My name is Matt and I am the Administrator and Founder of Mallards Mayhem / Hockey Mayhem.
I currently live about 30 mins South of the Quad Cities out in the Country. I am big into Music, XBOX, and Movies.
I usually am trying to keep the peace between everyone and doing my Best to keep everyone happy here. I work very close with all the mods to add things to the board to make this and even better place to enjoy. I work very hard everyday to get the most recent Hockey information out there to everyone. I also work extremely hard to find us all of the best Hockey Fight Clips available.
I don't have any real skills in life. I am pretty good with working with computers though I guess.
As for sports here are my favorites:
Don't really watch any other sports. Used to be an Orlando Magic and Anfernee "Penny" Hardaway fan.
If you ever need any help with anything feel free to get in touch with by sending me a PM or e-mailing me. I will do my best to either help you or point you in the right direction. I am on the board M-F, 9-4. On at nights sometimes and on during the weekends sometimes. I hope that you enjoy the board and have a good time chit chatting with other members of the board.

My real name is Justin but all my life people really do call me Buck. I am a proud Global Mod of HM. I am married and live in Bloomington, Il. We have no kids yet just a dog that we treat like a kid. I recently started working in Peoria Illinois as a Marketing Manager.
I have been a hockey fan for approx. 6 or 7 years. I went to a Peoria Rivermen game an saw a 5 on 5 fight that got me hooked. I used to be a Rivermen season ticket holder and make the 45 minute drive every game. That is why I was extremly excited when Bloomington got a team of our very own. But now that I am working in Peoria I will probably go back to watching some Rivermen games mixed in with the Thunder Games that I cant miss.
My favorite Sports Teams are:
Hockey
Prairie Thunder (IHL)
Rivermen(AHL)
Blackhawks (NHL)
Football
Bears (NHL)
Michigan (college)
Baseball
(Chi. Cubs)
I truly enjoy being a Mod on this board, to see how HM has evoloved and to talk to the diverse group of fans on here make the board a very exciting place to discuss hockey. I look forward to talkin it up with all of you.

Well for starters..I am THUNDERCHIC, AKA Joy.
I love Bloomington Prairie Thunder and I am Thunder Struk's Chic,
Hence THUNDERCHIC.
There are 6 kids in our house hold. 16, 15, 12, 11, 6 and 4. So at times if I seem a little frazzled, that may explain it.
We live 2 mintues from the Coliseum
Alot of our lives revolve around Hockey. As we are PT Boosters and I write the Booster News Letter. We are very involved since we have a team in our town now.
Teams:
NCAA-Michigan( football)
NFL- Carolina, but also a life long Bears fan..thank you Grandma!
Baseball- Cubs
IHL- Prairie Thunder
NHL- Chicago and of course the Sharks
Love to watch stock car racing and demo derbies, but dont get to them much any more. Like snowboarding, to watch..never do it.
There are a few more but you get the gist of it.
Love scarey/Horror movies...TS watches but would choose not to if I did not want to. We are big movie watchers..at home though.
Many kinds of music and have been getting more into reading. As an adult I have really gotten into Stephen King books.

Some one wants to know about ME? this has never happened before, and I have no clue what to say..
My real name is Matt, I have lived in Belvidere my whole life (sad but true) I'm also HogFan on the Hogs board, and ahlboards I tried to get that name here, but it was taken, so I decided on BrdMan98 cuz of my '98 Firebird.
Hobbies, mostly photography, I usually take a camera with me everywhere, and people hate me for it, or at least look at me weird.. If you ever want to feel like a weirdo, start carrying a camera with you.. ha ha.. I have some of my pictures posted HERE It is a mess now, but I am slowly organizing it, and have some hot air balloon pictures to add to the mix.
Other than photography, love watching the Hogs play, got hooked on it their second year in Rockford, when I tagged along with a friend to a game. Love the atmosphere, the heckling, and the chants, and will be GREATLY upset if they go away now that we are in the AHL. I hang out on here too, but don't post a whole lot, simply because I don't know nearly as much about the game as everyone else on here, so I stick to the no brainer topics..
My friend owns a production company, and I help him tape the Raptors game, and we got to tag along with the team when they played the Extreme, which was pretty cool.
Fave teams would pretty much be the Hogs I can't stand baseball that much, just not enough yelling, but I will go to a Riverhawks game every now and then. I stopped watching basketball when it became a group of over rated high school kids... I root for the Bears, but knew they weren't going to win the SB last year because they still lack a decent QB, and they insist on passing the ball for 2 yards on 3rd and 7...
Guess that's about all.. If you need anything, or have any questions, comments, or concerns, feel free to PM a mod on this board, cuz I won't be able to help you with shit...

My name is Jeff I'm 22 from St. Louis Missouri
I am a professional mascot working his way up to the NHL
The Teams/Companies I have worked for in the last 2 years include..
Missouri River Otters (United Hockey League)
DARE Program
Six Flags St. Louis (2006 Best In Park Character Award)
St. Louis Bandits (North American Hockey League) (2007 Robertson Cup Champs)
Bloomington Prairie Thunder (United Hockey League)
River City Rascals (Frontier League)
My favorite Hockey team is of course the St. Louis Blues and it is my dream to one day hoist the Stanley Cup with the St. Louis Blues as a Mascot
Currently I'm hanging out with a former co-worker who was also the Mascot for the River Otters (I was his backup on ice and primary community mascot) So we have been having a lot of fun sharing stories from the past.
I've been a fan of hockey since I was 7 or 8 years old and have been playing on teams since I was 11. I never once thought when I was a kid I would want to be a mascot. I always wanted to be a commentator since I was always commentating any hockey video game I was playing.
I'm a pretty crazy guy I'll do anything if I think someone will think it's funny or crazy.
Most people on here will know me as the Mascot for the Thunder. Just a neat little trivia fact for everyone.
The final total milage for the last season came out to Aprox 13,680 miles or 4 and a half oil changes and a new car. About $1,000 in gas..

Me in a Nut Shell:
Hello everyone, my name is Jennifer, but everyone calls me Jenn. I am 22 years old and I hail from the beautiful city of Elmira, NY. I am short, only about 5 feet 4 inches lol I am a fun loving, crazy person. Yet, at times I tend to have a shy side. Most people haven¡¦t seen my crazy side unless you go to a game with me or a close friend. I am very reserved and at times way to nice to people.
I have many passions in Life some include:
„« Hockey
„« Baseball (Minor league and colligate teams only)
„« Working with children
„« Writing (poems and children¡¦s works)
„« Animals ( including my 2 dogs, dolphins, and horses)
„« And being your typical female
I have 2 dogs and they are my life. They are both Yorkshire Terriers. We have ¡§Baby¡¨, he is our oldest at 10. Then you have the 3 year old puppy ¡§Teddy Bear¡¨. They are the best dogs ever.
I am currently taking a break from my education. I just completed my sophomore year at Elmira College. I was studying to be a teacher. If you don¡¦t know Many Jackals have called the college home, Randy Murphy, Dean Jackson, Josh Piro, Jarrett Konkle, Craig MacDonald, and Chris Mann to name a few.
I love to write. I have been writing stories and such every since I can remember. During my High school years I began writing poetry. Today I have a collection of over 100 poems that I have written. I am working on my first children¡¦s story and hope someday to have it published. I also love photography... thank goodness for my digital camera our I would be paying a fortune in processing them. I average about 100+ pictures a game home and away it is much, much more. I also love scrapbooking. As a "thank you for playing in Elmira" guesture, I tend to make one special player a scrapbook or articles and photos from the season. Just my way of saying thank you.
As you can probably tell by now I follow the Elmira Jackals. We are currently starting a brand new booster club and I hope to become the secretary, but if not I will still be happy. I love hockey. I have watched hockey since I was little starting with the Elmira College Hockey teams and then in 2003 started following the Jackals. Last year was my third year as a season ticket holder. I love random last minute road trips with my hockey friends. I have been to several arenas. During the 2005-2006 season I went to Glens Falls twice, Danbury Connecticut once, and then a big trip in the spring to Kalamazoo, Michigan and Port Huron Michigan. Last season I only went on two trips (seeing how the Jackals were the lone team in the east) I went to Chicago for 4 days and saw the Jackals play twice. And then I went back to Port Huron for the final game of the season. (we don¡¦t wanna talk about that one)
I love meeting new people and I hope that all our friends from the various other teams in the IHL and the ECHL will come out and help us cheer on our favorite jackals. I have yet to pick a team in the IHL. I have to wait and see where some favorites of mine sign! But Port Huron will always have a special place in my heart. AHL it¡¦s a tough choice but I will have to say that both the Ice Hogs and Mallards are my favorites. NHL it¡¦s the Sabres and Senators all the way.
I¡¦m not a hard person to get along with. If ya wanna chat hockey or just bs I am always up for it!
*LIVE * LAUGH* LOVE*
