The Afterglow

Like the rock star he is, Chris Jerina comes at us with photos from last night. Here's the full set and some teasers:

Who's your daddy? Dimples getting his #1 star. Again.

Kolanos, possibly his goal scoring shot?

All photos: Chris Jerina
-----------------

And just to keep you caught up on the truly important news, Matt Kassian won the Beard Off going on over at the Aeros site. I think that hawt mohawk was cheating a little.
--------------------

And finally, a little media recap with reaction and looking forward to the next series:
NEW
And just as a bonus, here's Milwaukee, still stinging from the upset.

I'll add others as they come out.

Ms. C, indeed that is Krys's goal.

I gotta thank the Ads SS guys for helping me with a new (slightly lower) vantage point. Unfortunately, the dirtiness of the glass was worse than I though, resulting in a number of pics alot blurrier than I would like (e.g. Kolanos' celebration).

Chris jumped in already with his comment.
From us here a BIG thanks to you for the photos. Almost as good as being there.
KK's victory jump is becoming his trade mark.
And Stoner's expression is priceless.
Can anyone find a fellow photographer to record the next games up in Winnipeg AND blog them for all of us here to enjoy?

And how sick could Matt Kassian's facial adornment get? I still like Lammer's and Stoner's plus Beaudoin's...ah well, they all looked rakish!

Chris is going to be in Winnie for the first 2 games, so we're working on a press pass for him.

I think Beaud's ended up being my favorite.

Well, OF COURSE, so did I, but Kassian's was kinda cute to start with -- that cowlick on his side..

Oh, wonderful... more pix from Chris...am sooo ready for more of the celebrations!

Chris Jerina said...

Don't worry BTB, I was gonna post again before heading out tomorrow!

Indeed, I'll be at Games 1/2. Hopefully I can get some pics for you guys, although it will only happen thanks to T3I. MTS Centre doesn't allow cameras except for media, so we'll see. Either way, I hope to get a recap of each game for you guys.

I'll be at the hotel w/ the players, so even if I cant bring my camera to the game, hopefully I can get some shots of the beards as the players eat breakfast (or something...)

For the record, I still haven't shaved my beard (err, of what I can grow!). And I'll have my Ryan Jones Aeros jersey in tote to avoid any confusion of who I'm cheering for ;-)

Go Aeros!
