On a side note, surprised to see gorges wearing his team jersey. I heard that pro players don't wear their team jerseys at these games and, if they do, they wear them inside out.

a little heads up... this week the okanagan hockey school has camps at cnc
11:15am every day they have the ice rented for the pros....
apparently today saw....
schenn brothers
weber
comeau
gorges
price
tootoo
reimer
justin schultz
to name a few
there were apparently over 20 guys out today
the 'deal' is something like: ohs rents the ice for them and then they chat with the hockey school kids - pretty cool pr if you ask me

If Comeau is there, and he scores the #ComeauEra of the Blue Jackets will be unreal.

hey cp
ok - i survived!!!!
i had no idea what to expect going into this ice time and was getting a little nervous becuz 20 minutes before we were to hit the ice i was still the only guy there. it ends up that this ice time was to help Dany continue to rehab his shoulder. so it was Dany, his dad Murray, another guy and me! that was it - just the 4 of us!
my wife came prepared to take pics but becuz he was still rehabbing his shoulder i thought i better ask before she took any pics. he preferred that we didn't and we respected that.
the ice time was pretty much breakaway drills on me. now, tell any of the guys on my mens team this and they'd just start laughing! i have a hard enough time stopping breakaways in div 4 in mens league and now i have to try and shut down a pro.... oh jeeze!!!!
i had an absolute blast and even with a 'tight shoulder' Heatley still had absolutely sick moves! there was a few times right in front of the crease that i was tempted to poke check him, but i didn't think it would be wise in case i took him out. one of the (many) goals he scored had him cut across me from my right side. he wired the shot. i stopped it with my blocker, but the puck went up, bounced off my helmet and then Dany batted it out of the air into the net. i looked up at him and said, 'REALLY?!?!' ....he just smiled!! 
Dany was a great guy to chat with in the change room. i didn't really ask him any hockey questions. he was more interested in what i do for work becuz his dad is also in the same industry - so we had a bunch to chat about
on the way out of the rink we stopped to get some pics. him and i posed and then i scooped up my daughter to get her in on a pic. she took one look at Dany and started to wail!! ...not cry, whimper, sniffle... i'm talking full on with everything she had wail!! i looked at Dany and said, "sorry dude, she's a flames fan just like her daddy!" he burst out laughing, we shook hands and he took off!
what a great day!

Is that a beer gut hiding underneath Heatley's shirt?

We liked to call it the "summer work out routine" lift right hand to mouth, lower with slightly less weight.

Him wearing a shirt that says "sorry for being awesome" and following the Heatley parody account on twitter is priceless.

Unfortunately BC Chris' experience is going to wind up with that pic of Heatley going to be like that fat Byfuglien wedding pic last year.
