Whale of a Blog
A few months ago the Vancouver Canucks revamped their site. They made it a pretty blue and white, incorporated this years theme ‘we are all Canucks‘ and added several new features. They’ve also ramped up the blogging, which players have been doing for the last 2 years. The ‘fan’ section of the site includes Fan Blog and Player Blog where most anyone can comment.
Something new this month, actually within the last couple of days, is Fin’s Blog. Yes, the team’s mascot, a big orca that blows steam out it’s head is blogging. Just what could a whale possibly blog about? Well his experience at the All Star game, of course.
“I had a busy Tuesday starting in the morning where I was joined with 3 other mascots, Carlton from Toronto, Sparky from New York Islanders, and Howler from Phoenix…”
“…Later in the day all the mascots attended the Red Carpet Ceremony. It was like a page out of Hollywood where the players had to walk through a carpeted plaza outdoors and signed autographs for the fans. Check it out on NHL.com…you will even see me. Roberto even came over and gave me a high fin! I saw Joe Sakic accompanied with his 2 boys. Joe told me his kids had Canuck jerseys at home….COOL!…” [FinsBlog]
