Fresh Goat-O-Meter!

Things are picking up fast again, and we had to get that fresh goat-o-meter up! We are currently sitting at 48 goats, and we set the bar high at 500 again this year. Hopefully we get to see that meter fill up quick during this second round! Thanks again for all of your support, GOAT CANUCKS GOAT!

Derek Jory from Canucks.com has written an unreal article about us. Thanks so much Derek, this is huge!

An Excerpt:

“When Joel Nagtegaal was a small fry whipping around the neighborhood with a hockey stick, his dad taught him an important lesson that really stuck.

Nagtegaal, a student at the University of the Frasier Valley, and a few buddies from his roller-hockey team were sitting around a few weeks ago mulling over who would grow the meanest playoff beard.
