Not Your Ordinary Sports Drink

The Alien Joe Team has a new advantage over their competition. The addition of Alienade to the team's nutritional plan was the brainchild of Alien Joe Alternate Captain, Fascian.

"Every game our guys felt like each player added a little something to the team. I decided why not bottle a bit of everyone so we could all share" stated Fascian.

Although not FDA approved, Alienade has some remarkable properties. The combination of ingredients gives everyone that extra "uummphh" when playing. The taste resembles a mix of Sprite, Jagermeister, Cognac & a hint of chocolate milk. Although the complete formula has been kept secret, the primary ingredients include:

Lowell Face-Off
Bafia Saucer Pass
LeFleur Speed
G. Kelley Crosscheck
S. Kelley Youth
Topliff Stickhandling
Bishop Skating Form
Miller Big Body
Clutts Good Looks
Blomquist Brickwall Defense
Fascian Screen & Redirect
Dylo Forecheck
Bast Cartwheel Save
& 100% Nate Brand

Not available in stores. For ordering, please pay $84.99 / can to Mike Fascian. Production of the pictured can not currently available, so bottle provided may look alot like Gatorade.

Side effects include but are not limited to:

• Severe vomiting
• Unexpected fatigue
• Itching & scratching
• Athlete's foot
• Bleeding from the knees
• Uncontrolled penalties
• Excessive outbursts
• Complete muscle failure

Enjoy.

The End.......and Thanks

It is a sad day to make the official announcement that we are closing Alien Hockey.

I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of the friends, customers & teammates we have come to know and will continue to have.

Some unfortunate circumstances have caused us to make a smart business decision and move on to other things that will be better for our family.

We will continue to be involved in all areas of hockey. Coaching, playing, organizing, instructing, etc. have become a part of our life and will continue. My plan is to keep the website & blog going as a way to keep the hockey community informed & entertained.

Many have already expressed their sadness about our closing and although we are upset as well, we have already accepted it and are ready to move on. I am a believer that things happen for a reason and some time down the road, another opportunity to reopen may occur. We have done too much to help the growth of hockey at all levels to not be hopeful of a future opportunity.

At this time, we will start the closing process by looking to sell off our inventory. All our inventory is marked down 30% from our already low prices. We hope (and encourage) all of our customers to come take advantage of some great prices. It will be a huge help to me to get this merchandise moved. Some have expressed that they feel bad getting items from me at a discount as its a way of benefiting from our loss. Please do NOT feel this way. We need to move this inventory, so you can help by picking up that stick you've been contemplating, equipment for growing kids, etc.

I am announcing this on my blog first. I will have an email sent out to all of youth hockey in the next 2 days, but wanted to give my loyal blog followers an opportunity to get a first look at items we have.

We plan on keeping our sharpener & skate oven. We are in the process of securing a location to still provide these services. If you have remaining sharpens on your account, we have converted this to store credit for you.

Again, thank you for your support of our store, my blog & hockey. We hope we added something to your hockey life.

Joe & Natalia
