The London Knights vs. Oshawa General game

Aarsson To Hospital
Who else thought that check on Scott Aarsson which sent him to the hospital last night, was one of the worst calls made this year? Cal Clutterbuck of the Oshawa Generals was out to injure, and he did just that. I hope Scott is not too badly hurt, and will be back in the line-up soon. The ref called the hit from behind, which was about a foot from the boards "cross checking" What ref school did he go to?

Clutterbuck the Creep
Clutterbuck is a creep of a player, his main hockey skill is to stir it up. He starts fights, but doesn't fight back, won't drop his gloves, and therefore the other player gets the penalty. Jordan Shine got a game misconduct for going after him a bit later, after Clutterbuck injured Aarsson. The creep was just laying on the ice and did nothing, knowing full well Shine would go off. In the second period Clutterbuck takes a full side-on run at Steve Mason, while he was facing shooters, and on that injury-intended penalty, I feel he should have been ejected, but was only lightly penalized.

Hey refs...
Getting under the skin of the opposing team is a part of hockey, but when you do it to a point where you injure people, and then only light penalties are handed out, the game gets out of control.

To the two refs of this game, read and apply the rules better or hang-up the whistles! There should be no place in hockey anywhere for people who do their jobs that poorly.

TIPS

The format:
I was planning to post every home date until the end of the season, but that is too many dates for everyone to check through, so I will now add a new date as one comes off...this gives us about a month ahead.

NEW!!! BUYER SELLER in title
I am now putting the word "BUYER" at the end of the post title if there are buyer comments posted and the word "SELLER" at the end of the post title if there are seller comments posted or "BUYER SELLER" if there are both types of comments. This will make it easier to tell which postings have ticket action taking place.

TIP:
The best way to rotate through the dates listed is to click open the latest date posting and then from there the program lists all the others and reduces your available clicks to just the ones you haven't opened. Keep checking through each, until you have viewed them all.

COMMENTARY Seats are there!

I see available seats at every game!
At Friday's game at the JLC, I saw empty seats in the season ticket holders sections. Believe it or not, some unused seats were 4 & 5 in a row, and that is good for all you fans now frequenting this blog and looking for tickets. The good and positive news is we know the seats are there ...now, it's just a matter of time before those ticket holders get on here to be able to get reimbursed for their seats when they can't make it to a game.

I am doing all that I can to make this site better known --so if everyone talks it up when ever they can about this blog it will really help out. Word of mouth is a powerful medium. Once the Season Ticket Holders find out they can recoup the cost for their spares, without having to run an expensive ad, we will see more spare tickets available on this blog. Because, most of the time its last minute reasons why fans can't make it to a game, and they think there is no way to make the tickets available at short notice...NOW THERE IS!

www.yourticketsin.blogspot.com Spread the word where ever you can, and eventually the ticket holders will be on here too! Post it on your bulletin board at work for example.
or at hockey rinks... etc.

If anyone knows or can think of places and ways to further promote this blog, please let me know.
