Mason "Mad Dog" Cossette

The Revolution enforcer Mason Cossette got his first professional call up to the Flint Generals of the International Hockey League on Friday night. Mason played the entire game earning 19 minutes in penalties in his first Double A game of his career. Mason was returned to the Revolution in time for Saturday's game against the Shooters.

Revolution on TV

The Revolution hockey team will be starting to produce the first of many commercials that will start to air on local TV. The Rev's have been filming around the Revolution Arena over the past two weeks. When the camera is rolling be sure to smile as you may end up on a Revolution commercial.

Affi the Giant Slayer

Chris Affinati has been known not to back down back down from a challenge and this weekend he took on two big challenges. Affinati started it off by testing the 6'3" 240 lb Chase Tippin then if that wasn't enough he wanted to test out new Blizzard enforcer Marek "Krul" Jancek who is only 6'6" 225 lb. Some people may be asking if Affinati has a death wish or if he is crazy, but the fact is Affinati is a Golden Gloves boxer out of Chicago. Not many people will accept the challenges of the 5'8" 170 lb, which is why Affinati is always left to challenge the giants of the midway.
