Lance Monych

dutchman — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 15:29:44 GMT

Hello Thunderfans!

I have a question for all of you. Can you please give me your opinion about Lance Monych? He will be playing for our team coming season.

Im a Tilburg Trappersfan (Holland). Mike Lalonde played for us last year. He was awesome! How is Monych compared to Lalonde?

I can find stats of him online, but not any comments.....

thank you!

How do you promote the Thunder?

gothunda — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 15:58:55 GMT

I was wondering how Thunder fans promote the team during the off season? Window stickers in there cars,lic. plate holders, shirts, jackets,hats, etc ? And do you take the time to talk to people that are curious about the team ? Word of mouth is the best way to fill the arena this next season. So, how do you promote the team ? Ed [Go Thunda]

interesting information on possible goalie

JUST-A-FAN — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 05:30:41 GMT

just found this on oilers site.

Bryan Pitton -- The 20-year-old is coming off another solid season with the Brampton Batallion of the Ontario Hockey League, where he went 22-13-2 with a 2.54 GAA and a .911 save percentage. The Oilers' fifth-round selection (No. 133) in 2006 is headed to Stockton of the ECHL for 2008-09 as the Thunder's No. 1 goalie.

"He's come a long way," Prendergast said. "He's signed and he'll be the No. 1 goalie in Stockton this year. He's very ...

Wow

Payback — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 01:56:03 GMT

For those fans who were involved with Shawn Stockwell ,the young Aces fan who you met and helped out at one of the Aces/Thunder games, I thought you might want to know that he received a new heart today!

Prayers go out to the donor family who were strong enough to donate the heart, which will hopefully mean that after being at the Ronald McDonald House for over two years Shawn may be home for Christmas.

Here's hoping all goes well with Shawn's recovery, and thanks to all the Thunder ...

Hey Thunder Fans!

O'D_Fan — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 06:38:20 GMT

Hey Thunder Fans! Just wanted to drop in and say 'HI!!' Signings are already under way for us and I see you guys are getting LaLonde back! I am actually excited about that because LaLaonde is a great player and even I noticed his missing presence this last season.

How's the summer treating you all? (except for the heat factor)

Thunder Fans !!!

Leona — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 07:24:53 GMT

We have been asked by Sport Services at Stockton Arena to host a tailgate party on July 26th at the Arena for the ELITE XC **Saturday Night Fights** . This is going to be a major event for Stockton as the fights are going to be on CBS and Showtime !! Also they added 2 women fighters.

We will need to work for about 2 hours at the tailgate. This means more money for our Hockey Team!!!

3 people are needed. If you are available that day please e-mail me at president@thunderhockeyboosterclub.com ...

Players Going Over Seas

Leona — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 23:08:13 GMT

This is a list of players that have signed to go over seas. I am sure there will be more to come. I received this in an e-mail and was told this is just the beginning and most likely more will be signing. That doesn't mean more from just the Thunder. It's means all teams.

Need anyone who's willing to help

Pinkbadge — Sun, 29 Jun 2008 14:07:52 GMT

Hey everyone,

I'm in a huge dilemma. I was laid off about six months ago and still haven't found another job. After struggling for months trying to pay my car payment, I finally broke down and asked my lender to pick it up. That was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do, but I had to set priorities and those were rent, food, pg&e, water, etc. Thank God my season tickets were already paid for prior to my lay off, otherwise I'd have to give those up too. Now I'm thinking well, ...

puppy

tim.oconnell@hotmail.com — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 06:52:06 GMT

Hey everyone. My girlfriend and I are wondering if anyone is interested in watching our 11-month old puppy. She is a loving and playfull 70 pound yellow lab. We have a place where we have boarded her, but she does not like it very much. We are leaving on July 2nd (Wednesday) and will be back on Monday (July 7th). She is still very much a puppy (she might dig, she eats remote controls...has eaten 10 so far)...but she is a lot of fun to play with and take for walks, loves children, and is good ...

Please Help Stocktons Fire Victims

Leona — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 04:52:43 GMT

The Thunder Hockey Booster Club is challenging all members to donate $5.00 or more per touch down this week during Stockton Lightnings football game. Our community of Stockton has supported both our Hockey team and Football team. We know this by the crowds Stockton Thunder draws. Now it's our turn to give back. We realize things are rough all over for everyone, but it's a lot rougher for those people who have no homes.

Please have a heart and donate anything that you can ! Please e-mail bboyes@stocktonarena.com ...

Protected Players List

kitty_witty — Fri, 30 May 2008 22:26:30 GMT

Alright there are only a few days left until our team has to submit the protected players list so who does everyone think we should be keeping on there?

my number one choice is of course Shwartz should he choose to continue playing hockey next year and wait on law school.

Stanley Cup

kitty_witty — Fri, 30 May 2008 22:23:11 GMT

Alright no one seems to be talking any hockey now, whats up with that? Anyway the stanley cup is going on right now which is just a great thing to watch, some of the best hockey you can see. I want to know who everyone wants to win.

For those of you who are "thunder fans" and not hockey fans I will catch you up. Its the Detroit Red Wings vs the Pittsburgh Penguins! There have been 3 games played and the standings so far in the series are: Red Wings 2 games and Penguins 1 game. ...

HELP!!!!!!!!!

Mrs Go Thunda — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 16:48:57 GMT

We need to get a list started of people who can HELP us raise some money for our team and our booster club!! We are looking for people who would be willing to help out at a Ports game this summer in one of the concession stands. Please let me know if you can help out. We are going to be needed for 10 games. For info you can pm me or email me. Barb gothunda@comcast.net Thanks

Assistant Coach

kitty_witty — Fri, 30 May 2008 22:29:10 GMT

As we probably all know by now the Thunder will be having an assistant coach next year, which I think is awesome. Does anyone have any idea who they think should help our team out and lend their experience to our coaching staff?

I give my vote to O'Connell! I think he would be a great coaching asset to our team and the fans would love to see him standing behind our players every game.

Bonnie and I would like to thank everyone so very much! I shared with you our situation, and in true Thunder fan style, people were quick to jump in to offer their help. You helped us when we truly needed it, and I can't begin to tell you how much the outpouring of support has meant to us! Each of you know who you are, and you will always mean a lot to us. Thank you again for all of support and generosity these last two years. You are truly the BEST FANS IN THE LEAGUE!

I wanted to give you all a great opportunity to purchase my game worn home jersey while helping me out. As you all may have heard, 2 airlines recently filed for bankruptcy; Aloha and ATA Airlines.

BrandonSchwartz7 — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 17:56:17 GMT

Hey guys. I too would like to thank all of the fans for a great season and all of the support. The fan support that we got every night was amazing, along with the fans who would wait after every game for an autograph, handshake, or hug. You guys made my year in Stockton memorable, and made my decision for next year very hard. No decisions have been made yet, but last year it was a sure thing that I was going to law school and now I have a very hard decision to make.

I, like Beeker, am going ...

It's that time again to sit and wait and watch the websites to see who we will protect and who we will get next year to play on our team. The saddest part was the phone calls from the guys leaving and knowing I may never see some of them again. So now we need to pack up the houses and get the things ready for next season. If anyone wants to help us on Wednesday please call me. We have one day to get this done. Here is a chance for everyone to help. Unfortunatly being a booster members means ...
