Got cliff notes on that story?
It sounds pretty interesting.

I was sad to hear that the Ninjas were out for the 2014/15 season. I'm playing summer league with a team that's been together for 11 years, and even though they've had 10 losing years, they won their div 3 years ago and they still talk about it. We made so many mistakes last year. But if we had Nick for the whole season, things would have ended differently.
I miss you guys!
Let's s&p next week. Then for for lunchtime beers!

Last winter season I played Div E in the HNA league, C2 in ASHL Langley, and B1 +30 at ASHL Langley. My style is very aggressive and athletic though. I will dive on the puck if I can, and have no problems putting a shoulder into an offending player in my crease. I think that's the problem there, is that guys think the goalie should be a pussy and back down. I'm more protective of my crease, and especially my defensemen. We're a team out there, and have to watch each other's backs.
For some reason, roller is where I shined. I have 6 games total played, with a record 5w - 1L. 2 games in silver (1w-1L), 2 wins in copper, and 1 win in bronze. I don't know how the hell that happened. Although the rollerfly really helped. That trips guys out completely, when the goalie slides from post to post on a wrap.
