It was a good match. These teams are the two top teams in the Norwegian Hockey League. Last time they met Stavanger Oilers won 9-3 over Vålerenga and this time Vålerenga won 5-1.
Hockey is back again here in the States. My home team, The Pittsburgh Penguins won their first game and lost the second. But that’s Ok, they are back. Glad your team won. Great action photos.
I love ice-hockey – not that I get to watch any anymore. But many years ago when I lived in Canada I played for the local ladies village team. It was hilarious, and I can tell you a hockey stick is a great aid to
keeping you upright if you’re not a fantastic skater! Great shots CG, and brings back great memories! 🙂
For the team followers it’s a treat,I suppose!

Thank you for explaining me something new…!

BE ENCOURAGED! BE BLESSED!
Pittsburgh Penguins is also the home team of Bob (a friend of mine). Go Penguins!

Yes, the stick is great for balancing. I’ve never played on a team, only in the park.
I love hockey, and am a fan of any good game! You’ve done a nice job freezing the action.
Superb action shots, Cardinal! Is there anything you can’t shoot? Very impressive.
I am not familiar but I do really wonder what the A with the little circle over it sounds like : )
I found a site with the pronounciation of Å in Danish, Norwegian, Swedish and Finnish: http://www.forvo.com/word/%C3%A5/
Thank you- I will listen as I am vastly curious about such things, especially language!
What a great site- I book marked it!
If your home team is in the white and blue, it’s impressive that they use the same colours as Gretzky’s old team the Edmonton Oilers.
Yes, my local team is the red, white and blue.
Ice-hokey is very popular in my town too… and I live just at 2 min distance from Sports Hall, so I can hear them all the time 😉 Great photos, CG!
Thanks. Did you ever go to see a match? I’ve been to a handful of matches my whole life, so I’m not exactly a regular..
I don’t watch matches, hubby neither … We don’t watch, and we try not to hear them either ….. 😛
