In honor of New York’s first shot at the Stanley Cup since ’94 and my good old Brooklyn roots, I’ve spent the majority of my weeknights this playoff season plopped in front of three or four unnecessarily large televisions at the bar across the street from my apartment (I don’t get NBC). My Ranger-fan friends believe strongly in ju-ju (urban dictionary: Gypsy word for luck).

Hockey and I have had a roller-coaster of a relationship over the years. Growing up in Colorado in the 1990s, the Colorado Avalanche came second ONLY to my beloved Denver Broncos. Yeah, it was a great time to be a Colorado sports fan; the Avs and Broncos were downright dominant in the mid-to-late 90s.

Why the USA Women’s Hockey Team is Awesome

When I was eight, my parents moved us from the San Francisco Bay Area to a small Colorado mountain town. Don’t ask me why, it’s a long story… Anyway, apparently, one day after we’d been in Colorado for a few months, I came home from school and announced, “Carlee’s dad is starting a girl’s hockey team and I’m going to play!” My parents were surprised to say the least.
