Lololololollies!
Made it to my game tonight. PHEW! I got about an hour's worth of lost pre-riding the Sea Otter XC course earlier in the afternoon and wasn't sure if I'd get to the rink in time. Fortunately, I did, and all was well, except for the fact that my legs were so tired from riding that they hurt just walking down the stairs. I'd considered showing up to not-flake and then asking one of the Maroon skaters from the game before ours to sub for me, but once I was at the rink I entered hockey hockey hockey hockey hockey mode and knew that I absolutely had to get on the ice. My legs felt terrible at first, but once I warmed up I didn't notice them much at all. I tried to focus more on positioning and plays than speed, and that helped a lot. I even scored our first goal. Whaddaya know, hockey's not all about speed. There's hope for me yet!
We got off to a slow start, but after from the end of the 2nd period to the middle of the middle of the 3rd we put in 6 goals. Final score: 7-2. I'm hoping this is what Destiny looks like the next time we face the other team. Hello, Magical Line of Scoring... and Scoringness, how about a rematch?
Just kidding... sort of. It seems that no one has figured out how to counter the Magic of teh MLoSaS yet, but given that there are only 3 teams in this division, we will have plenty of opportunities to do so.

Vivian, I am not sure whether you got our earlier e-mails. I've been using the "ocf" account.
