About George »

I am currently living in Kansas City, Missouri and I am a dedicated journalist. My major passion is writing about hockey, especially The NHL's most storied and successful franchise the Montreal Canadiens, and The Colorado Avalanche who I followed and took a liking for considering I grew up in the plains of Eastern Colorado. I'm currently a member of NHL 21, a networking group trying to get an NHL franchise in the Kansas City Metro. In addition I also like covering local Kansas City teams, The Royals(I just happen to be named after George Brett) and The Chiefs. My second favorite sport is probably college football though and I follow The Missouri Tigers, and the Big 12 conference. Other sports and topics that interest me our Nascar, NBA, Negro League Baseball, Fishing, and even Bull Riding.

Hey George,

I wrote a piece in May highlighting the position players that I thought should make the all star team. I started a 2-part follow up piece today focusing on starting pitchers. I started with AL. If you get the chance, I'd appreciate it if you took a look at it. Thanks

Greetings fellow Habs community member,

The playoffs are starting in just two days, and while we are all gearing up with our lucky jerseys and our favourite beers (for those who are legally old enough), our beloved Canadiens are getting ready to make the most of the new chance that has been given to them with this playoff ticket.

Exciting times, exciting times.

Bleacher has always been a place of gathering and debating for us Hockey fans. This time again, we will take the playoffs and our views in our own writings, with a series of articles in partnership with the Boston Bruins community (details in the following link).

http://bleacherreport.com/articles/155874-a-call-to-arms-for-bruins-and-habs-writers

So please come in and be part of it, to add to our already exciting playoffs atmosphere!

Comments, suggestions and ideas are more than welcomed on the Community Leaders’ boards. Tell us what you think, what you want to add and such!

Happy playoffs and GO HABS GO!

Miah D.

i know! tonight we might make it through though, the rangers have 89 points, and the habs have 92.if we win tonight, we will have 94 points, (win in regulation time). even if the rangers win their two remaining games, they will end up behind the habs . so that is a playoff spot, but then the standing thing will have to be determine with the bruins, and the pens.

George-

You indicated that you were interested in becoming the Royals Community Leader. I'd love to read your thoughts on the Royals in an article. Are you still interested in this position, or should I take you out of the running?

Hi there,

how are you?
A little informal introduction at first (we don't want to look impolite on B/R! lol). so my name is Miah and I am the community leader of the Montreal Canadiens, along with Matt Eichel.

I just wanted to say hi,

I have been through some of your articles, and you got a great writing!

I hope to see for montreal canadiens coverages some time! ;)

take care,
Miah ;)
