We're Rolling!

Yeppers! Got 2 full lines out last night an Beat Down the Green Bastards 7-2 in a game that was closer than the score indicates. We had Pierre, Ti-Gas, Marc C. & Andy "My Steelers are so Great" Vail on the Blue line, with myself, Pat, Karl, PA, Gilles, & Ken up front.


We jumped out to a 2-0 lead but they quickly got one back to make it 2-1. It stayed that way for quite a while. It was fast paced game at the cage and the Green Bastards had a couple of spares that gave them 2 solid lines. Alain was solid and made some good saves during this stretch along with Rob "the Green Bastard" at the other end holding the fort as well.


After the half, we started to get the momentum and we're getting better chances. We finally popped the 3rd one and quickly made it 5-1. The final minutes saw them score on a knuckle baller that fooled Al, and we got another while Pierre was hugging Rob. The final was a flip out of our end from PA that slowly glided into the open net at the other end with about 2 seconds left. It ended 7-2.


Take that! Ya Green Bastards!

The Magnificent 5...that's right FIVE!

We called up Warren from the minors to fill in for Alain.  He was overjoyed at seeing the support of five guys show up!  Ti-Gas, Karl, PA, Pat, & yours truly.  There were a few "Choice Words" bantered about for our missing Team Mates.....but the show must go on.

I was the first to hit the ice and little #2 from the Black Bastards skates over and asks, "How many are you guys, can you spare a few?".  I said, "You're shitting me, we're only five", he said, "Fuck, we're only 6!".  Well we're both screwed I guess.

We decided to play 4 on 4, which gave them 2 spares and only 1 for us, but whatever, let's get it on.

I think we jumped out to a 2-0 lead.  They got one back to make it 2-1.
We went up 3-1 then they made it 3-2.  We got up 4-2, and I'm not sure what the sequence was but it ended up 5-3.  We never trailed.  With so much ice we had lots of time and really passed the puck around.  We outshot them and left a lot of goals out there.  We could have had this one running away.  Warren was solid and made some key saves and didn't give up anything cheap.  He was suffering from a chest injury, but that was from a Crazy Carpet...that's another story.


Needless to say we were all sucking wind, but like good Catholic Boys, we pulled it out!

So take that ya Black Bastards, HA! 

A Win at the Cage

We had 2 lines and 3 D. Pierre, Ti-Gas, & Marc (new guy) on the Blue line with Pat, Johnny, Karl, PA, Gilles, and myself up front.  It was back and forth for the first while.  We traded goals and it was 2-2.  We started to wear them down and take it to 'em.  We were really passing the puck well, and banged it out of our end.  We took advantage of some quick transition plays and put a few in.  At the end it was Good Guys 7, White Bastards 3.


Happy New Years.....ya Pricks!  HA!

Magnificent 7

As releayed by email....

Score was 6-4.  We were dubbed the Magnificent 7.  Everyone played all positions.  Richard Draino was in nets and put up a good performance.  Me and Andy tried our luck as forwards – Not good.  We should note that the other team was only 8.  The down side was that we were getting updates of the Junior game from ref.    

Denis Gagnon

6-3 win

3 goals Hob + 3 goals P.A. ; mine were lucky, his were skill.

The highlights were not centered on our game.  Russia/Canada Junior game night so skaters were scarce.  Nets were covered by the shower unclogger (Richard).

Beginning of our game, we were all feeling like proud Canadians, as our young junior team had a healthy 3-0 lead over Russia.  Everyone concluded it was wise to leave the comforts of home for that forgone conclusion and come play the game ourselves.

At half time, the guys on the other bench stated Canada was loosing 4-3.  We thought they were kidding.  There was NO WAY that could happen.  After the game, reality dimmed our great efforts for the win over the white team with the 5-3 loss of Canada to Russia.  We all left like loosers.

Highlight:  7 skaters (temporarily only 6 as Carl fighting the flu took a 15 minute break to have a shit).

The other team only had 8 skaters was it wasn’t heavily favoured either side.

Needless to say, it wasn’t the fastest game

I almost forgot, TGars did the same deak move twice and hit a disappointing post (clearly had the tender beat) the first time and stuffed it in the safety of his pads the second time.
