Flames have *sucked* this year – terrible goaltending, terrible coaching decisions, players not performing up and down the lineup, boring hockey, losing a league-leading number of one-goal games, only team in entire NHL to not have a comeback victory when trailing going into the third, and also sucking in 3-3 overtime (if they’d won […]
Pace has been working at some Pats’ games to earn money for a school trip. We signed him up for the Saturday game not thinking that it would be Frost Festival at REAL but luckily I popped into the Exhibition Grounds on Friday night on the way to supper with some friends and realised that […]
