Take That

Hey, it's a hockey update. I have no idea when I last posted about hockey. Last night's game was good. We played really well. Actually we probably spent what seemed to be almost half the game in our opponents zone. We won 8-5 (and we are now 4-1 for the season). The only reason they got 5 goals was last night was our goalie's third time in net. He was just a little new to the position. I had a goal and an assist in the game. I also took a spill and slid into the boards directly following my assist. I got tripped, caught some air, and landed hard on my thigh and elbow. Now my thigh hurts a little. However, I saved the best for last. In the second periond, in our opponents zone, we win the face off and the puck goes straight back to our defenseman, who then takes the one-timer, the shot has a good amount of power to it, and hell I'm sure the goalie would have felt it if it had made it to him. But NO! That one-timer hits me directly in the back of my leg, right above my calf. OW!! I kept playing and all, it's not like it took me out of the game. But it did hurt. So to sum it up: a goal, an assist, a slide into the boards, a fall after being tripped, and blocked a one-timer with my leg. Yep, it was a good game.
