Just got back from seeing all the trophies!!!! Super cool, cup is not as large up close as my dreams but still beautiful for an old gal. 100s of jerseys there and easily 95% Hawks as usual... I saw a CBJ jersey on a kid, just looked odd. Funny thing... I'm like 6'2 200 and certainly fit the look profile I suppose of an NHLer and was wearing a low hat and my son and I got some lunch while there and all these kids in Hawks jerseys were starrimg and pointing at me for an hour it was hilarious....

Yes.... I could have said I'm not a player.... But why ruin THEIR fun right lol

I'd love to be able to post more, but life gets in the way unfortunately. I'll still be around, just may not be able to post all the time.

Oh, and as for the Cup... I couldn't sleep last night and found a full game video of game 6 on YouTube, so I watched that on the big screen. I have to tell you, watching Toews lift the Cup over his head then kiss it never gets old.

Yesterday the NHL Network was showing some of the finals games, and the parade. I made sure to DVR game 6. While I didn't watch the whole game again, I was sure to check-in from about the 16 min mark of the second period until the end. I still cheered loudly when the Hawks scored their goals even though I knew they were coming. Great atmosphere.

I know what you mean. As I said before, I was watching game 6 again the other night and even though I obviously know we won, I still found myself biting my nails as time ran down and every time the puck stuck in our end for a long time. It's ridiculous yet kind of awesome to be able to watch the game again, knowing the result, and still get so invested in the game.
