ANTHONY'S BLOG - ENTRY FOUR
“So I’m sure you’ve all heard that the group took on the dreaded Grind today on Grouse Mountain and I was hoping the second time would be easier and luckily it was,” said Saint John Sea Dogs forward Steven Anthony in his latest blog entry. “But don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t easy - it was just better. The first time, I remember I was going up seeing the sign that said I was a quarter of the way there and thinking that there was still three quarters to go, which meant there was a long way left to go.”
Anthony and his fellow Canucks prospects went to a Vancouver Canadiens baseball game later in the afternoon.
"It was great to see a game in Vancouver because I’m a really big baseball fan," he wrote. "I played baseball most of my life and stopped playing just three years ago. It’s just a really fun sport to play in the summer."

ANTHONY'S BLOG - ENTRY THREE
“Today we had an “Iron Chef” session up in one of the restaurants at the arena with Chef Brad, who helps make meals for the players during the season,” wrote the Saint John Sea Dogs forward on Canucks.com. “They called it the Iron Chef but there was no secret ingredient or Chairman, but there was cooking - not by us, by the Chef.”
Anthony also writes about some solid dishes found in this region.
“There’s an atlantic dish called a donair, which are really bad for you and I haven’t eaten those in a while but they’re a Halifax special that you can get at the pizza places,” he wrote. “They’re very good but not very good for you. I’m hungry thinking about it. I told you not to read this on an empty stomach.”

ANTHONY'S BLOG - ENTRY TWO
“When we went to the finals last season, we had some increased coverage for sure,” wrote Anthony when discussing the increased media attention at Vancouver’s Prospect Development Camp. “We had more Quebec media and even some national coverage so that was different. It was definitely more than regular season but I imagine there's probably ten times more in the Canucks preseason than our playoffs. The media doesn't scare me though, I know some people do get nervous for media but I don't mind it, I actually really enjoy it.”
“In fact, I think I've got Saint John media on my side,” he wrote. “Because I was injured at the end of the year I didn't play much in the playoffs or even in the month before that so I started to talk to the media guys that travelled with us a lot more. I got to know Tim Roszell, our radio guy and Scott Briggs, who writes for a newspaper really well during that time.”
