roster report

china - bevan's been playing well since the beginning of the season. hes really solid on defence and makes some fuckin awesome plays to stop some goals. hes also got great awareness and hand eye coordination as well. if he shot more from the point it would be over, but even as i say that i know that his passes are really key too and he sets up some beauty plays.

kotchie - great hands and pretty good speed as well. hes a good playmaker and sees alot of the play surface most of the time. he set me up with a beauty on my first goal of the year and im pretty sure he could do that anytime as long as the other guy is there to recieve the pass. i find that hes really good at bringin the ball up too, which is key.

Baskie - fuckin awesome goalie. hes the only reason we've won the last 4 games in a row. he hustles his ass off all game long and his energy gets passed onto us.

Mini Vans - regular season

alrighty.... its monday today, which means we had a game yesterday. and it was fuckin GREEAT!
4 wins in a row baby. feels good.

ok so, we got really badly outplayed last nite, it was pretty ruthless. well, i wouldnt use the word ruthless, but it was pretty bad. the other team was really quick and pretty good at passin the ball around. we had 2 penalties given to us in the form of high sticking calls, both by the same guy on the other team and we were absolutely SHIT on the powerplay. now i know somethin we gotta work on.
i wont hesitate to mention the fact that we had only 2 lines all nite long, which might explain why we got outplayed last nite. i know i was breathin heavy a whole lot in the game and suckin wind.


it sucks when you go out to a game expecting the rest of the team to be as hyped about it as you and get there and find out you only have 2 lines today and you'll be double shifting all game and getting outplayed to shit.
maybe im just too competitive, but i want to win this year. i guess i need to motivate my team more.



we had our chances last nite and their goalie was giving up big juicy rebounds all game that we couldnt do anything with.
we got a nice amount of shots on net though.

i think brawley got the first goal and yours truly sniped the game winner with like 5 minutes left, with the help of brawley of course.

we were then given an even better chance to win when the ref muffed a call and gave the other team a high sticking penalty with 2 min (approx) left when the ball went off Baskie's helmet. im not chirpin the call, it was in our favour. ill take it.
so we go on the powerplay till the end of the game and we still couldnt do shit with the fuckin ball, the other team was in our end pressuring for a while and then we were finally able to get it out and waste out the remaining time.

overall, it wasnt an amazing game but we got the W and thats the only thing that really matters. it was nice to be able to get that goal for the team and keep our streak alive.

good game team.
cheers

Mini Vans - regular season

heres the first post about our awesome floor hockey team, and a partial scouting report.
our record isnt too good so far, but after this week it should be respectable enough to actually say what it is.

first off i gotta mention the brawleys, effin deadly combo. the older of the 2 has dangles like a mofo, the younger is sick with a stick as well, and on the same line they dominate.

stabs is awesome at defence, ive seen him break up 2 blatant breakaways so far early into this season and dont expect anything less from him each game.

smiley has wheels like no other on the team. he could single handedly dump, chase, pass the puck out to himself and get a shot off. hes been hustling his ass off lately and it shows in the number of good chances hes gotten.

hacketts playin really well too recently. he was away on a trip but then came back and hes a really good play maker on the lines he plays with.

baskie is our goalie and hes the only reason we have the wins that we have this season. he keeps us in every game and plays like an allstar.

k. johnston is playin really well too so far early in the season. hes got a deadly shot and can pretty much predict where a guy will be and feed him a perfect pass in front of the net.

kelly is hustling his ass off every game. hes gotten close a couple times, he just needs to light the lamp that first time and its on like donkey kong.

dutch is holdin down defence for us when he needs to, and hes got a great slapper from the point.

me... i wear an old ass yellow helmet and run my ass off while im on the floor and try to make some plays.

thats it for now, more reports to come after our game tonite.;


cheers
