Tigers Lose in OT, Ordinals Snowed by Blizzard

Jeff -

It was a rough Saturday night on the ice.
The Tigers met the Hotshots, which featured a guest appearance by the Lions goalie Chris Brand. It was unclear how we’d fare against this goalie. Peter is difficult to play against so to see Chris in net was not a welcome surprise. However, we rose to the [...]

Chelsea Challenge Gold, Ordinals Win Too

Jeff -

Chelsea Challenge weekend has come and gone and I’m banged up and sore after the successful run at the gold medal with the Hartford Whalers  in the Recreational B Division (which was the middle division in this year’s challenge).
Besides five Challenge games I also subbed in with the Ordinals for their match up against the [...]

Friday Geek Out: Chelsea Challenge

Jeff -

Starting tonight I take part in the New York City Gay Hockey Association’s Chelsea Challenge for the eighth time! My first time was June 2002. I’d played maybe a half-dozen games by the time the Challenge rolled around and I was scared playing that year. I was on a team where I didn’t know many [...]

Tigers Post Sizeable Loss, Wizards Lose in OT

Jeff -

Yes, both teams lost last night. Yet it was a fun and exciting night of hockey.
The Tigers met up with the Scapegoats, number on in the division and currently undefeated. We didn’t turn that around last night. They beat us 8-1. That said, this is one of those games were the score doesn’t accurately reflect [...]

Tigers Win, Two Points For Me!

Jeff -

After a couple weeks of losing hockey it was good to be in a winning place last night. The Tigers dominated the Rockets and won 6-0. Making it an even better night was that I picked up a goal and an assist, and played some pretty good D along the way too.
The goal was very [...]

So Much Loss All Over Again

Jeff -

Last night was a repeat of May 16, which means it wasn’t pretty.
The Tigers started the loosing streak of the evening with a 7-1 defeat handed to us from the Sled Dogs.  This was a weird game for us. We had to take care of an injury (broken leg) of one of our players mid-way [...]

The Great Sakte Break-In of 2009

Jeff -

With no games this week, it was the perfect opportunity to use the ice time to break-in the new skates. The last time I broke in skates was June 2006, just ahead of going to Montreal for the Outgames. The new RB 9K skates finally showed up last week after taking a few diversions on [...]

So Much Loss

Jeff -

The loss piled up all over the place last night. The good news (if you could call it that) was that none of them were large losses.
The Tigers started things off with a loss against the Scapegoats. This is the top team in the division and we did pretty good here, narrowly going down 3-2. [...]
