Last night was a tough loss for the Winter Hawks…I thought they played one of their best first periods of the season, outshooting the Americans 10-3 and creating scoring opportunities with speed through neutral ice, but the lack of finish showed again and Chet Pickard did enough to keep the puck out of the net.

Enterprise…A Day in Photo’s…
The team arrived in Kennewick about 6:30 this evening after a busy day in the small Northeastern Oregon town of Enterprise…a day that started very cold (-15 degrees fahrenheit in Enterprise on Monday night)…and ended with a lot of smiles and community goodwill.
This picture is of the Eagle Cap Chalet just off the shores of [...]
Tough Road Loss…
For forty five minutes last night, the Portland Winter Hawks and Seattle Thunderbirds were about as even as two teams could be. The final fifteen minutes of the second period was the difference as Seattle took advantage of some power play time to take a 2-1 lead and hold on for a 3-1 win.

Perspective is Everything…
It has been interesting to browse around the Internet and read the take on the escapades between the Lethbridge Hurricanes and Medicine Hat Tigers. Nothing like a little perceived showboating followed by a multi-fight scenario to rouse people up.
I’ve watched the video and it did appear that Kyle Beach taunted the Tigers a bit before he [...]
An Excursion to Enterprise…
The photo is of farmland just outside of Enterprise, OR, in the valley surrounded by the Wallowa Mountains.
The Portland Winter Hawks will be taking a side trip to Enterprise early next week to help instruct physical fitness courses at the local school and to run a practice on the outdoor rink in the middle of [...]
Monday Thoughts…
In a lot of ways, that was a weekend that I’d rather forget…two losses by more than three goals and trying to call two games while fighting a cold and a persistent cough. Thankfully, we have a few days off before heading North to the Hawks first game in the new ShoWare Center in Kent [...]
