Coyotes

Alex and I walked over to the arena today and took in an open practice that the Phoenix Coyotes were having. It's probably the only opportunity I'll ever get to actually be sitting in the front row right at the glass. We had a fun time and they gave Alex a puck.

The first picture is Shane Doan on the left. He was literally only a few feet away from us. Cujo (Curtis Joseph) was the goalie on our end of the ice and looked pretty good. The Coyotes are probably going to have to rely on him quite a bit as Brian Boucher was hurt during the exhibition game a few nights ago.

I expect Cujo to have a very big year this year. He's had a year to get completely healthy, and he's motivated to prove the Red Wings were wrong in their dealings with him. The 'Yote's don't hve a lot of talent, but if Cujo plays like I think he is going to, and Gretzy and Hull can motivate the young guys to play over their heads...Phoenix might sneak into th e playofs, and even do wome first round damage!
