Hockey season started

So the hockey season finally started and despite administrative problems and players getting released do to financial problems, the Mighty Bulls have gotten off to a great start winning the first four games.
Here’s a slideshow from the latest home game. To the english readers/viewers I apologize for the audio being danish/swedish.

Game Seven on Tuesday

Mighty Bulls went on to win the next two games and had the lead 3-2 in games going into game 6 tonight. They lost 1-0 in a terribly boring game, so for the second year in a row it’ll have to be decided in a game seven between the same two teams as last year. [...]

Game2: Whitehawks 5, RMB 3

Yesterday was game two of the quarterfinals. Frederikshavn Whitehawks went ahead 3-0 by the end of the first period more or less deciding the game after 20 minutes. A second period rally made it exciting as Rodovre Mighty Bulls got within range and made it 3-2 by the end of the second. A fluke goal [...]

Game1: RMB 4, Whitehawks 3

Tomorrow it’s game two in Frederikshavn…. Hello looooong drive.
Here’s [...]

Playoffs start tomorrow!

I gotta be honest. I’m excited as hell. [...]

Shooting NHL hockey

Last week I was in Vancouver to cover the first potential meeting between two danish hockey players in the NHL. Unfortunately one of the guys suffered a pulled groin just days before I left so the odds was against me but I took the trip anyway. The guy didn’t get ready so I only got [...]

Hockey season around the corner

Yes indeed. It’s that time of year again. The time where I start flooding the blog with hockey photos for your pleasure. The Mighty Bulls have started their preseason games getting ready for game one of the 2008-2009 season, starting Friday September 12th.
Friday they hosted Troja/Ljungby, a team from the Swedish Allsvenskan division. A pretty [...]

Season’s over

I think this photo sums up everything.

Last chance

So the Mighty Bulls lost game 4 and are now down 3-1. I guess everything’s on the line Friday or the season will end way too soon. Here’s a gallery of photos from last night’s game.
