Game # 4

Ok, so we are still not in a division. But I felt we played a team more our level. We had the lead again & a few breakdowns in the 3rd gave the game away. Personally I got another assist that gave me a 3 game point streak. We are getting better & I'm having fun again. Its been so nice not having to be the one in charge. Just showing up to play has made playing fun again. I will post the next game when they get it on the schedule. GO MONKEYS!!

Game # 3

Last game of placement, at least we hope. It was another loss to a higher divisioned team. But it was close!! We were down 3-0, then we scored one to make it 3-1. They added another to make it 4-1 in the 3rd. Steve scored his second goal with 5 minutes remaining & I added one a minute later to bring us within 1. We pulled our goalie, but we couldn't put that extra one in the net. 4-3 was the final. Pretty good for being shorthanded as well as playing a late 11 p.m. game. GO MONKEYS!!

Wisconsin Here I Come!!

So last Feb. I got to take a amazing trip to Wisconsin to play in the Labatt Blue Pond Hockey Championship. ( The reason I created this blog!! ) It was a unbelievable experience. Well, we are taking that trip again & I'm ready to go!! It'll be the same 5 ( Aaron, Darryl, Kenny, Scott & I ) w/ Ian added to the mix. I'm extremely excited to be able to do the trip again. With money issues I was worried I wouldn't be able to do this trip. But its working out so far!! I'll keep everyone posted!!
GO MONKEYS!!

4-2 loss

Ok so we did it again. Held a lead into the third & loss. This time it was a wierd circumstance. Darry plays for both teams that were playing. We wanted to beat him, but if we won, it could put both of the teams in the same division. Needless to say, he got a scare, but in the end... his other team pulled it out. GO MONKEYS!!

Game #2

Game #2 - Sunday @ 8:45 p.m. vs. All Blacks, Everett.

Game #1... a loss...

O.k. if I told you the final score, you'd think it was bad. A loss... is bad. But all in all, I thought we played well, for 2 periods. We jumped out to a early 2-0 lead in the first. Half way through the second the D took a bad line change & left our goalie on a 3 on 1. They scored to make it 2-1 at the end of the 2nd. Thats where things went bad. We let some long shifts & bad penalties knock us back to earth. Final score... 6-2. They were a better team that played in a higher division, but we were right there. I think we'll be fine. It was fun to get back on the ice though!! GO MONKEYS!!
