kmfdm86 112 Report post Posted December 8, 2016 So my inline team played tonight. Lots of new guys and we're finally starting to all mesh. We won our game in epic fashion, 7-2. In the last four minutes I blocked a slap shot with my thigh right above where the padding on my compression shorts end. Gonna have a nice welt there. I've got three raised circles from the pegs on the puck where it hit me. Lol. Doesn't hurt too bad but I'm waiting for it to bruise to see how much puck detail I get. Haha.

IPv6Freely 2093 Report post Posted December 12, 2016 I had a shutout in our league semi-final game, 3-0. This was in the locker room before and during the game. 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fat Buzz 70 Report post Posted December 12, 2016 That thing is fucking awesome... now I'm picturing you sitting in the locker room having tea and praying to it, like that guy and his statue "Jobu" in the movie Major League. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yea we started calling it Jobu. A few of us prayed to it. Haha. It was made by a street vendor in Mexico while some of my teammates were down there last week. Amazing.

IPv6Freely 2093 Report post Posted December 19, 2016 Three-peat achieved! This was especially sweet after being in last place by a mile this year because we could never get the full roster playing. Many nights with 6 or 7 skaters. 3 goals against in two playoff games with a shutout. This was a come from behind win against our Dead Deer rivals too . 9 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_game 452 Report post Posted January 1, 2017 Im kicking off 2017 going from the venting spot to the sweet spot. The scary spinal/neck surgery that came out of the blue was a success. My surgeon was excellent and he said it's only a matter of time before I'm as good as new. All I can do now is take it slow and heal up. All I can really say is if you got something health-wise going on, don't wait, get it checked out. And if you have to push for an MRI, X-RAY or whatever, do it, it's your body and it might save your life. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

strosedefence34 175 Report post Posted January 10, 2017 A friend of mine asked me to come to a stick in puck at the local outdoor rink. We ended up getting a 2 hour long pond hockey game going. It was so much fun sometimes I wonder why I still play in a league and just don't play pick up. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kmfdm86 112 Report post Posted January 14, 2017 I finally did it. After all the horrible timings and misses that led to turnovers during a game. I finally scored a goal from behind the goal line. Haha. That's what you get for leaning out too far from the post. Bounced it right off the guys shoulder. Lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the_game 452 Report post Posted January 14, 2017 2 week postop doctors from my neck surgery, X-rays look good & doc is impressed with how well my strength has returned to my right side. Still can't lift anything more than 5 lbs, but the best news is I can start weening myself off using the neck brace and once I'm comfortable without it doc said I can start driving again. They're baby steps but slowly and surely I'm getting back on track! 7 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
