League game - 1 hour
Won 9-7. Made some good passes, was in the usual role of screening the goalie.
In that fight that didn’t happen, my money would have been on you.
Always best to tactifully avoid them wherever possible. Too much afterglow with dentists, lawsuits, occasional emergency room.
Hockey fights are a little more simple. A couple of hits then you try to pull the other guys jersey up over his head. If you can, he can’t fight.
Then you both take a break in the sin bin for 5 minutes.

I might add that I was entertained by some new “bros” at the gym trying to use the squat rack.
Pussy pad, one of those back braces you see on workers at Home Depot, and not even quarter squat depth.
Hahahaaa! Bet that was better than television.

Won 6-5. Had one good shot at the net but was just wide. Fast game.
Yay! Winner, winner chicken dinner! Hydration for all!
Ha, you have no idea. Good thing I brought a 30 pack.
Beer is a food group for you? Guess all that skating keeps the weight down.
Wait… It’s not a food group!!!

Refereeing League games - 3 hours.
Forgot my knee braces. Figured I’d go for as long as I can. Made it though 3 games, with the top 2 teams in my league playing the last game.
Right knee finally started to feel some pain in the middle of the last game, but I made it all the way through.

Wednesday Night Men’s Skate - 1 hour
Knees felt really good. I did a lot of good passes, good vision and helped with keeping us on attack. I made a few good defensive plays too.
Had a lot of fun. ![]()
Where did you go? Is hockey season over? Hellllllo! Earth to Tom!
Still here. Just haven’t been updating. End of the month is playoffs for the league, we are trying to get positioned for it.
We played the #1 team last Monday, with only 8 players skating. Lead at one point 8-4 in the second period. Lost 9-11, ran of of steam in the third period.
Won the last game on Thursday.
Will reboot lifting with 531 this week.
