Old((ish), but not really) Hockey Pics...

As you all know, I discovered a fun way to make pictures oldish, it was fun, and I've been hanging out there a lot.  Just playing around with some of my hockey pictures.  Once again, you had to know this was coming, as is the case with all the other crazy stuff somehow it will all be hockey related at some point.  So here we go, my hockey pictures with more creative twist. Orrrr not. ;)

In Color... ...Hockey Night

Rick Nash and some guy not named Rick Nash

You had to know it would happen after I discovered that I really like pictures in both black and white and color, that eventually, I'd be wasting my time going through my hockey pictures and giving them the Pleasentville effect.  I started with that Kipper picture and slowly figured out how to make it look better.  Some have just the player in color, others have the lines from the ice, or the crease for the goalies in color as well.

Wings @ Wild or 1,120 Pictures of Nick Lidstrom

This was probably the most exciting 1-0 game I've ever seen.  Both teams had their moment of utter brilliance and whatever the opposite of that is.  The story of the game was the goaltending.  It was stellar on both sides.  And that is always something fun to watch.  I like going to Wings games, not that I have a burning love or anything, but I bit of respect and I adore some of their Swedes.  The majority of these pictures are going to be of the Red Wings warmup.  Why, cause I already have tons and tons of pictures of the home team.  And well, Nick Lidstrom.  Seriously.

I like taking faceoff pictures

There are a lot of Red Wings after the jump.  If this is not your thing.  Read it anyways.  We look at it, there really is not much reading involved.  But anyways Josh Harding was a rockstar,  Nick Lidstrom has such an amazing presence.

Hockey Afternoon... Wild/Red Wings!

 
I live in Minnesota, so I hardly ever get to see my Canucks play (sad face), but I do get to some pretty good hockey games usually with my sister.  We have a good time, we both like the wild, she (has poor taste in hockey teams, but for the most part underneath it all she is a wings fan).

I may or may not be in love with Nick Lidstrom

But I digress, about Christmas time, we got an email from our cousin (my twin) Jenny.  She and her husband wanted to know if we wanted to see a hockey game with them.  Naturally we said "yes!!!!!".  The game was about a week ago- we went to was the Red Wings V the Wild.  It was a brunch game, seriously it started at 11:30 am.  We had club level seats, awesome view.  And club level has like no lines.... Awesome!!

So it was Jenny and Jason's first live NHL game.  Jason is a flyers fan.  Jenny isn't much of a fan, but she had a blast.  She and I were in matching Koivu jerseys.  Mine is a white away and hers (my sister's) is a green third.  We felt it was fitting as we are twins.  The game was pretty exciting for a morning game.  Not gonna get into the nitty gritty of the game it was a good time.  Except the part where the wild lost in the shoot out.  That wasn't fun :(
