Moose Rampage Over Boxers

The Boxers posted a loss of 3-2 against Rampaging Moose last night (which has us at 3-6 for the season with 7 games to go in the season). The game started poorly, but we did improve as the game went on. Unfortunately we couldn’t get the game tied up to get into overtime. Early in [...]

Alabama Hockey Weekend

Part of the yearly trip to Alabama to visit my mom and family this year was to see Alabama’s Frozen Tide hockey team play in person. When I first found out about the team last year it was at the end of their home season as I was leaving town the afternoon of their last [...]

Polar Bears Get OT Win, Boxers Shut Out

It was double header hockey last night as I played with both the Polar Bears and Boxers. First up was a showdown of the winter animals as the Polar Bears took on the Sled Dogs, a game the Bears won 3-2 in overtime. This was a fun game between evenly matched teams with no chippiness [...]

Polar Bears Get Lost in a Blizzard, Trading Tweets with @pghpenguins

The Polar Bears gave a good fight last night against the Blizzard but ended up coming up short, losing 4-1. We played  a strong game, but, despite a lot of time in the offensive zone, we couldn’t get pucks into the net. In reality, this score should be 2-1. Two of the Blizzard goals were [...]
