OT: HFBoards street hockey team / pick up games/ garage leagues

[Basszor]

So what went down? How many people were there? How long did you play for? etc...

At first we were like 7. And then some guys came so in total i'd say we were 11-12 peoples. We played till 20H30 aprox. so a good 2 hours of hockey.

Was a total blast. Looking forward to the next game.

There is this school that is essentially blocking the view. I can pick you up at the subway Radison if I'm going that night.

Not even 1

But then again we didn't have the nets either. I was wondering when we'd have them for sure (i.e. when I'd need to go buy some gear, unless someone else does, so you peeps can shell me).

No need for nets, just use running shoes as goal posts. It's been done before. Drawback : one player per team playing barefoot (or 2 guys with only one shoe, not much better). Barefoot goalie would be okay, I guess. You see, tout s'arrange.

Its a tad cold right now for no shoes

But we can have nets, they were just in storage.

Too cold? Ha! Back in my day we were glad if we just had socks. Socks and an orange at Christmas. Why, we used to walk 8 miles to school, both ways uphill and against the wind. We broke branches off trees to use as sticks and used horse droppings as a puck. Lemme see, am I forgetting anything?

 

[Brass]

I'll try to fix that semi goalie problem

Hey guys! All things considered it was alright. I was pleased to see a lot of the HF crew turn out! I think it is safe to say we all had fun but the major issue is Goaltending which should be solved ASAP...

Basszor can you please call the city and ask them to put the Nets out?

So...Friday guys shall we do it again?

Ha! back in my day, if we wanted fries and a hot dog, we ate raw potatoes and had to kill a pig. A Coke was water with dirt in it.

Did you need to wrestle a raptor to get the pig?

Nope, by then, McPhee had wiped out all the raptors.

There's also a sick roller hockey rink in TMR, near the rec centre. I played there every day last summer.

They can't do anything untill there's no more ice but they should put them out soon. But we shouldn't use garbage can again as nets. We had all the trouble in the world scoring a goal

When's the next game?? I'm in for sure (if we still have room). I have a set of goalie equipment and a net too. Where do/did you guys play?

Friday. And if you bring the goalie gear and net we'd be REALLY happy. Note: there's always room for people

Btw I still don't know what time we're going to play. However, Mike (Giovanni) will probably tell us before the end of the day.
