Hockey Playoff Update

We won our 3rd straight playoff game last night, 4-1 over the purple team. We play them again Sunday night for the championship. We've won 9 of our last 10 games and are 15-5-1 on the season including playoffs. We've never been in the championship game before. Bad news is that 2 of our top forwards won't make the game Sunday.

It was a long night that started with our bowling banquet around 6pm. I drank a few beers until about 8:30 or so then went to hockey. I only drank miller lite so it was really like half water so I wasn't too drunk. Got to the rink in time to catch a fight in the game before us. 2 young guys, both new to the league, decided they'd had enough of the refs not calling anything so they squared off, dropped the gloves and helmets and started throwing punches. Pretty even fight and broken up pretty quickly. They're done in our league. There's a zero tolerance policy on fighting, they won't be allowed to play again. One of the guys was too good for our intermediate league anyway, dude played division 1 college hockey.

I didn't get home till 11:30 so I slept in this morning, didn't get to work till 8:00.

And of course, it's a beautiful day today, going to be about 67 and very sunny. This weekend will be mid 50's and raining so doesn't look good for golfing unless I can get out tomorrow afternoon. Probably have to go alone though, doesn't look like anyone can get the afternoon off. If anyone can and wants to play, let me know.
