The thread lives! Did I mention that my grandson's team won the league championship but got knocked out of first place in the final playoffs.

Faster, better moves, better position, better offense, better defense, just unreal.............. is it little wonder the coach played this kid 95% of the game.

You shake you head some times and wonder how one kid can be SO much better at the Pee Wee age but we all know it happens!

Oh well, it's almost time to say GO WINGS! Heck, it is time to say GO WINGS!
no you dint

you should be very proud of that lil shtick pusher

... and I shake my head that the coach puts him on the ice the entire game. One of the most important aspects of hockey is teamwork and when you give one kid the reigns like that, they never develop the sense of team.

The team I played on last year had 1 guy who was vastly superior to the rest of us... it was nice being on his line (easy assists to pad the stats ) but he spent way too much time on the ice.

Fell 1 pt short in my fantasy league. Ended up dead last in SOG and couldn't get 2 goals today to jump the 4th place guy in that category.

Better than last year, at least (got 6th of 9).

The last games of the regular season are usually pretty dull... all the playoff seeds are set, guys are resting, etc.

I cannot even find my post where I made the bold prediction that the Caps would win some games.
