Early start for you left coasters!

I like this mid afternoon start

Scrivens gets his first start in goal.

I'm watching online.. these Florida announcers are so generic

 

[pete6835]

Wow, the whole center ice section is empty.
Over the summer I met a couple from Toronto, and they told me it is cheaper to FLY to Florida buy tickets and see the Leafs on the road, then buy tickets for a home game.

Early start? I've been up for 5 hours. Mowed my lawn, had lunch and a beer. Now I'm enjoying a Kings hockey game. Well it hasn't been real enjoyable so far. The Panthers are all over the Kings. Not giving them any room to operated at all. Gotta start taking the body and making some room out there.

Richards with the great pass and Carcillo with the goal.

That was a pretty goal, all started by Williams himself. And now it's 3-0 thanks to a good play by Stoll and Nolan. And all 3 goals have been 5-on-5 for you worriers.

The game is almost over just about 2 hours, hardly any penalties.

 

[ouendan1]

quick game, and for the first time LA looked dangerous at times 5 on 5. Good win, onto Tampa!

 

[oxnardkingsfan]

Only 3 penalties (2 on the Kings and 1 on Florida) called the entire game. Refs let 'em play as the saying goes. Good win over a team you expect the Kings to beat. Good for the boys to get Scrivens the shutout too. Now it's on to Tampa and a much tougher opponent.

Need to get an early start on the dump Quick chants

 

[pete6835]

I was thinking today, that the team plays different in front of Quick knowing he is back there. When he isn't in, they play harder it seems. That's probably why we didn't get more for Bernier.

You're your worst enemy.

Quick $7,000,000

Scrivens $625,000 (Toronto is paying 10% of it)

Thank God - that's all I have to say.

And if you want to talk about early starts, come live in my house kiddo - I'm up by 4:30-5:00am every...single...day...of...the...week. There are no such things as weekends.

Enjoy you sleep, time and money now and don't knock up people like I did. Word to the wise.

Been there, done that. Of course my four were spread out a bit more than yours. And then I did get those breaks from time to time when my ship went to sea. No kids to help care for but still a lot of early starts to the day. Enjoy it though friend. They'll be grown before you know it and you'll actually miss these times.

That's basically what keeps me going, I know these times will be gone before I know it. Little Puck grew up so fast, I can't believe she turned 8 on Thursday. You guys saw her when I was carrying her around at Staples when she couldn't even walk. It's nuts how fast it went by.

Love all 4 of the kids, and as much work as it is I wouldn't change anything. I started late (30) so as I've gotten older I'm finding myself more tired with the three little ones but I think this is a good thing - they are so close in age we will be out of the rough/tiring/early stages one right after another after another. Little Puck got a lot easier when she turned about 4.5-5, so just 2-3 more years to go.

The one thing I am looking forward to the most is when Puck Jr. I and Little Ms. Puck start school so we only have one in preschool/daycare. We're spending close to $3000 a month on childcare between the 4 kids, having to pay about $800 a month only will free up a ton of money for other things we need/want.

I'm thinking I'll take half the savings and put it away in their college funds and use the other half towards the household budget.
