Season Opener

Tomorrow night we open up our regular season on the road against Detroit at 7:30pm. It's been a good week out here in Battle Creek, on Monday we moved into our new house right on the lake. It's a great 3 bedroom house with 2 floors and plenty of space, for the time being we have 7 guys staying here 2 of the guys will move into another new house hopefully next week. It was nice to be able to move my clothes out of the car and into my own room. No more living in a cramped hotel room and not being able to fully unpack. A couple of guys on the team are building the locker room and making improvements so it will be done for our home opener next weekend.

Everything is really coming together out here and our accomodations are very good for a single A team. We've hung out as a team away from the rink a couple times and have taken the time to get to know each other as a team. It's funny a little more than a week ago we had 38 players trying out for this team and now we're down to 19. There were so many guys here that I didn't know everyone in the dressing room. Now that we have our team I've gotten to know everything and I think we have a very strong team.

We'll see how this weekend goes and hopefully we will come out on top in both nights.
