Mitch O'Keefe signed and some other stuff

Looks like the Grizzlies did sign another goalie: Mitch O'Keefe. You can check out his stats on the ECHL.com website from the 08-09 season with the Elmira Jackals, and we might be able to get up some pictures of him at practice later - that is if we got any specifically of him.



You can check out the official press release at the Grizzlies site for additional details.

Also, the Grizzlies Live radio show is back starting tomorrow night at 7 pm. You can go down and check it out at Ruby Tuesdays live or listen in from home on 1230 KJQS. Colley, Snatch, and Li'l Corey (just kidding) - er, A.J. Perry are the scheduled guests.

*Re: our We Don't Get It post: If anyone knows why there's Hamburger Helper in that picture, let us know and we'll give you cred - we just can't remember when or why that occurred.

Grizz dropped both preseason games, but we're still looking to see how the team's going to shape up in the regular season. The n00bs are looking pretty good on the ice and we saw some good contributions from them in the preseason, so we're happy regardless of the losses.

Don't forget to check out all the Training Camp podcasts at the Grizzlies site. Some good stuff in there! Sounds like today's podcast was the last of the series.

And we have to give major props for the mini plans for tickets that the Grizzlies offer. This is an awesome idea if you don't already have season tickets. Check out the 12 and 6 packs: you're saving at the very least $12, which is the cost of an additional game - or two if you're a student. Or the cost of your snacks, chuck-a-pucks, or earplugs and asprin (yes, they do sell them at the E-Center). You get to pick which games you go to (so if you really hate Idaho or love Victoria, you can lock it in for every game) AND you don't have to wait in line and miss the face off. We've done this before and know exactly how damn annoying it is watching that first (and sometimes second) Grizzlies goal of the game on those tiny screens by the box office. Seriously, mini plans = awesome. Check them out.

PuckDaddy.com was all over this clip of Andy Sertich's new team scoring in the Croatian leagues. Nice goal, fun to see it getting some play.

That's all for now. Should have more pics and vids up from practice later.

Go Grizzlies!
