  1. well after being released from my junior team as a 20 year old earlier this season i joined my brothers team (which is basically jr c) with another buddy who was supposed to be playing jr a as well but like me had his season ended by a major injury. Anyways we won game 2 of the best of 3 for our league finals tonight to win the league. But this is in the venting spot because we won 21-3 and was the most boring game ive ever played! Before anyone says anything about running up the score that bad this team we played against talked trash all year and even throughout tonights game, even after being down by 20 goals at one point. It was just a boring ass game to be playing but hey we won i guess.


  2. Before we burn the girl at the stake, what was the nature of the pictures and texts?

    Haha naked pics and talking about how some days she wishes she could pretend she was single. Life goes on and shit happens. I'm 20 years old and been through alot worse things than this. Even though it hurts a lot i know its not the end of the world.

  3. well the gf of just over a year kinda cheated on me. Not in the sense of actually hooking up with someone else but well on its way to that point. I am not the type to really freak out about innocent conversation with an old friend but to the point they were at sending pics and stuff along those lines really put me over the edge. Dunno what to do now. Havent broke it off yet but im gonna wait it out a little while and calm myself before making any decisions. Friggen broads i tell ya!


  4. Just got cut from my junior team last night. Team wasnt doing that well and they said they needed to make room for younger guys to build for the future (im 20). So this season has basically been a waste. Broke my hand in camp played four games and this happens. Worst part is the coaches told me they wanted me to stay because im their type of player and they were happy with my play (It was the gms decision). They've basically gotten rid of all the out of town guys who go to all off ice stuff and are now left with all the home town guys who either dont go to any training stuff the team does or do go but show up high.They offered me a coaching postion with the team now. Just a really shitty situation and I dont really know where to go from here. It sucks because I made alot of good buddies on that team. Not the way I wanted to end my Junior career.


  5. 2 of my buddies have gotten stabbed in the last little while, one was during the vancouver riots and the other was about a week ago at a party, he got stabbed in the neck 3 times and ended up with 60 stitches. Thankfully they are both expected to fully recover but thats just scary


  6. first round of the playoffs our teams down 2 games to 0 in a best of 5 series, we ended up coming back in the series and capping it off with a 4-3 win in ot last night. Felt really good especially because the team we were playing basically tried to intimidate us all series (most of our guys are 17-18 theirs are 19-20) so it feels really good to move on to the next round of the playoffs


  7. after a rough weekend for our team we had a meeting and prett much let out everything on our minds to our coaches and it went really well. Finally found a curve i feel comfortable with (might be hard to find when they break though) and our teams going on a trip to edmonton for a week to just get away. The trips gonna be awesome watching the oilers practice and the oilers blackhawks game and of course west ed mall. Very happy right now


  8. lost a game last night 2-1 in a shootout and after the game our coach made some remarks to everyone which i wont get into detail with but it was along the lines of eff you guys you dont wanna play for me i wont coach you anymore. He lost the little respect he did have from the team. Its like last season all over again


  9. Might be tough to find another team. What starts out as a perceived lack of commitment to fitness turns into a reputation for laziness. Did they give you specifics such as they see you fading late in games or losing too many battles for the puck? Is it your diet that they see as a problem and you're carrying around a couple more pounds of fat than they'd like? I'd say that you are better off trying to prove that you can be committed and belong.

    Chippa's right... Sometimes you have to bite your toungue in situations like this... Tips and Lampliter, I would suggest you swallow your pride and talk to the decision makers and see what they suggest you work on.... It's a learning experience for you guys. You can't win them all right? Here's an oppurtunity for you guys to swallow your pride, learn from your mistakes and use it as motivation to improve and shove it in their faces. I don't know about everyone else but all the hours I spent in the gym and on the ice were because of the people that said I wasn't good enough or didn't have it, not the ones that did

    Chippa they basically told me in practice i look a step behind, i have played barely any games this year due to suspension for sticking up for our goalie getting ran (which the coaches love) and a concussion about 2 weeks ago. I have decided to pursue proving them wrong the head coach pretty much told me he needed to send a message to me so im going to try and improve. The fact that they gave me a workout plan which i have been following and told them i have been following it. They said they dont see it at all which is bs as i feel much better conditioning wise since i have started the workout plan. Its just very frustrating to be told this when i have been working on it and the fact that there is other players on our team smoking a pack a day and drinking nights before games and that sort of stuff which the coaches know. Anyways thanks for the advice guys. Hopefully i can make the best out of the situation and come out of it a better player


  10. Was dropped from my team tonight due to said bullshit.

    same thing happened to me man, they said i dont seem commmited enough to my fitness which is complete bullshit. They said i have until the jan 1 deadline to prove that i belong on the team or they wont sign me again. Cant stand that bs, i think im just going to use the icetime to keep improving until i can hopefully find another team to sign with


  11. after only playing 8 of our teams 21 games so far this season due to suspension and trying out for jr a i ended up getting a concussion this weekend. Doesnt seem to be a major one but a concussion is still serious and looks like i might be out for another week or 2 if all goes well with getting healthy
