In this week, we played Auburn Alehouse for the first time. The are not bottom dwellers, or top of the league, so we hoped for the best. Well, we got 10-0. Or should I say 0-10? Everyone and their dog was getting in the penalty box. I decided that this week would not be an optimal time for me to try and do so. I was definitely more aggressive, however. I'm trying really hard to lose that personal space gap that I've set up for myself. I was back on rotation with Kenny and shrunken head and that went well. I think Kenny does much better at D, but unfortunately, I never get to make the line up. He ends up playing D at L wing anyways, so he might as well play D. Shrunken head just skates in slow motion and sometimes gets tangled up with other players. I wish that I could say that I did something brilliant, but I did battle for the puck a lot more. Plus, I was trying really hard to watch where the pass was going and to cover the open man in my zone.
Went to sticktime this am. New Mike, Ben, Eric and Pete were there. I had the most fun. I didn't want to leave. Plus at the end, I skated backwards from one end of the rink to the other. What an amazing feeling. Oh, and I scored 3 goals on Ben. I've really been trying hard to get the wrist shot going. My floor is black from my stick tape rubbing. I caused a little bit of irritation at the end of sticktime by grabbing up a puck from 2 other guys who had a pile of pucks in front of them. Hey, I brought one, I should leave with one. They found their last one in the net, so all's well that end's well.
I'm off to Tahoe this weekend and getting back sometime during the day on Sunday. The game against the MOJ, minions of Jeff isn't until 8:15, so hopefully I'll have time to get in a nap. Pretty excited to play a team that is more at our skill level. Go Hawks!
