Oh, that makes sense. I guess they could try to run the eval thingy right after your leagues championship game in order to get a schedule created. I was in a league where they added two new teams one week after the start. It screwed up the scheduling. For whatever reason, we were playing two other teams for like 30% of the time.

Well, it sounds like the schedule is hinging on how many total teams there are going to be at each level. My suggestion would be for your league to push up the eval thingy sooner, like maybe 6-8 weeks before you begin.

Not a dick move, but I don't know why the ref would let a player dictate when the clock gets run out. The ref should have had the face-off with 6 seconds left and let the players on either team dictate how aggressive or not-aggressive they play after the face-off.

I was using a Sher-wood BPM150 last year. I got it on sale from hockey monkey. It's 415 grams. Really light to me, coming from two-piece carbon fiber shaft/blade combos. I cut off a couple inches due to my height so I guess it's a sub 400 gram stick. I ended up getting a flex 95. Should have gone with 85 looking back. I like the feel on slap shots and snap shots.

I would suggest looking for clearance hockey skates. Any model from the past 3 years will be lighter and stiffer than your 152's. You could always get them replaced with TUUK holders. Skates holder designs have improved through the years, but they still are riveted to the boot.

What is your street shoe size and what is your skate size?

There's a physical therapy business I've been to in the past: shoulder, leg, hip stuff. I'm like a repeat customer.

The surgery was successful, i.e. I didn't die, and my feet and legs work. I do have a lot of pain at the surgical site.

Thanks for responding. My lower back pain/sciatica symptoms are slowly getting worse. It started with tightness in glutes and hamstrings, chronic. Now, I get tingling down the right leg, and/or right foot. Sometimes I can jog a bit without any issues, like to cross the street faster because a car is coming, and sometimes, that short 5 step jog to the sidewalk is very painful. Sometimes, my right foot is dragging, when I start to walk, involuntarily. During one game, my right leg was also dragging while skating forward. I've had various surgeries and orthopedic surgeries, ACL reconstruction, shoulder labrum repair, hip arthroscopy. This would be my first spinal surgery. I'm a bit worried, but am also putting my faith in God to not worry. My mom has sciatica and had back surgery. Didn't increase the pain, but didn't decrease it, and laminectomy was performed. No fusion.

Hi, yeah so my body is breaking down. I had hip arthroscopy earlier this year and I thought that was related to my back pain. After I recovered from my hip surgery, the back pain came back. I told my doctor about it at a check up and he said it was possible sciatica. I go to a neurologist, he orders an x-ray and MRI. I looked at the images and one of the vertebrae isn't aligned. 🤕 Lumbar region, L3 and L4. So that was causing nerves to get touched. I'm getting surgery soon. Anyone get this done and go back to hockey or did you just hang up the gloves?

I live a boring life. No lie. I'm sorry. 🤣

It would be nice but nobody cares. In my league, they only track goals and suspensions on the league's online page. Goals, assists, shots on goal, save percentage, etc. no stats are kept.

Anything from 2 to 44 unless your goalie has a high 20s/low 30's already taken. It's not rocket science.
