More on Kevin Jebson and Shane Malone, and more Bulldogs stuff.

Just some more thoughts on Kevin Jebson and Shane Malone.

I mentioned yesterday that Kebson was lights out in every game he played against the Dogs last season. Upon further research today - In his three games against the Dogs he picked up STAR honors in every game. First star once, Second star once, and Third star once.

Nuff' said.

Shane Malone. Not that the classy Bulldog fans wouldn't ALREADY - but be sure to give Shane Malone a nice warm welcome if he returns to The Pound as a member of the visiting team next year. And not just for his service to the club and the community. Do it for a moment that still sticks out in my head from last season. You may or may not remember the incident in Langley where Daniel Moriarty was jumped by the Chiefs at the opening puck drop of the second period. Daniel already had one fight on the game, and couldn't afford the automatic ejection that came with his second fight as Brown University had come to the game for the sake of seeing him play.

With another fight already on going on the ice, the officials weren't there to protect Daniel. His young and inexperienced teammates on the ice didn't come to his aid either. It was a tough situation for them.

Cue big Malone, fighting through the people on the bench to hold him back, to come to Daniel's aid. It was a personal sacrifice in the name of a teammate that I certainly won't forget. I know that Shane's former teammates won't forget it, and I know the Bulldogs fans probably won't either. Since it happened on the ROAD, I thought I should give you just a little reminder about it.

I still remember the energy and pride I felt seeing Shane coming off the bench. No gloves on, no helmet on. Not only was he coming to a teammates aid who was jumped and who was fighting several of the opposition.... he was doing it like a guy with some stones and some class and some recognition of the "code"

SEASON TICKET PICK UP.
