Like when you get your back cracked.
I figured it was a sign I had done enough for the night.
I have one vertebrae that is no longer square from one of my motorcycle wrecks, so I tend to be cautious with my back.

Scrimmage - 1 hour
Went to do a different skate. Maybe a third of the skaters were on my winter league team.
They were chirping that if I didnāt score a goal, I couldnāt ever skate again with them.
Knees felt good.
Lotās of good passes, defensive plays.
And a poor decision for the other team to change defense set me up for a one on one with the goalie.
It went like this 
That looks like fun.
Yay!!! And glad to hear your knees are feeling better.

Scrimmage - 1.5 hours
New team for summer league, we got in a scrimmage against another team.
I moved up a level, so it was good to see I was competitive. Several shots on net, good defensive plays, good communication on the ice.
New team scored about 15 goals. Looks like we will have some fun this summer.
Summer league starts June 5.

Knees were ok. Got an assist. Had better players tell me I was always in the right place and made good plays.
Went to the bar to watch the end of the Blues/Sharks game.

Wellā¦ decided to skate some more
Hockey scrimmage - 2 hours
Soā¦ I decided to go do the high end Thursday night skate. Ended up skating the first hour 4 on 4 full ice with 1 on our bench. Mostly AA and AAA 18 yoās. Got a goal and an assist in that skate. It ended and there was a skate for a bachelor party right after it. I was asked to do that skate because the were shot players. So I ended up in another hour of 4 on 4 full ice hockey with a bunch of former college club and D1 players. Got a couple of assists in that scrimmage, several good shots on net. Knees felt good for the full 2 hours.
Of course there was proper re-hydration afterwards.

League game - 1 hour
Start of summer league. Won 3-0.
Same team we played in the scrimmage a couple of weeks ago.
Did something right because I ended up pissing off one of the other team enough to where he tried to cup check and start a fight.
No time was spent in the box by either party.
At least then I would have been on the score sheet.

Thanks, CL.
Hopefully we can keep doing it.
We scored the 3 goals in the first and then backed off a little on offense to keep the shutout.
