Two Whaler games

Like my picture in my uniform? I took it myself. I have 9 goals and 3 assists in 6 games and am the leading scorer on my team which is Mission and the #3 scorer in the league. We are 2-4 so we have to pick it up.

I saw two Whaler games over the weekend. They didn't play so good Friday against Owen Sound. The Owen Sound players are pretty big but Carter Sandlak was battling and fighting them. I am liking him.

Saturday, the Whalers played better against Sarnia. The game-winning goal at the end by Zach Lorentz was great. It was right by us and he shot it with his back to the net. Compuware Arena got really loud after that.

Saturday was Pink Out day and my mom wore our pink Stefan Noesen jersey. A lot of people were wearing their pink jerseys. It's cool when my mom comes and she comes a couple of times a year. My Uncle Mike and Aunt Kristen came too.  My mom took me to the Whalers Pink Out dinner a few days before the game and I met a lot of the new players and got my picture taken with them. Matt Mistele asked me who my favorite player was and I said Ryan Hartman and Matt said "He is my favorite too." That's cool. It was a good time. Maybe I will post some pictures.

Good luck to Tom Wilson who is staying with the Capitals this year!

Tom is gonna bring some Whaler muscle to the NHL. He is nice too and would say hi to me when I would stand by the tunnel.

Good game Saturday where the Whalers won against Kitchener. We were outshot like we have been all year but we just gotta hang in there until the new guys learn how to play together. We always stay to the end and were cheering Carter Sandlack's empty-net goal.

After the game, the players signed autographs and I got some of my Whaler cards signed but most of the players do not have cards yet because they are new to the team. It also gave me a chance to see what these new guys even look like close up with no helmet. I have over 200 signed Whaler cards and I should count exactly how many I have. I bet I have the record for signed Whaler cards. 

Whalers win exciting game in overtime

The Whalers won an exciting game in overtime Saturday against Saginaw 4-3. Zach Lorentz was at the side of the net and batted a puck out of the air into the net to win the game.

There are so many new players we are having a hard time figuring out who is who. Zach Lorentz looks solid on defense. Francesco Vilardi is small but he hustles and looks like he can be a goal scorer. Carter Sandlak plays a pretty tough game like Jamie Devane did. The other guys, I am still learning how they play. I never saw so many new guys.

Ryan Hartman is still around and that is cool and he got two goals Saturday. Ryan is always good.

I hope the new guys can step up and learn how to play together or else we might not make the playoffs. Next week at autograph night, I can see the new Whalers close up so I can start getting to know them. My dad was joking that they are going to have to get to know me because I am always around.

I will root for the Whalers always and it doesn't matter how they are doing if they are trying hard.
