The NHL does it again. It takes the momentum the game achieves during the olympics turns it into something resembling the WWF. The vicious and premeditated hit on Brent Seabrook of the Chicago Blackhawks by James Wisniewski of the Anaheim Ducks was beyond sickening. Just once I’d love to see a team actually file attempted murder charges against one of these goons. Or put the culprit in a game like this and sell tickets to fans for a swing. Now that’s an idea to bring down Americas Trillion dollar debt.

And on to nAvember…

There’s nothing more that can be said about the start the Avalanche have had so far this season. They set a franchise record last night for the number of wins in October. So this cartoon was a natural. I’m hoping the Avs can keep it up. I love drawing hockey.

Stay safe out there. The snow that Colorado is enjoying is a bit slippery you know.

NHL and The Colorado Avalanche

It’s never too early to start hoping. The Avs have started quickly and look much improved. Enough to make the playoffs and a run to the Cup? Let’s catch the fever before it’s too late. I love doing NHL cartoons because Hockey fans are the most loyal in all of sports. And Avalanche fans are even better.

Here, by special request, is my Salute to Super Joe Sakic. Joe, it’s been an honor to draw you, Sir. And thanks to all the readers who encouraged me to draw this. It needed to be done.

Today I’m on Andrew Hudson’s Jobs List site with a special cartoon created just for his site. It will be about job hunting and should be great fun. Andrew also did a really nice write-up about me as well. Thanks, Andrew! Andrew Hudson was the former Press Secretary to Denver Mayor Wellington Webb, and one heck of a jazz musician. If your are in the job market, there simply is no better site than Andrew’s. See it by clicking on http://andrewhudsonsjobslist.com

Sakic was special
Here’s my favorite cartoon featuring Joe Sakic, done right after the Avalanche won their first Stanley Cup. I love the fact that it contains both Sakic and Elway.
