THE HOCKEY WIRE SERVICE – 24/09/09 rights reserved

Staff Reporter – Team Entripy’s goalie carousel continues today, as the long awaited debut of stand-out net minder Sean “the Cat” Ireton is postponed by at least another week.  A flu has swept through the production department and sources say that Ireton will not dress for tonight’s crucial game.  In his place will be the untested Nic “Swiss Cheese” Finucane, a product of the Entripy Marlies farm team.

Finucane, who’s only goalie experience is a combined 90 minutes of indoor field hockey and limited action as third string back-up on his indoor soccer team, seemed upbeat about the team’s chances. “We know what we have to do, and as long as we all go in and give 110%, we’re going to start getting results go our way.” When asked about his ability to play at this level, Finucane was confident, “I feel ready. We’ve got a good group of players, and we just want to go out there and keep the pressure in their zone, dig deep and hopefully come away with the win.”

Coach Brasil described the situation as “less than ideal”, but the move does allow him to unleash the offensive juggernaut that is Aris Miranda, after he assumed goalie duties in the season opener.

Team Entripy go into the game with a 0-1 record, looking for the first win of the season.

OhhhI forgot to mention the exact channel…it’s called Canada’s Leader for Custom Printed T-Shirts! I know…just a tad long but whatcha gonna do?!?!?!

Many companies or groups of friends will get together and participate in charity golf tournaments and what better way to look like a team than wear custom golf shirts. At least after the round of golf you can still sport the shirt and get use out of it for the rest of the golf season and wherever your golfing desires take you! We also have tons of golfing items that can be customized…such as a golf shoe bag, golf umbrella, golf towel…just to name a few!

You don’t even have to be a golfer to wear a golf shirt with your company logo or name on it. It’s got that professional look and its comfy. All of Entripy’s warehouse managers wear blue golf shirt now with the Entripy logo on them…I must say…very sharp! Man…if we aren’t wearing apparel with the Entripy logo on it, then who is?!??!!?!

The items can be screen printed or embroidered just to your liking but at the end of the day, it’s your choice! You can either go the golf course and blend in with the beautiful trees and perfectly manicured grass. Or you can take the high road and wear custom golf apparel made just for you! Like I said…it’s ultimately your decision! LOL!

In the Summer 2009 Vic Report is a profile of Jas as he represents a ‘different path to success.’ He is profiled alongside a Sommelier and a Scientist and Advocate, both of whom are University of Toronto – Victoria College alumni as well.

It’s absolutely fabulous that the alumni are profiled and it lets everyone in the Victoria College community know where people are today and how they have gotten to where they are.

Congrats on the fabulous article Jas! We are proud of you and I’m sure the University of Toronto – Victoria College is too. A special thanks to the Vic Report Team as well! For the full article, click HERE!

Are you all willing to…Ride or Die…Entripy Style? Friday June 26th from 5:30 pm until 2 am! Dress trendy & more info will most likely not follow!

For weeks, the staff have been guessing what this night would entail. Guesses included Canada’s Wonderland (LOL!), Niagara Falls, a BBQ at the Brar House, Roller Skating (Danny went as far as calling a roller skating place nearby to see if there was a booking…crazy!!!). A lot of planning and secrets went into this amazing night! And trust me…secrets aren’t exactly easy for me to keep. Okay I confess I am terrible at keeping secrets but I was great this time.

You must be wondering what we did that night! Okay here it goes. We had the entire Entripy Team and their spouses/significant others meet at our office at 5:30. At 6, a crazy limo bus pulled up and we loaded Carlsberg Beer, martinis, mojitos, cosmos, music and got set for a night out! Keep in mind…no one had any idea of what was going on. Our first stop was around the corner at Dirty Martini where we had shots. We literally ran out of the bus, had a shot, took some pics and ran back onto the bus. We then got on the QEW and drove downtown for dinner at Movenpik Marche. We ate great meals here and I’m not going to lie, more alcohol was consumed.

We then got back on the limo bus and drove up Yonge Street to Yonge-Dundas Square where we danced to the amazing beats of Swami, followed by the Michael Jackson. (Read the blog below about that…it was unbelievable!) The dancing and singing to MJ went on for quite some time and then we headed back to the bus where we surprised our team with something else! We pre-arranged for Swami to come party with us for the rest of the night. Some members of our team were starstruck but I won’t mention any names. I also won’t mention which staff member ran and bought a bouquet of flowers to give to the female singer in Swami. LOL!!! It was funny to say the least.

Well you’re probably wondering what else..what next? We hit up Mink Nightclub with an amazing rooftop patio and danced and drank the night away. Everyone let loose and had an unbelievably amazing night! I think the girls outdrank the guys that night!

The limo ride back to Oakville was pretty mellow and some people even crashed at Entripy. It was definitely a night to remember and one that may have just started an annual tradition. Hmmm not sure how we are going to beat this next year but I’m sure we will find a way!

Ohhh and I have to add that our limo driver was great and we gave him a custom t-shirt to wear the whole night!
