GO MONKEYS!!

Not The Way We Want To Enter The Playoffs...

Another loss. Even though it was to a team in a higher division & this game didn't really mean much since our playoff seeding was already in place. It was still a tough loss. We had just gotten back into the game at 5-3 ( yes we were losing )... then gave up 2 straight goals in a matter of minutes to put the game out of reach. Kind of a let down. Now we need to regroup & start this playoffs right. GO MONKEYS!!

Next Game - Last Regular Season Game!!

It is Sunday, March 29th @ 10:30 p.m. vs. Real Bacon - Everett Community Rink.
GO MONKEYS!!

I Never Thought I Would Use This Word Again....

Embarrassing!! I don't know what it is about the Fighting Coho, but we can't seem to get up for those games. Well that's not completely true. We loss to them 8-0 the first time, then got payback our next game. Then this time... 7-0. I don't think we are scheduled to play them again, but I think we are going to store this game in our pockets to remind ourselves the next time we play them. Our legs weren't there & the bounces weren't going our way. But we weren't creating them either. I would blame the game the night before, but they also played the night before. I think we gave it more the night before because it was a divisional game & this wasn't, because we were playing against DP & his other team. But in the end, the bottom line is... the Monkeys got SPANKED!! This is not how we wanted to start our run into the playoffs, but maybe a little humbling will get us up for the hard road ahead. GO MONKEYS!!

A 7-5 Win!!

The Monkeys beat the All-Blacks 7-5 last night. Steve had a 4 point night, 2 goals & 2 assists. Dan had 3, 2 goals & 1 assist. Brian, Ian & Scott rounded out the scoring with a goal each. I kept my three game point streak going with 2 assists. Overall it was a great game. Another game tonight vs. the Fighting Coho - 10:45 p.m. in Everett. GO MONKEYS!!

A 5-2 Win!!

Down 1-0 early in the game, the Monkeys responded by tying up the game. A few minutes later we found ourselves down again. Steve then netted his second goal of the game to tie it back up. End of the first period 2-2. Steve finished his night with a hat-trick ( 3 goals ) that gave us a 3-2 lead. Darryl & Scott added goals to give us the final 5-2. Deb was amazing, standing on her head for much of the 2nd & 3rd periods. Including shutting down the Squids best player on a breakaway. GO MONKEYS!!

Next Game...

Tuesday, March 17th vs. the Squids - 10:15 p.m. Lynnwood Ice Centre.
We are currently 1-0-1 this season against the Squids. GO MONKEYS!!

A 4-2 Win!!

We played the Red Raiders @ 10:45 p.m. last night & won 4-2. They scored first & Steve replied with a change up goal. We then took the lead with a great one time goal from Dan, with assists coming from Aaron & me. The Red Raiders tied it up & we headed into the 3rd 2-2. Brie then hit the back of the net with assists from Dan & me again. Darryl then capped off the night with a great play, keeping the puck in the zone & then firing one past the goalie. Don't know who assist on that goal since I wasn't one of them hehe. It was a great game all around. I do believe our next game is next Tuesday. I'll post later, I need to head to bed. GO MONKEYS!!

A Hard Fought Loss...

It was tied 2-2 for two periods, in fact we battled back from a 0-2 deficit. But in the end, we just ran out of steam. Yes we were missing a few players, but in the end we could have won that game. We just fell short. There was some nice passing to set up some great one timers. We had a number of shots, just right at the goalie. It kept the game exciting, but in the end... a loss is a loss. On that note, I shall put away my gear & get some sleep. GO MONKEYS!!
