February 24, 2019: Double Shot
As if a single shot wasn’t enough… a double shot surely will put you on your ass. The Blackhawks took two to the chin this weekend. With 2 games at the UC against teams going for that same wild card … Continued
February 23, 2019: Calling Off the Dogs

February 22, 2019: Finally 500
Yeah, so Thursday night after our tubing expedition, we ended up back in the restaurant at the ski resort, enjoying some good food and beverages. Of course since we were up in Michigan, they had the Red Wings game on; … Continued
