Change.....

This is a year of change……….

The financial meltdown has meant changes at work and changes to my personal finances. At the rink, with call ups and returns and losses to the waiver wire, you never know who’ll you see at the Ricoh in a Marlies jersey. Changes to the Marlies as part of an “edgy” new look and feel, talk of new jerseys, and with talk of even more changes, the only thing that seems to be staying the same are Marlies ticket prices!

Over the weekend, I went from a real high at the game at Copps (thanks to all who made it out with the DDP crew and I for one will never look at a goalie’s glove the same ever again!) where we won 7-1, to a real low…..a loss to the Griffins and a question lingering over the rink…..will Tlusty and Stralman go, and who will be called up after the ice chips from Wednesday’s trade deadline clears. As I gear up for Tuesday’s Leafs/Devils game (it’s DDP night at the ACC!), it will be even stranger as you know players like Kaberle and Antropov are likely on their way our, and that players like Staal and Tangradi suddenly be Leafs.

If there is one thing for sure, we are in for a very interesting week and the DDP crew will be with you on Wednesday all day as part of our Trade Deadline up-to-the-minute update blog by DDP co-founder Eric Ognjanovic. Don’t get your jerseys crested until Thursday at the earliest!

GO MARLIES GO!!!
