I think NHL’ers still use wooden sticks. They sure do break often enough.
After we watched the sing “O Canada” last night, my daughter asked me why they “stand on God.”
I had to explain it was “on guard.”
xsboy breaks sticks ALL the time, and they are expensive! That’s cute! i told xshub about our exchange yesterday and the OH CANADA biz, and how the suthreners think they are all up in the hockey, and how ICE GIRLS are bogus. he swore that it was only in the south, but i had looked into this previously and went online and printed out a list of which teams have “ice based cheer persons” and it includes 2 canadian teams [flames and senators—though they are billed as more “team spirit” groups with men and women] and the Bruins and Blackhawks. i myself was shocked, but he said it was DEF the suthreners that brought the abomination to the NHL! we are vehemently anti-ice girl and prefer the Mites and PeeWee players they have performing those same tasks at Caps games : )
