Support team with positive energy

Another Silvertips season is here! Can’t wait for the excitement, the new players on both teams making their debut in our awesome arena, the amazement in the eyes of the children who attend the games and sit all around us.

I am hoping this year that our great fans might find a more positive way to express the opposing team coming back on the ice out of the penalty box than the current one of “And they still suck.” I think it is important to understand that negative energy that is put out there is negative energy for everyone — including our Tips — even when it is directed at the opposing team. It’s often a self-fulfilling prophecy. How about if we re-direct that energy to give our team the edge? Let’s send out positive energy — like quickly saying “Go Tips!” or how about, “Get ‘em, Tips!” Let’s show our wholehearted support by respecting all of our hockey kids from both teams. Go Tips!
