Game Day, Game 13: Lightning v. Katz
Lucky 13! There we were … back on the ice after a
17 day break! So, what happened while we were away?
Liz is still injured. Calvin turned 30, yes 30, can you
believe it? Dickie went on vacation to Mexico. Marlene
did rehab on her ankle. Midder went out with her imaginary
boyfriend. Wilke played floor hockey and was so sore. Linda
hasn’t found a new place yet. Leanna washed her neck guard
twice and still has a goop stain. Kobi I don’t know. Lori hurt
her hand really badly but made a miraculous recovery. Sue L.
missed us. Maija played tons of hockey with her Killarney
Icebreakers team. Sue played goal in a men’s league somewhere.
What happened on the ice? Well, it was an interesting start
with penalties called on both teams at the beginning for not wearing
their helmet straps properly, and those were the only penalties
all game. A couple of nice goals from passing, shots and rebounds,
a howlitzer and a highlight reel deke by Calvin, a roofer by Maija,
and Midder’s first goal of the season slipped deftly under
the goalie in a brilliant three-way passing play. Oh, and the other team
scored on a breakaway with less than two minutes to go, and that was
all Calvin’s fault according to Sieve. Aren’t the Canucks retro jerseys
awesome … if someone wins the lotto, buy us those ones for our new
uniforms J. It was great to see everyone again, and best of all, we
play already again on Wednesday, December 10, 2003 at 7:45pm.
