It may have knots, small dinks, varied roughness and imperfections as to be expected of wood. I do sand each piece with an electric sander, but I do not attempt to completely cover all of these imperfections. I think they add warmth, charm & character to the sign. Each sign will vary depending on those characteristics, grain of the wood and distressing. For painted, shabby distressed signs, each will vary according to the distressing as well.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) ? Karen lost more of its punch late Saturday and fell below tropical-storm status while stalling off the Louisiana coast.
Even as a tropical depression with top sustained winds of 35 mph (55 kph), the system threatened to bring strong wind and heavy rain to vulnerable low-lying areas. However, all watches and warnings were discontinued along the Gulf Coast.
The National Weather Service said Saturday evening that the system was stationary but expected to move across or near the southeast Louisiana coast late Saturday or early Sunday, then track eastward and lose strength. It spent Saturday either stalled or moving slowly.
Karen was centered about 185 miles (295 km) southwest of the mouth of the Mississippi River.
Forecasters expected for there to be little change in the system's strength over the next 24 hours and that it would turn into a remnant Monday.
The National Weather Service said storm surges of 1-to-3 feet were possible along the southeast Louisiana and Mississippi coast, with rainfall accumulations of up to 3 inches ? 6 inches in isolated areas ? along various spots along the central Gulf Coast.
In low-lying Plaquemines Parish, La., officials changed an evacuation order from mandatory to voluntary Saturday afternoon. More than 80 evacuees from the area, at the state's southeastern tip, had taken refuge at a public shelter, which would remain open Saturday.
They gathered in an auditorium where they rested on cots, watched for weather updates on TV and chatted outside on the front steps.
"I don't really know what to expect, but they told us to evacuate, so we got out," said Dana Etienne, 27, of Phoenix, La., who was at the shelter with her three young children.
Ahead of the storm, squalls of rain hit workers sandbagging low sections of the flood-prone town of Lafitte, La., along Bayou Barataria.
"We have a high tide, but we only have another 15-17 hours to worry about, and I don't think the tide will come up much more in that time," Mayor Timothy Kerner said. "It looks like it might come up another foot or two, but I think we're going to be OK."
Coastal authorities closed flood gates along waterways that could be affected by tides driven by the storm. In New Orleans, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers continued closing barriers designed to keep surge out of the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal ? scene of catastrophic flooding in 2005 when flood walls failed during Hurricane Katrina.
Col. Richard Hansen of the corps said more gates along various canals could be closed, and warned boaters not to get caught on the wrong side of those gates "If there is a gate in the system, it may not be open when you decide to come back in," Hansen said. "So it's time to pull your boats out of the water and quit fishing."
At the Port of New Orleans, port officials working with the Coast Guard said they were optimistic that vessel traffic at the mouth of the Mississippi River, halted since Friday morning, would resume Sunday. The port remained busy, officials said in a news release, with some of the nine ships at dock there still working cargo. Two Carnival cruise ships that had to delay weekend arrivals were expected Monday.
Dan Hahn, emergency operations planner for Santa Rosa County in the Florida Panhandle said Karen appeared to be a "nonevent" for the region.
The county had activated its Emergency Operations Center for the weekend, but decided to close it after getting the latest update on the storm's path. Hahn said he and other officials were relieved the storm wasn't more developed. But Hahn still urged residents to pay attention to weather updates and to be prepared for any emergency.
"Complacency is always a concern, but we aren't seeing that," he said, adding that most Panhandle residents take tropical weather seriously because of the large storms that have struck the region in the past.
Mississippi Emergency Management Agency spokesman Brett Carr said the Mississippi National Guard was demobilized Saturday and emergency operations were being scaled back.
As Karen churned the Gulf, some people along the coast couldn't resist the draw of beaches.
Ray and Lynn Walls of Shepherdsville, Ky., had a sunny beach to themselves Saturday on the western tip of Dauphin Island, Ala. Waves pounded the seawall protecting nearby homes, and a locked gate blocked the entrance to a public beach that was closed because of Karen.
In Biloxi, Miss., families played on the beach, joggers trotted along the waterfront and a steady stream of cars passed on the main beach front road.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) ? Buffalo rookie quarterback E.J. Manuel will miss "a few weeks" with a sprained ligament in his right knee.
The injury will not require surgery, Bills coach Doug Marrone said Friday, a day after a 37-24 loss in Cleveland.
Manuel was injured in the third quarter Thursday night, when he was hit by Browns safety Tashaun Gipson at the end of a 14-yard run. Jeff Tuel, another rookie, replaced Manuel but was ineffective, completing 8 of 20 passes for 80 yards.
Marrone said the Bills will look into acquiring another quarterback and did not rule out the possibility of that player starting Buffalo's next game Oct. 13 at Cincinnati.
Also, receiver Stevie Johnson has a strained back muscle that is not expected to keep him out of action, Marrone said. Johnson left Thursday's game in the second quarter and did not return.

We recently brought you our review of the 2014 ROUSH Perofrmance RS3 Mustang. During our week with the beast we were able to drag race, road race, and drift the powerful pony car.
The standard RS3 from ROUSH makes 575 hp at the crank, a fact we backed up on our in house Dnyojet chassis dyno last year with 501 hp making it to the rear tires. These power numbers creep close to what the stock Coyote engine internals are capable of handling.
What if you?re an enthusiast who wants more than the standard 575 hp RS3, ROUSH has several options including the wicked Phase 3. The Phase 3 package kicks the power up further with the addition of a Ford Racing Performance Parts Aluminator crate engine. Featuring beefier internals and a slightly more supercharger friendly compression ratio of 9.5:1. Combined with a pulley upgrade for the supercharger, the power jumps to 675 hp at the flywheel.
Recently Ray Skillman Ford had a RS3 Phase 3 at their dealership, and took the opportunity to put the car on their in house dyno. The RS3 Phase 3 spun the rollers to 598 hp at the rear tires, and John Trischler the performance manger for Ray Skillman Ford states that this should work out to about 688 hp at the crank.
Trischler goes on to point out several other features of this particular Phase 3, including the V8 Red paint job, a $15,000 option. The high metallic paint does add a lot of glow to the car, and if you?re going to go all in on anRS3 Phase 3, why not make it unique with some cool paint as well.
The video alone is worth watching to hear the nearly 700 hp engine screaming on the dyno. The best part of the RS3 package is that even in Phase 3 form the car remains 100-percent street and emissions legal, making this quite possibly the ultimate daily driver, street/strip, or track Mustang for those who can afford it.

The NFL reportedly will investigate the leak of Josh Freeman?s medical information. (Jim Rogash/Getty Images)
The NFL plans to investigate the leak of Buccaneers quarterback Josh Freeman?s medical information and a report that he was a participant in the league?s drug program, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com.
Rapoport tweeted that fines for violating player confidentiality range from $10,000 to $500,000.
MMQB: One big mess in Tampa Bay
A Monday?report from ESPN?s Chris Mortensen?revealed that Freeman was a Stage 1 participant in the NFL?s drug program. Freeman reportedly has a temporary use exemption for a prescription drug outside the boundaries of the NFL?s substance-abuse policies. A Stage 1 status does not automatically indicate that Freeman ever tested positive for any banned substance without an exemption.
SI VIDEO: Who looks worse, Bucs or Josh Freeman?
On Monday, Freeman issued a response through his agents explaining the report, and his participation in the program as first posted by?Pro Football Talk.
The ongoing drama between Freeman and the Bucs includes a Wednesday report by SI.com?s Jim Trotter that Freeman?has been fined twice by the club in the last month, including once in the last week, for conduct detrimental to the team. Freeman reportedly plans to appeal the infractions that include missing at least one team meeting and participating in an unauthorized media interview.
The fines could give Tampa Bay ammunition to suspend Freeman without pay and allow the team to attempt to trade the fifth-year quarterback while not paying a portion of his salary.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) ? For Evan Longoria and the Tampa Bay Rays, this was a fitting way to get back into the playoffs.
They earned their postseason berth in the final game of the regular season for the second time in three years, needing an extra game to do so this time.
And their 5-2 victory in the AL wild-card tiebreaker Monday night came against the Texas Rangers, the team that knocked the Rays out the playoffs their last two trips.
"It feels really good to be able to leave here celebrating instead of with our heads down," said Longoria, who had a two-run homer among his three hits and scored another run.
"It sure feels good to get them after so many times they've knocked us out," Ben Zobrist said.
David Price (10-8), the reigning AL Cy Young winner, threw his fourth complete game this season. He struck out four and walked one, and even picked off two runners while allowing seven hits, striking out four and walking one. He threw 81 of 118 pitches for strikes.
The Rays face another must-win situation Wednesday night at Cleveland in the AL wild-card game, Tampa's third game in three cities in a four-day stretch. The winner faces Boston in the division series.
In the visitor clubhouse at Rangers Ballpark, the Rays were chanting "One More Game! One More Game!" while spraying each other with champagne.
"We feel like we've played the same game in the last week like 12 times," Zobrist said. "It just feels like every game is that important. ... Let's just get to the next game and we'll worry about that then."
Tampa Bay won eight of 10 games to get into the first wild-card tiebreaker in the majors since 2007.
Texas had to win seven in a row to force an extra game. Eight was too much for the Rangers, whose season ended in their 163rd game for the second year in a row ? this time without even getting to the playoffs.
"What goes through my mind? We're going home," third baseman Adrian Beltre said. "We expected to be in the playoffs. But we didn't play well enough."
While the Rangers had a last-week surge to extend their regular season, they were done in by a 5-15 start to September after beginning the final month with a two-game lead in the AL West.
"We just didn't get it done. I've got no excuse for that," manager Ron Washington said.
Texas had beaten the Rays in the AL division series in 2010 and 2011 on way to its only two World Series. The Rangers then lost to Baltimore in the first AL wild-card game last October after another late-season slide.
The return of All-Star slugger Nelson Cruz from his 50-game drug suspension wasn't enough for Texas.
Cruz, who had 27 homers and 76 RBIs in 108 games before his suspension, was 0 for 4 with a strikeout while batting sixth as the designated hitter. When he grounded out to short to end the game, Price and Longoria locked eyes before embracing to start the celebration.
When Price woke up Monday, all he could think about was throwing a complete game, then getting that last out and turning straight to Longoria.
"You're probably supposed to go to your catcher first, but for what he's done for us and what he's done for me personally," Price said.
The first four hitters in the game against Rangers rookie left-hander Martin Perez (10-6) combined for three singles and a walk, and yet the Rays still didn't have a run.
Desmond Jennings, in his first start in more than a week after left hamstring tightness, hit the game's first pitch down the left-field line. He was thrown out trying to stretch the hit to a double when Craig Gentry made a strong throw.
Wil Myers walked on four pitches. Consecutive singles by Zobrist and Longoria loaded the bases and Delmon Young hit a sacrifice fly to push a run across.
Jennings had a leadoff walk in the third, and there were two outs before Longoria hit a drive to right-center that landed in the Rangers bullpen.
After Perez struck out Zobrist to start the sixth, the eighth consecutive batter he retired, Alexi Ogando gave up a double to Longoria, who scored on a double by pinch-hitter David DeJesus for a 4-1 lead.
Elvis Andrus walked on four pitches in the first, but was picked off by Price. Ian Kinsler had an RBI single in the third, but was caught stealing after straying off the base and drawing a throw.
"That's the way we play. Sometimes that's the result of it," Washington said. "If everything would have worked the way we wanted it to work when they decided to steal it would have been nice. ... They made the plays to stop it."
NOTES: The Rays could have had another run in the seventh, but umpires ruled that Rangers CF Leonys Martin made a diving, inning-ending catch of Young's soft flyball. Replays clearly showed that the ball bounced. ... Longoria is hitting .579 (11 for 19) in the last games of the regular season, with seven homers and 10 RBIs, according to STATS.

STUDENTS ORGANIZE NEW HOCKEY CLUB AT PITT-BRADFORD
BRADFORD, Pa. ? Intercollegiate club hockey is coming to the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford this fall thanks to some fans of the wintry sport.
The club team will play four games at its home rink in Callahan Park at 10 a.m. Oct. 13 against the University of Buffalo; at 10 a.m. Oct. 27 against Gannon University; at 10 am. Nov. 10 against Medaille University; and at 10 a.m. Nov. 17 against D?Youville College.
Admission is free, and, following the $1.8 million renovation of the rink at Callahan Park, there is spectator viewing.
Practice began last week, supervised by Greg Miller, coordinator of residential network services at Pitt-Bradford, and the team opened away Sept. 29 at D?Youville College. Matthew Pekular, a junior petroleum technology and environmental studies student from Pittsburgh, was the driving force behind starting the club.
Pekular has played amateur hockey since he was 4 and continued playing in high school for Bishop Canevin in Pittsburgh.
During his second winter at Pitt-Bradford without hockey, he decided to do something about that.
?I had an itch to play college club hockey, and I was looking to get involved on this campus,? he said.
He began recruiting some students to join a list saying that they were interested, then took the list to Dr. K. James Evans, vice president and dean of student affairs. Evans asked Pekular and two other interested players, Richard Obermeyer, a senior criminal justice major from Bradford, and Anthony Citrini, an athletic training major from Pittsburgh, to write a proposal and make a presentation for Dr. Livingston Alexander, president, to seek approval.
Once approved, funding became the next challenge. The university will pay for transportation to away games, but students are funding the cost of equipment and ice time themselves.
An early supporter of the students was Ray Geary, executive director of the division of continuing education and regional development, whose sons played hockey. Geary is now the club advisor and has helped with publicity and fundraising.
Pekular said he received help, also, from Lori Mazza, director of athletics and recreational sports; Tim Sneeringer, director of recreation, intramurals and aquatics; and Betty Spindler, administrative assistant for athletics and recreational sports.
The athletics staff helped with contacting other club teams, scheduling, finding referees and executing contracts for the ice rink.
By the time Pekular and other students were recruiting new members at the fall semester club night, there was a good amount of interest, he said. ?We?re in a hockey area,? he said. ?There?s so much enthusiasm around here.? Some students, he said, had not even skated before and spent the summer practicing at home.
Students playing and volunteering on the first-year team are Pekular, defense, club president; Citrini, defense, club treasurer; Joshua Kausner, a 2013 graduate, forward; Obermeyer, forward; Jeffrey Engels, an athletic training major from West Valley, N.Y., forward; Nicholas Gier, an environmental studies major from North Collins, N.Y., forward; Elizabeth Rix, a criminal justice major from Shinglehouse, defense; Matthew Tobin, an engineering major from Exton, defense; Artie Geahr, a member of the sport and recreation staff, goalie;
Justin Demontier, a sports medicine major from Russell, forward, club vice president; Russ Marold, a petroleum technology major from Kane, forward, club secretary; Nikolas Cubbison, an undeclared major from Evans City, forward; Ty Riley, an undeclared major from Bradford, forward; Emily Volpe, a pre-physical therapy major from Brockport, N.Y., volunteer; Allison Nolan, a sports medicine major from Girard, manager; and Shane Marucci, a sport and recreation management major from Celoron, N.Y., volunteer.
Away games will take place as follows: 4 p.m. Oct 12 at Medaille; 8:15 p.m. Oct. 26 at Alfred State; 7 p.m. Nov. 16 at Pitt-Greensburg; and 1 p.m. Nov. 23 at Gannon University.

Using fresh herbs can make a huge difference in almost any dish, but they're not always available everywhere. Depending on where you live, you can't always get them during the colder months. Personally, the problem I run into the most is not being able to use fresh herbs before they go bad.
Herbs like cilantro and parsley are much easier to use up because you can throw them in a lot of different things, but less commonly used ones like tarragon or sage often end up being forgotten and thrown away. Even if you store them properly, it doesn't do much good if you can't use them all in time.
Whether you grow them yourself or buy them from the market, next time you find yourself with an overabundance of fresh herbs, don't throw them out! It's super easy to dry them yourself so they last for months, and they're handy to have around for the times when you can't get hold of fresh ones.
There are a few different ways to preserve herbs to use later. Each method works best with certain types of herbs, but any of them will do if you're in a pinch.
The hanging or air drying method is always preferable because it doesn't deplete the oils that occur naturally in herbs. This method will work with any type of herb, but it's best for herbs with a lower moisture content, like:
The process is really easy, but it does take some time. All you have to do is thoroughly wash the herbs with water, then lay them out on a towel to dry. Once dry, make bundles and tie the stems together with kitchen twine (or whatever type of string you have).
Hang them near a window that gets plenty of sunlight for 5 to 7 days. You'll know they're done when they're crisp and crumble easily.
Using your microwave to dry herbs is by far the quickest way, and is great for preserving their color and flavor. The microwave method is better for herbs with a lower oil content, such as:
How long it takes will depend on the type of herbs you're drying and will vary from microwave to microwave. It's best to start with small amounts until you figure out the time, so if you overdo it you won't ruin the whole bunch.
Spread the herbs out in one layer on a plate between two paper towels. Microwave on high for 20 seconds, then pull them out and check to see how they're doing. The paper towel should be moist from evaporating water, and the herbs will be dry and crumbly when they're done.
If they need more time, repeat the process until the herbs are completely dry. Make sure to keep a close eye on them. More delicate herbs may catch fire if you leave them in the microwave for too long.
Check out this guide on Grub Street for more details and step-by-step instructions.
If you don't have a microwave and don't want to wait a week, you can preserve herbs by freezing them instead. The freezer method works best with herbs that have a high moisture content, like:
There are three ways to freeze herbs. The first and easiest is to lay them flat on a cookie sheet and place in the freezer. When they're completely frozen, store them in an airtight container in the freezer.
Another simple method is to place the herbs flat in a large zip-top bag, roll it up into a log shape, and hold it tight with rubber bands. When you're ready to use the herbs, just slice some off from the end.
The third method is to chop the herbs and freeze them in oil. It works best if you use ice cube trays because then they're already pre-portioned when you're ready to use them.

CAIRO (Reuters) - Gunmen killed three policemen in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula on Monday, security sources said, and Islamist militants released a video of an earlier drive-by shooting of an army colonel, highlighting growing security risks to the government.
Violent disorder has gripped the Sinai since the army overthrew elected President Mohamed Mursi, an Islamist, in July. plunging the most populous Arab nation into turmoil.
An ensuing security crackdown on Mursi's Muslim Brotherhood, including the arrest of many of its top leaders, has raised fears that Islamists will hit back with violence.
In the latest bloodshed, gunmen killed two policemen as they ate breakfast outside a police station in the city of El-Arish in North Sinai. A police officer out walking elsewhere in the city was fatally shot in the head and chest. Gunmen also killed a civilian in the nearby town of Sheikh Zuwaid.
The security sources also confirmed that gunmen had killed a colonel, identified as Mohamed al-Komi, on August 14 on a desert highway near the Suez Canal city of Ismailia.
Almost daily attacks by al Qaeda-inspired militants in the Sinai have killed more than 100 members of the security forces since Mursi's ouster, the army spokesman said on September 15.
Militant violence elsewhere in Egypt has raised concerns that an Islamist insurgency, like one eventually crushed in the 1990s by then-autocratic president Hosni Mubarak's government, could take hold beyond Sinai.
The Sinai-based Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis group claimed responsibility for a failed suicide bombing in Cairo on the interior minister this month.
State neglect has long stoked resentment among the Sinai's Bedouin population. Authorities have done little to promote economic development in the vast, largely lawless desert region, whose coast has a string of resorts favored by Westerners.
The army says the Sinai is hard to police partly because it borders the Gaza Strip, which is run by Hamas, an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood. The military says Gaza-based militants take part in attacks over the border and accuses Hamas of doing too little to stop them, allegations the Islamist group denies.
Instability in Sinai worries Western governments because the peninsula borders Israel and flanks the strategic Suez Canal, the quickest sea route between Asia and Europe.
Egypt's Western allies are hoping to ease political tensions which have hurt the fragile economy in the country of 85 million.
A delegation of senior U.S. military officials arrived in Cairo for a two-day visit, state newspaper Al Ahram reported.
Assistant Secretary of Defence for International Security Affairs Derek Chollet is expected to meet senior Egyptian officials to discuss U.S. military assistance.
Washington provides the Egyptian military - the biggest in the Arab world - with $1.23 billion in annual aid. That assistance came under scrutiny after the military ousted Mursi.
European Union foreign policy Catherine Ashton is due to arrive late Tuesday night for a two-day visit that will include talks with Army Chief Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.
Although the EU had attempted to play the role of neutral broker between the army and the Brotherhood in previous mediation missions, her leverage with the army-backed government has proven limited.
"LIQUIDATING THE APOSTATES"
Attacks in Sinai have risen sharply since Mursi's overthrow, although militants and smugglers had already been exploiting a security vacuum left by the 2011 fall of Mubarak to an uprising.
The army-backed Cairo government says it is fighting a war on terror and does not distinguish between the Brotherhood and Sinai militant groups.
Interior Minister Mohamed Ibrahim said in a speech on Monday that the police are capable of "repelling thuggery and terrorism", the state news agency MENA reported.
Sinai militants have published online footage of some of their attacks - a common practice among al Qaeda-linked groups trying to motivate fighters and intimidate their enemies.
In a video posted on a jihadi website on Monday, a group calling itself "al-Nusra Battalion" shows what appears to be footage of security forces firing on Mursi supporters.
The video then shows what it says was the attack on Colonel Komi on August 14, the day security forces crushed pro-Mursi protest camps in Cairo, killing hundreds of people.
A man with an assault rifle is filmed aiming from a car window and shooting at another vehicle driving on a desert road.
"Targeting the criminal apostates and liquidating them," a caption reads.
A picture of the uniformed officer flashes on the screen next to the car seen in the drive-by shooting, a back window pocked with bullet holes and blood running down the driver's door after what appears to have been a well-planned assault.
"It's likely that they learned his daily routine ...by a combination of relatively good intelligence on their part and perhaps poor operational security on the part of the Egyptians," said David Hartwell, a Middle East analyst at IHS Jane's.
The video says al-Nusra Battalion is a unit of "al-Firqan Brigade", a militant group that took responsibility for an attack this month on a container ship in the Suez Canal.
The army, which has been operating with the police in Sinai, said on August 7 that it had killed 60 militants in the month since Mursi's overthrow.
"There are great security successes on the ground in Sinai now," Interior Ministry spokesman Hany Abdel Latif said when asked about the al-Nusra Battalion video.
"We've arrested dangerous elements and confiscated heavy weapons, and we have a large degree of control."

It's a new beginning for the University of Maine men's hockey team, and Lewiston's Mark Anthoine is excited to be part of it.
With new head coach Red Gendron and a renewed interest in the program, the Black Bears hope this season is the start of something good.
"I think everyone is excited overall, just because it's something new," said Anthoine. "A lot of people are anxious to see how this works out and how things are going. We're having great practices and workouts. It's a great group of guys this year."
The senior forward will see an increased role as one of the club's three captains. Saturday night, the team met and voted on its leaders and Anthoine was chosen along with Brice O'Connor and Devin Shore. O'Connor is the team captain while Anthoine and Shore are assistants. Anthoine is the first Maine-born captain since Lisbon's Greg Moore.
"It wasn't something I was expecting, but it was something I was striving for, just trying to use my time here to help out some of the younger guys and just be a leader," Anthoine said.
As an experienced senior with three years under his skates, Anthoine was a prime candidate to help lead a club featuring 10 new players. He has played in 93 straight games for the Black Bears, the longest streak on the team.
"I've been here for awhile," Anthoine said. "I've wanted to be one of those guys leading guys in the right direction. Our philosophy is that we lead each other and take care of one another and lead by example for one another. We just kind of govern ourselves. Coach Red? wants us to be a complete team together."
Anthoine played in 38 games last year and scored four goals and added three assists. In the 2011-12 season, he had 12 goals and seven assists. He was tied for the lead in the nation with 11 power-play goals. As a rookie, he had a goal and three assists in 33 games.
He says now being part of the captaincy makes him even more determined to make this a year to remember.
"I'm really excited now," Anthoine said. "It definitely gives you an extra boost. Now it gives me more reason to work hard for the players on my team and help lead them in any way I can."
The Black Bears were picked to finish eighth in the preseason Hockey East poll. Boston College and UMass-Lowell were tied as the top two teams.
With UMaine hockey getting a fresh start under a new coach, the team is hopinig to set the tone with their work effort.
"We're just trying to lay the ground work of what kind of a community of work we have here," Anthoine said. "We don't want to settle for anything less then the best. We want to keep getting better every day. We've got to keep building and growing."
The Black Bears open the season Sunday at 4 p.m. by hosting Dalhousie. Fans as well as the players are excited to see what the new season brings.
"We don't want to set expectations that are too big for ourselves right away," Anthoine said. "We want to take every practice and every game one at a time. I think we're as anxious as people on the outside. We're anxious to get things going. We're really excited for the season to start."
Anthoine said that the diligent work that the team has been doing is an effort to start the season strong and dictate what it does on the ice.
"We don't want to just show up for games and hope to win," Anthoine said. "We want to have our foot on the gas pedal and start taking it to teams and that starts in practice every day. That's kind of the mentality we have here now."
Anthoine is hoping for improvement in his own game. He's striving for a strong senior season and make an impact on the ice and in the locker room.
"Every year I want to keep getting better," Anthoine said. "I want to stay in my role on the team. It's my senior year and there are things I need to improve on to help the team. I want to continue to play with consistency. That's the biggest aspect of playing at the next level. You have to be a consistent player. I just want to lead by example and push the guys around me.
"I think we have a great team from the looks of it. I'm anxious to help guide them and play with them by my side."
