Teemu 4-Rangers 0

Here are some pictures from yesterday's Ducks Rangers game. The dumb ass that I am, I was thinking about taking the camera with me to the game, but forgot it at home so T took some pictures from the game with her phone.


Teemu is about to score his first goal of the game!

This is the where the game continues after Teemu scored his second goal.

The Ducks face off in their own half. The center wins the face off, gets the buck to Teemu and he shoots, he scores!!! His third of the game and a hat trick!

Teemu and his 4th...After this it got ugly. The Rangers couldn't take it anymore, especially the swedes on the team and just started fighting. They were all ejected.

This is how it would have been had Teemu played. As it was, he was home in Anaheim probably sitting by the pool drinking something cool and refreshing! The game ended 4-2 for Rangers and the swedes were all over the score board. It wasn't enough that Henrik Lundquist was in goal for the Rangers but Markus Naslund and Frdrik Sjostrom scored for Rangers and Samuel Pahlson had an assist for the Ducks. Then there were 4 swedes right in front of us and it seemed like they didn't really know all that much about ice hockey. and if that isn't enough, the only Finn available for the game, Lauri Korpikoski of Rangers was inactive for this game!!! WTF?!?! Not that he matters, I just wanted to see Teemu play in an NHL game before he retires. Sigh...maybe he doesn't retire after this season but will continue next season and I get to see him then...

I would definitely go see a game in the Garden again. Even though we were in the 300 level the view to the ice was great and it seemed like you could see well from everywhere. It was cold as hell inside there too, as well as outside and we had overpriced hot dogs and shared a coke before the game started. After the game ended we walked to Port Authority, took the bus home and got home just before 11pm. I think we were in bed by 11:30.

Today I had physical therapy before work. I got the usual dose of electric shock (stimulation), ultra sound, massage and then we went to the gym. I rolled my ankle in a machine for 10 minutes and did the bike for another 10. Now no one can't say I haven't been to the gym lately! LOL! Last time I was there the electric shocks were a little too intense, or so I would imagine as they made my 4 toes convulse. It was awesome!!! I want one of them so that I can watch my toes curl up every day! This time it wasn't as strong but still felt nice. I have another appointment this Friday and 2 sessions next week as well. I can definitely feel that my foot got a work out but at the same time it feels good. And I know I need to challenge it so that the joints get stronger and more mobile. Hopefully I will be able to run some day soon.

I was talking with Karl yesterday about the classes and the starting of semester and he told me he only has 2 classes this semester. I asked him how is that possible because the visa requirements say we need to be full-time students. He said that since he is graduating this spring and only needs 6 more credits to graduate he isn't taking anymore classes that necessary. I thought since that applies to me as well I might investigate this myself. And I found out that in fact I only need 6 credits so I am dropping a class!!! I will only have 1 day of school this semester!!! Woo Hoo!!! Life's a bitch and then you die! LOL!

But enough about that...Gotta leave soon, my first and only day of classes is about to start! Gotta go get some coffee! Later peeps!
