Okay, here are some of our favourite players and why they are in this section...
Jesse Hammill
Team: Peterborough Phantoms
Number: 49
Nickname: The Hammer
Reason for liking him:
Laura says: He's easy to talk to, approachable and got cute blonde bits in his hair; keep them in please, don't go red EVER again. He's my favourite player because he's got a gorgeous canadian accent and he's a great player, well to me he is anyway. Even if he did attack me with a litter picker the other day (long story).
I think this season Jesse could focus on the team more and try not to end up sitting in the penalty box. I think Phantoms could really use Jesse's ability to work as a team, with the other players.
Ali says: Jesse is a great guy who is a perfect role model for those interested in Ice Hockey. He always seems to be trying to promote the team and he's a real laugh too!

Team: Ex-Peterborough Pirates
Number: ?
Reason for liking him:
Ali says: Craig was soooo sweet, he skated with my sister at skate with a Pirate a few seasons ago when he was netminder for the Pirates. He was really cute... and I have a video of him somewhere gettin highlights put in.
Team: Ex-Basingstoke Bison
Number: ?
Reason for liking him:
Ali says: In the 2000/2001 season when the Peteboro' Pirates were playing the B'Stoke Bison one night I went to get a packet of skittles from the vending machine (I get skittle fetishes.... anyway) Chris was in front of us in the queue, getting something to eat during the first intermission, he was just about to put his money in when he turned around and said, "I'm sorry, do you want to go first?" It was so nice of him, he had a game to go and play and there he was offering to sacrifice his precious intermission to let me go first - maybe I'm over exagerating a little, but it's the thought that counts.
Team: Peterborough Phantoms
Number: 19
Nickname: Buckers
Reason for liking him:
Ali says: Jason is a great player who just seems to get better each season. Since he joined the team he always seems to put all his effort in and is constantly improving.
Laura says: From what I've seen of him this season he is really trying hard to get lots of goals, I think if he keeps on the way he is he'll really benefit the Phantoms this season.
Team: Peterborough Phantoms
Number: 1
Nickname: Slug
Reason for liking him:
Laura says: James always tries his best and whatever the outcome always has a smile on his face, he has done really well for the Phantoms so far this season not letting many goals in, keep up the good work James:)
Ali says: We like James! No matter what he always has a smile on his face! (lol laura!) He may not be the first choice netminder, but he's really sweet. Not that I don't like Daffy, he's great too...
Team: Peterborough Phantoms
Number: 26
Reason for liking him:
Ali says: Darren has always been a brilliant player. He has great speed and agility and is a very valuable asset to the Phantoms. Him and his brother Jon, play brilliantly together!
Team: Peterborough Phantoms
Number: 39
Reason for liking him:
Laura says: On the 12/10/02 me and Ali went down to the rink for our usual skating lessons. This time though, we knew that the Phantoms were goin to be playin away at Whitley Bay and would have to get to the rink about the same time we would be skating. I bought along my autograph book and one by one the players arrived. But we must have missed a few of them (either that or they came in the back door) and we couldn't really go in the locker room to get their autographs. When we asked Craig to sign we were standing outside the locker room. He signed it and then asked "Do you want me to go in and get the players you haven't already got?" He took the book in and about five minutes later came out again with all the signatures we hadn't got...
Ali says: He was v. sweet!
