Due to the awesome response to our open hockeys this summer, Face-off Circle will continue to offer women’s open hockey every Wednesday in August from 9-10:30pm for 10 bucks.
From experience, the open hockeys have been great for conditioning and working on little things you want to improve. Again, we offer that people with any experience level come play.
Here are the dates:
8/6
8/13
8/20
8/27
I received this via Kathy McEntee…
To All,
As in any family, when one family member needs help, the rest of the family is there for them. Sadly, one of our “hockey family” members needs our help now more than ever. Ben Stear, a current Glaciers Midget Minor and CB South player suffered a broken neck during a game at Faceoff this past Saturday. He has underwent surgery, and is currently in Jefferson Hospital facing a difficult recovery.
I am collecting donations for the Stear family to help with their many expenses during this difficult time.
Please give whatever you can, and please forward this e-mail to any other sports family in your address book. I also ask everyone to keep Ben in their prayers.
All money raised will be used to purchase pre-loaded VISA cards for the Stears to use as they need. Checks should be made out to me so I can purchase the cards. (if you prefer, checks can be made out directly to Ben’s dad Ken Stear, but I feel it would be much easier if he didn’t have to worry about going back and forth to the bank)
Please send all donations to : Jim McKenzie
406 Merion Dr.
Newtown, PA 18940
Or, if you prefer I can arrange a pick up.
Thanks in advance for your support!
Sincerely,
Jim McKenzie

The mission of the Hawks Women’s Ice Hockey Recreation Team is to provide instruction in the basic skills of ice hockey including skating, puck-handling, passing and shooting. This team serves as a great source of exercise, fun and socialization for women ages 17 and up.

Paypal allows you to pay with a credit card, debit card or your checking account. Paypal charges the Hawks with a 3% surcharge, so prices are a few bucks more.

Please register online even if you are paying by check.
Part 2: Evaluations
Evaluations are June 21 and June 22 at 6:30pm at Face-Off Circle.

Why??
If you are any hockey fan of any sorts, you should be outraged. I guess VS. forgot about the 90’s?
As per USA Today:
Versus might take shot at puck tracking for NHL telecasts
Tracking would make it easier for TV viewers to follow the fast-moving puck. But the idea brought back memories of Fox’s “glowing puck” experiment from 1996-98. It got mixed reviews, with some players and coaches complaining the internal electronics of the “FoxTrax” puck made it play differently. When ABC picked up the NHL’s broadcast rights in 1998, the idea was junked.
Want to see what the new puck tracker will look like?
Visit the No Puck Tracker Online Petition and tell them we don’t want it!!!
Who: All C and D Hawks who plan on playing travel next year.

A few weeks ago, the Hawks C team traveled to Lake Placid for some tournament action
In Game 1, the Hawks faced the Messa Mustangs and tied them 5-5 in a high scoring game. In game 2, the Hawks tied the Connecticut Lighting 1-1. Sunday (Game 3), the Hawks needed a win to advance to the championship game which they did convincingly 8-2 against the Cobourg Chaos!!
The Hawks then soared in the championship game against the CT Lightning 2-1 to bring home the gold! Jacky Foley scored the tournament winning goal!
The Hawks also enjoyed playing their first game on the 1980 Miracle on Ice Rink!
Of course the C Hawks enjoyed more than just ice hockey in Lake Placid, like Bobsledding on the side of the road.
I’m thinking that the Hawks should stick with playing hockey…..
More pictures of the Lake Placid tourney are on the right —>
Congrats Hawks on your big win!!
Here we go.
Pens vs. Flyers
Most of you know, I majored in journalism and psychology in college which lands me at my present job. The reason I left Journalism was the fact that I find it hard to be unbiased about hot topics, news, etc.
That being said:
Let’s Go Flyers!!!!
(PS: C Team, someone email me some deats and some pics from your tourney so i can post)
