I didn't like the last trade but I liked this one!

The Whalers got Vincent Trocheck from Saginaw for Zach Bratina and some draft picks.

This is a good trade because Trocheck is pretty good and scores a lot of goals and he always seems to play well when we saw him with Saginaw. He would make me mad though when he played for Saginaw against the Whalers because he talks a lot on the ice and he is kind of a pest like Ryan Hartman but if he does that for us, that is great.

Also I see that he played midget hockey for Little Caesars which is cool because Little Caesars is one of the best lower junior teams in our area and some kids on my team also play on Little Caesars. Trocheck also was on the U.S. Juniors team with Ryan Hartman that won the gold medal a few weeks ago.

I can't wait to see Vincent Trocheck this Friday and Saturday. I will standing by the tunnel for hand-slaps.

Sarnia stings the Whalers

Ok, the Whalers didn't play so great yesterday and lost to the Sarnia Sting 7-5. My brother and dad were saying that the Sting were just quicker to the puck in the first two periods. Also we gave up an easy "five-hole" goal on a weak shot early and that didn't help.

One good thing is that Zach Bratina scored his first OHL goal. I hope they saved the puck for him. Another good thing is I won the Whalers Kids Club player signed photograph of Alex Aleardi and they announced my name over the loudspeaker and put my name on the big screen. I won one of Alex last year too but I will take another one. That's cool. If I can scan it, I might it up here in a post.

Another cool thing is we saw Mitchell Heard walking around the crowd and it was nice to see Mitchell again. He was walking around with Tom Wilson who is injured right now.

Well Alex Aleardi scored two goals so I give him the Whaler Town player of the game.

I bet the Whalers will play better next week.

The next game is Tuesday afternoon  and we don't have school because it is election day. I don't know if my dad or my mom is going to take us because my dad works on Tuesday but we are going because we have tickets.
