Round these parts (and with my friends) Ice Hockey is pretty big. It actually helps that the local Hockey team are way better than any of the other quintisential American sport teams, in fact the American Football one (Washington Redskins) sucks big time!
So we went to see the Washington Capitals play the Carolina Hurricanes. Unfortuntunately I read the tickets wrong and missed the first 20 minutes but we were in the pub so thats ok
When we got to the game the Caps were losing 0-1. The game was really exciting with the score at end of normal time 3-3.
In Ice Hockey extra time runs on the principle of sudden death so when the Caps scored, the game was over with them being the winners!
The only downside was there were NO FIGHTS! Whats the point of hockey without blood?!
The Zamboni – is it wrong that I love these things?
Celebrating the winning goal!
