It was, needless to say, an amazing (but tiring) weekend.
Friday night we took down Reading in their arena 4-3. They had us down by 2 at the end of the first, but no worries, not only did we pound in two during the second period, but we did so in the third as well. Good thing too, because Reading did make an attempt to come back with one goal on the power play in the third. Nice bus trip, good crowd from the fan club. I think the guys appreciated us being there, which makes the drive well worth it.
Saturday was the key game in my mind, of course, beating Reading I'm sure pumped the Chiefs up for Saturday night against Wheeling, and it worked. We stomped them 6-2. Take THAT first place team ;) We paced ourselves with a goal a period and keeping them at zilch until the third period, in which they did get two goals, but only intermittently as we stomped a few more in.
Finally, Sunday - Trenton went down. But that's not all, Richard Paul was on the starting line up *grin* and I had seats directly behind the Chief's box. Yeah, close enough to smell'm and boy do they get ripe by the third. Unfortunate for Trenton, but they didn't stand a chance - the Chiefs were on a roll this weekend, and we were up by 3 at the end of the second. Their two goals in the third didn't touch us, especially with the additional 3 we got. Also, Mather pulled in the first hat trick of the season for the team - so three cheers to Shawn.
But that's not all! Sunday games you get to skate with the Chiefs afterwards. I did hit the ice, but I had a heck of a time as the ice was pretty choppy (to be expected after a period of hockey, no?) I didn't go nagging for autographs, but I did take a few random pictures.
