2 of the top teams in Canada played an emotional and exciting game in Mississauga on the evening of Dec 10.
Windsor arrived late due to traffic, but once they hit the ice, everyone knew this would be a great night of hockey.
Taylor Hall showed why he is considered to be the 2010 NHL draft first overall pick throughout the game. His World Junior Teammate Ryan Ellis also played up to his #11 overall draft position from the 2009 NHL draft.

Real Salt Lake….. I feel like I could say stuff, but it would likely offend people and their families…
TFC at home on the last regular season game to be played on the carpet.
A TIFO of legend for the great Danny Dichio.
Like the previous week in the friendly home of BMO Field, the Reds put one in at the start of the second half.
That was all they needed to get the 3 points that kept them in the playoff race.
To understand what needs to happen for them to earn a …

Oshawa Generals hosted the Kingston Frontenacs over Thanksgiving weekend… the hospitality did not extend to the ice.
The Gens were up 4-0 after 2 periods and finished the game with a 7-2 victory.
The turkey may have slowed down the Frontenacs, but even a smaller amount if tryptophan would have been needed to give them the jump they would have required to get past the Oshawa team.

Most win games seem to be the flavour of the season at BMO Field.
This was the case on Saturday, but San Jose was able to even the score in the 93rd minute to keep the Reds from earning the full 3 points at home.

The playoff hopes are still alive!!
The first game without Danny Dichio as a player and the youth had a chance to stand up and prove they can take the lead on the field.
Toronto FC gets a 3-2 victory at home and maintain their path to a playoff position.
Next game, we will see de Guzman… It is like Team Canada!!
DeRo, AliG, Brennan, de Guzman, Young Nana, Serioux!!

Shots from the game….

Second game of the pre-season, rematch from the earlier evening.
A youth movement with the Bulls rebuilding after a few years as the class of the east, the Frontenacs are expected to compete for first place in the OHL east.
At this time of the pre-season, you have players at NHL camps, lot of prospects, draft picks and the games provide the team management to watch the players in an OHL game situation and evaluate their future.
In the end, it was a 4-2 Belleville victory, with a good showing by the Bulls …

TFC losing to a team that looked to have an average age of 19 - I don’t want to talk about it.
A loss at home to River Plate…. that is fine, as long as the team comes out strong for Columbus and Puerto Rico next week.

This was a collection that I put together in about 30 hours.
I had the idea to portray Queen St in a series of 5 images, but knew that would be next to impossible, so the idea of a series came out of it….
I will get back to the breakdown, but for now, here are the images.
The Queen Street Collection

Decided to play around with some macro images and this is what I came up with today.
Really like some of the colours in the flowers and might use some of images around the house.
