The Tale of Two Goaltenders

Well, we attended an interesting game last night where the current goaltender of the Nashville Predators faced off against his predecessor.....Chris Mason. It seemed from the moment that the game began that they set out to prove which was the best.....Mason or Ellis. I have never attended a "double shutout" game before and when the "snow" settled, there would be only one victor.

I heard allot of talk in section 303 (the Cell Block is my section) including things like "see Mason, that's how you make a stop" but at the end of the game when Mason received the 1st star of the game the cheers made it apparent that all of his fans did not leave Nashville when he was traded at the end of last season.

I am glad I was able to attend the first game with my favorite goaltender playing for the opponent and I didn't have to chant "he shoots, he scores, you SUCK"! I still don't know if I will be able to do it.

Final Score: Blues 1 - Predators 0

It was a cold morning (around 17 degrees when we left the hotel) and we are heading out for some fun. Allot of people think that OHV are not and can not be good for the environment, but I would tend to disagree. For the most part, the OHV community is "tread lightly" and we respect what we enjoy.....our opportunity to combine two passions, a passion for the great outdoors and a passion for climbing and crossing the impossible.

Gotta love these machines...and look at that view!
