Nobody ever said "As American as apple cake."
That's correct. The OP has the link to the Roller Hockey team. They have apparently upgraded their facility a bit as it appears to be a full rink with a new paint job from the photos on their website.
That was my understanding a well, but I wasn't sure.
Or Cherry cake, that I know of
I used to be friends with someone on the Ice hockey team and I believe they travel to roanoke for every practice.
Forgot about that one.
Thanks for the reminder [sarcastica]
I know some of it is from the 70s and 80s NFL films.
So many "could-of-beens" from the past two seasons. FSU, Duke, and Maryland were all heartbreakers.
Yeah I definitely believe we should do men's (& women's) hockey before women's golf and lacrosse.
Where would this arena be? It can't be at the site of the old Cassell. I don't see the space, or parking spots for events (unless they take the cage for events). Would be interesting though.
Ohio State actually doesn't have a great defense....They were 45th nationally....109th against the pass, but 7th against the run.
Its actually their offense that is their strength...they were 7th in the nation.
Good points. Did not know the engineering behind it.
Yeah, the reason I heard about it and got so much information was because I was having a conversation with one of the donors from the Board of Visitors and was like "It would be so awesome if VT had a hockey team." Then, I got much of the information I stated in my last post from him.
He said "We do! However..."
He also told me, though this was a couple years ago, that everyone who donates and marks it for a hockey facility for the team would get access to the box seats (he did not mention a minimum) and first dibs on tickets whenever it does get built.
I believe there is a street/roller hockey team. Don't thinkthey are the same as our ice hockey team.
Well, in terms of overall team effort I respectfully disagree that it was one of our more impressive efforts (since it had to go into OT). Also, defensively, the '11 was one of our lesser impressive efforts. But still, good story.
That's pretty funny. I hope whoever your mrs is won't be that annoying of a bitch (no offense to lady Hokies on here).
TKP needs to take up a collection for him so he has VT season tickets for the rest of his life!!
If I ever become a father, I will totally be Calvin's dad.
I remember seeing the VT hockey team practice in roller blades on the small concrete hockey ring/court/field next to the tennis courts. I always thought our program would never take off due to poor facilities. I mean we don't have basketball practice on grass and it is a big difference between concrete and ice.
That's awesome. I think we should do it.
EDIT: I have faith, but they've got Crosby.
No, we've got Cosby!
I think Leal took the soundtrack from the 80's show, CHiPS for his highlight video...
