Combinations - part 4


The Shot-Ski......


Inside "The Great German Beer Hall" in Milwaukee they have a Shot-Ski. What is that you ask? A ski with shot glasses attached. Ergo, all 5 guys must do their shot at the same time. Here Glen, Pete, Joe, Adam, and Chub all enjoy the bars version of Jagermeister!

Can I get a Boom- Deesh?!?!?!

Trivia question - # 1....

Q # 1: Who lead STEAMER in scoring during the 2006 Winter / Spring season?

Player Profile - # 7 - Frank Ingham

Name: Frank Ingham
Position: Wing / Defense
#: 7
Why: His alarming man-crush on John Elway.
Nickname: Shot Pimp; Bim; 42% Wood; Stink; Big Pimp; Frank the Tank; Ball Washer.
How we know him: Went to Drake University with our buddy Glen.
One scout said: His game is all about hustle. If he is playing with energy he is one of the best players on the ice. Very good, fast skater who is a versatile player able to play any position.
Game reminds you of: Dan Hinote - RW - St. Louis Blues.
Best line on the ice: "Takes one to know one." - to a player that called him a fag after words were exchanged with our bench.
You may not have known: Frank can beat anyone chugging a beer, or in a fight, if he gets them on the ground. Holds the STEAMER record for most time spent drying his junk after a game! Actually, Frank was an all-State swimmer at Regis. Although he was an hour late to the Awards Ceremony, he runs the CU Tailgate and the STEAMER Golf Tournament which are both smashing successes!
Thanks for: Being one of the originals who has helped hold the team together, always wanting to practice and get better, and being a great motivator in the lockerroom.

Trivia question - answer # 1....

Answer # 1: The young Jedi - Center - # 5 - Eric S. - with 20 points (11 goasl and 9 assists) in 11 games. Nice work E5!

Good luck!

To Defenseman Bill S. who will miss the first game of the Summer due to a "lower body injury." Let's just say that he will likely feel as helpless as he looks in this picture when he is lying on the table. We will have a beer and toast your boiled onions!

Trivia question # 2

Question # 2: What is the most amazing thing about the first goal in STEAMER history?
A. That the horrible skating lummox that scored it was able to one-time the pass?
B. That the set-up man actually passed the puck?
C. That STEAMER actually scored a goal?
D. All of the above?

Editorial # 7 - Drinking is fun, and....

....you never wear stupid hats when you do!

Trivia question # 3

Q # 3 : Who led STEAMER in penalty minutes last season?

Player Profile - # 11 - Brian Frost

Name: Brian Frost
Position: Right Wing
#: 11
Why: The number he has worn in every sport we have played with him / he's had it since he was a kid.
Nickname: Big Bizzness; Bizz; Pokey; Get Dizzzy with Big Bizzzy.
How we know him: Played in a band with Joe Q. and Axe, a friend Joe W.
One scout said: Excellent passer with good vision on the ice. Underrated shot with a knack for hitting posts.
Game reminds you of: Jozef Stumpel - C - Florida Panthers.
Best line on the ice: "It looks like old and fat is coming out strong tonight!" After he and Joe W. scored the first two goals in a game.
You may not have known: In his softball playing days he set a league record for 42 strides to make it the 60-feet to first base (picture Fred Flinstone running his car) and was nicknamed "Hydroelectric Lips" by Bud White that same season for constantly talking on the field. Has recorded three CDs: solo, with the Strugglers, and with Local Six.
Thanks for: Being a trooper and hanging for beers after the game and talking hockey X's and O's to help improve the team.

Trivia question - answer # 2....

D. All of the above.
Officially: Joe W. from Gordon R. on 09/29/02 in a 6-2 loss to COANG.

Other hockey venues....part 3...

The Voe, Chub Rock, The Tripod, and Chowdah supporting our hometown Pioneers (in spirit) at the Frozen Four in Milwaukee, WI -April 2006.

Trivia question - answer # 3....


Is # 16 - Pete Dunlaevy (despite Fred and Frank's 10-minute majors for fighting and 3rd man in, respectively). While often posing as a pacifist, this rogue winger has led the team in penalty minutes for 3 consecutive seasons. Not afraid to wear a peace button on his uniform and write "Born to Kill" on his white, dove-colored helmet, Pete never passes up a chance to retaliate as part of the duality of man! Bravo!
