Game vs. Ice-o-topes, Sunday, Jan. 20th

Update!! With 3 of us playing our 2nd game the day, I thought we'd start off a little sluggish, but that wasn't the case. We went through warm-ups half assed since we were shorthanded. The score keeper informed us that this was a Cup game. Novice Cup. It's something the league does throughout the season. The only difference is that if we end in a tie, we go to a shoot out. The games then count also under a different standing & at the end of the season I guess we play in a little playoff or something. I'll find out more later. As for our game tonight, it started off by us having the same ref as our last game. See 2nd post for more on that. Since Sharon had a theory that he only calls penalties on the dark team, we decided to go white jerseys for the game. It didn't start off well as Adam got called for our first penalty. On the penalty kill, I managed to get the puck deep in their zone, felt Darryl trailing & made a pass from behind the net. Darryl was there to clean it up & put it in for our first goal. Our second came late in the game. We should have had one to end the 2nd period but the officials claimed it went in after the buzzer. ( BULLSHIT ) Hopefully no one saw that last comment. But Kim put one in on a pass across the crease from Jared. I watched it from behind Kim, & it was a great play. Darryl finished off the scoring with a empty net goal as time expired. Bill was supposed to have a assist on that play, but as usual, the officials didn't see it that way. So it was a nice win for the monkeys, keeps us in the thick of things. I shall now go take a shower & head to bed since I have to be at work in 5 hours. GO MONKEYS!!
