Hey ladies! I'm a new transplant from the Canes boards (and pretty new over there too!). If you don't like me you'll have to blame mscanesgirl since she pointed me in this direction ;D I feel silly starting my own thread, but I don't feel right hijacking one of the other intro threads..... so here goes. I'm Mary, I'm from Chicago and have become reacquainted with the Canes after you stole "acquired" Ruutu from the Blackhawks. I'm a HUGE hockey fan. As far back as I can remember I've had the Blackhawks in my life. Of course being a long time Hawks fan I'm used to not having much to cheer for, so I'm definitely familiar with and have followed a few other teams over the years. I used to follow the Canes pretty closely before the lock out so I definitely welcome this chance to get to know the team again, especially since my boy Ruutu is there. My biggest past time lately is taking photos. I used to do only concert photography, but last season decided to experiment with hockey photography. Boy what a completely different animal that is! I'll poke around here and see where is the best place to share some of my photos I've taken. If you guys are really that ambitious, you can take a look at them here. We've got some nice eye candy here in Chicago. (even though my favorite is now gone now)Anyway, I just wanted to formally say hello!

Welcome to our board!!! I was the one that invited you and thrilled to see you took up the invitation... poke around in here and take your time.. we have many threads.. not just one specific to pictures... we have a thread devoted completely to "butt" pictures... and we have alot of individual threads for forwards, defensemen and goalies. I think your Ruutu has his own thread by the way.. lol... I for one am thrilled to have him and think he is going to be an awesome and I hope long time addition to our team.. you will find (if you can manage to visit) that our arena and our fans are some of the best you will find. I know your sad that you lost your Ruutu... but I promise we will take good care of him here!!!!

Hey there, Maryo! Welcome to the group and always great to have another hockey lady in the mix. Ruutu is quite the warrior! There was a wallpaper of him on the Canes site (http://cdn.nhl.com/hurricanes/ext/wallpaper/022808NYR_1024.jpg) that was taken after he'd returned from that nasty injury he received on his first night with the Canes. Talk about a trooper! You're from Chicago? Sweet! Though I'm a Caniac and the Canes are my favorite team, Khabibulin is my fave. He's such a sweetie. Looking forward to seeing any pix you care to offer for show, especially any that involve a certain Russian goalie

I'm confident you girls will take care of him from here on out. I'll have to dig through my folders and see how many more of Khabi I can come up with. I know I have a ton of Lalime (just because he holds still longer.. Khabi doesn't pose) but I'm sure I can find a few of your boy for you. And if not, I'm going to six or seven more games this season so I'll make a point to get more shots of him Thanks for the welcome, gals!

Hi Mary...I'm Tracy (one of the token Lightning girls here). I defected when John Grahame went to Carolina...and well, I was born there myself so I should show them a little love anyway. There is much to be seen here, and by all means share pictures if you have them. Ruutu is quite the cutie and I enjoy watching him play. Maybe he can teach the guys how to lay a hit on someone. ;D

Welcome aboard. Nice to see you finally got your account working. I'm Melinda (Mel for short if you want), and I'm one of the admins of the board. I'm prone to changing CTs as well, so be on the lookout. Hope you like it here.

Hi Maryo! I'm Ellie, I'm the root administrator of the board, Mel is my cohort in crime. We're glad to have another lady to add to the mix, there can never be too many CanesGirls! =D
FYI, you can change your display name to pretty much anything you like, and as you fall into a rythm here you might do that pretty often. :-) Mel likes to give out CTs based on posts, so if you post something outrageously funny, expect to find a variation of it up there under your name the next day. =D
I ope you have a great time here. Jump on in. ;-)

Forgot to mention that I've got a real name (slaps hand to forehead). It's Debbie or Deb. Can't say that pictures of Lalime are a bad thing either. He's quite a charmer with that dark hair. but I'm a Khabi fan, even though my jersey has Brind'amour on it (and I loves my jersey!). Got several shots of him and a Bulin Wall poster up in my office from his Tampa Bay days. Sigh. So what was it that attracted you to Ruutu... aside from his booty?

Hi I'm Kathy, another Lightning gal on here and like Tracy I followed Grahame to the Canes. I do try to follow other past Lightning players like Khabi and Brad Richards (now with Dallas). Dang, a copy of others I am trying to follow now play with the Flyers (Prospal), Atlanta (Perrin), and Ottawa (Stillman). Hope you enjoy your stay.

Hi Mary, I'm Liz. I am a transplanted Flyers fan from Philly that became a Canes fan in 2004 when they traded Justin Williams to the team. I still like my Flyers and the Hawks have another one of my old favorites- Patrick Sharp. I was upset when he was traded, also like Michael Handzus, but he is no longer on your team either. The Blackhawks are doing good this year with all the young draft picks, good for them. Any pictures of Patrick Sharp would be wonderful, even though Ellie said once that he scares her...lol. Welcome! Hope to talk to you soon.

Welcome aboard, Mary! I'm Jan, a fan of the Ducks, the Kings, the Canes, and the Sens. Even though I ogle plenty of guys in the league and am especially besotted (check out that word in your dictionaries, ladies ) by goaltenders, I have two main faves in the league, featured below in their respective order of "favitude": 1) Martin Gerber, the Senators' number-one guy in net (or, at least, he SHOULD be), and the gentleman featured in my avatar. Like everyone else, I follow my fave wherever he goes, and Carolina was my No. 1's second stop: www.nhl.com/nhl/app/?service=page&page=PlayerDetail&playerId=8469675You'd better believe I was over the moon when I had the chance to see Gerbs, once again, in Raleigh two years ago! 2) Martin Lapointe, also with Ottawa: www.nhl.com/nhl/app/?service=page&page=PlayerDetail&playerId=8458524So, yes, if you're ever interested in finding out more about those two lovelies who grace the ice, don't hesitate to ask me! ;D And, again, welcome to CanesGirls ... and be prepared to have a terrific stay here! Jan/GSBG

How in the world did I miss this thread???
Welcome to CanesGirls, Mary. I'm 300section on both this & the main 'Canes boards, & I'm fairly well-known on both...whether it be for better or worse, well, that remains to be seen, lol.
