$16 tickets to the hockey? Yes please.
We got the Ryans & Thomissers together and the 10 of us headed to Bojangles to get our 2nd game of the season in.
This time we got tickets sitting behind the goal that the Checkers attack twice. Just for a different view. And I think for the better. The Checkers started strong, and unlike last month's game, fouls were relatively limited. The Checkers put away 2 goals in the first period, and I really liked watching the build up down the ice, and then we were all out of our seats for the final shot, as the goals were slightly obstructed by the height we were at.
Another goal in the 2nd period seemed to sure up the match, but the Peguins came out swinging in the 3rd and quickly had 2 goals back, making thing momentarily interesting. The Checkers killed it off with 2 more goals in the 6th minute of the last period and the game ended 6-3.
I found this game easier to follow the puck, but still things happen so fast that I don't see what and why fouls are called. But I am a fan of sitting behind the net, instead of side on. I think I now know what is icing is, so that's a start. It's also nice seeing a Charlotte team doing resonably well (unlike the Panthers & Hornets). We now have a 4-3 record when coming to watch the Checkers.
Charlotte Checkers 6: J. Sourdif (10, 59), M. Samoskevich (15), Z. Dalpe (34), S. Kinnunen (45), B. Perlini (45) defeated Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins 3: J. Gruden (40), C. Dessruixeaux (42), T. Smith (51)
Crowd: 7,525.
