After a heartbreaking 4-3 loss to the Vees yesterday afternoon It's right back at it today for the Bulldogs as they conclude their appearance in the Bauer BCHL Showcase this morning when they take on the Prince George Spruce Kings in the big rink inside the Prospera Centre in Chilliwack. I think it's a pretty neat comparison between the two photos and the vastly different perspectives we all see the game from. I'll be looking at the game from the image above wayyyy up in the rafters, while the players will see it pretty close to the image on the bottom, right down in the "trenches" so to speak. And no, I'm not comparing sports to warefare, it's just a turn of phrase!
With it being an 11am start time today, we'll call it a "Hockey Brunch". For a late riser, 11am wouldn't be considered too late for breakfast, and for an early bird 11am wouldn't be considered too early for lunch but I'm figuring for your average wake-up time it has to be considered not either-or, but in-between! For some listening and watching today from the Eastern time zone, it's well into possibly afternoon nap time, if it wasn't all so exciting of course!
It's certainly a change of pace for the players. I would call it a change of routine, but it's Game 2 of the season so hopefully no one is going to be bothered too much. It's a different pregame meal today than most, that's for sure with bacon and eggs and oatmeal most likely replacing pasta and chicken, etc. One would think the Bulldogs would have an edge with the early start time as they got off the ice and hopefully shut down earlier last night than the Spruce Kings, who played at 6:30 last night.
Get your late breakfast or early lunch and catch all the action on Pacific Chevrolet Bulldogs Hockey on 93.3 The Peak FM with the Jiffy Lube pregame show kicking off at 10:45 and the puck dropping at 11:00 with myself and Bulldogs Educational Advisor Tom McEvay.
