Can I Get An A(wo)men?!?
It will be a professional hockey first when the Cincinnati Cyclones use an all-female off-ice officiating crew for their inaugural “Pink In The Rink” game on Friday.
The women, who have been training throughout the season at Cyclones games, will operate the game clock and record game statistics while also working as goal judges and penalty box attendants.
The all-female off-ice crew is the idea of Cyclones off-ice official supervisor Tim O’Shea, who has survived two bouts with cancer. Cancer has affected the lives of eight of the 25 women scheduled to work the game, including six who have lost a loved one to the disease and another whose husband has had eight surgeries to remove tumors and growths.
The ice at U.S. Bank Arena will be pink and the Cyclones will wear special pink jerseys that will be auctioned following the game with proceeds benefiting the Patty Brisben Foundation for women’s health issues.
Cincinnati won the game 6-2 in front of 2654.

That is a great idea. My team is playing a mens team to raise money for brest cancer on the 22nd also.

Wow, that sounds awesome!! Our team wore pink jerseys for the entire month of October then auctioned them off, but I really like the idea of the female crew and colored ice.

Colored ice? That's an awesome idea! Kind of like the blue turf in Boise.
Bonus points for Haley for mentioning the shocker.

Will they make the puck glow? And will it change color if you shoot it fast?
Okay seriously, a nice promotion but, pink ice may be going too far. Making the blue ice pink for the game would work though.

That's pretty cool. I am down with anything that supports Cancer research. I also like the slogan "Pink in the rink"......reminds me of a dirty saying for the "shocker"...........yeah I am not going to go there.
