So far we’ve sold 2 tickets to our Adult League night at the Stars game with drinks and dinner. Soooooo, I’m going to release everything for the March 26th game, and I will hold 100 seats for the April 2nd game until Monday (3/23). We’ll have to make the call on Monday to scrap the whole thing or move forward with it so we can coordinate the food and drink part. As long as we have at least 20 people signed up, we can proceed…so we need 18 more people signed up by Monday or we’ll kill it and try something similar next year.
Any help you can provide as a final push would be greatly appreciated. I’ve updated the original flyer and attached here in case you need it again. Thanks!

Alexander Ovechkin has only one thing going against him in my book- his English ain't that great. Other than that he is probably my favorite non-goalie in the league. He can skate around you or through you, shoot for accuracy or power (usually both), and he is entertaining. Alex scored his fiftieth goal of the regular season in the first period of the game against Tampa and celebrated this feat by warming his hands over his hot stick. Maybe he hasn't done much in the playoffs, but this is his third consecutive fifty goal season, and everyone seemed to adore his theatrics in the shoot-out competition, if you ask me it is just the antics of a charismatic player trying to make the most of his time in the sun. Besides, he is the reigning Hart trophy winner, who can really complain about his bringing attention to himself- who is more deserving?
Nobody made a stink when Brodeur celebrated his passing Patrick Roy in carrer wins. It was great to see him jumping up and skating around with the net in one hand and the puck in the other. You might say it was different because it occured after the game instead of during play in the first, I don't see that. Both are milestone experiences, Brodeur's is quite a bit more rare than Ovechkin's but he's not celebrating every goal in this pre-meditated way, now that would be ridiculous. Let the players enjoy the moment. Let the personalities shine through.
Just my opinion, I am partial to a little showmanship, myself. . . I certainly don't have the talent to back it up, but if you're not having fun, why play the game?

I don't understand how Cherry, as egomaniacal and flamboyant as he his, can call someone out for trying to make a show out of their personality.

If by "cartwheel" you mean "header," then yeah.
I thought he was having a seizure...oh...that was a cartwheel..that was terrible. Nice goals though...for a goalie!
haha, cartwheel, header, seizure, with a guy that uses neon green laces who really knows.
Whatever, Ovechkin's terrible English is the BEST. Watch this and try to tell me that his broken English isn't totally adorable and hilarious.

Ovechkin should be rich enough to buy furniture for the house he is living in. Check out the pie in the face video.

I just looked it up- are you talking about the one where he is dancing around and scratching his arm while singing? Priceless. Anyone who sits around on the bench at the all star game with a giant bag of potato chips is okay with me.
