Refereeing league games - 2 hours

Refereed in my old league.

First game was was with the team I was supposed to be playing on for the year. The other team with a lot of guys I have played with. It was nice to compare my skating against theirs, lol.

Second game was two team from the novice level. Ugly, ugly hockey. Took a hard spill when I was transitioning from forwards to backwards leading a breakaway into the attacking zone. Full out body slam on my back and bounced the back of my head too. The helmet did it’s job :slight_smile:

Quads were really sore, but my knees felt better.

Refereed all three games of my league tonight. Knees hurt, but it was tolerable.

I did get leveled by a player who had his head down and I had no where to go.

The scrimmage was a team made up of the normal Wednesday night guys versus a team for an upcoming tournament. Score was 10-3. We kicked their asses, lol.

I made several good passes, caught passes and tied up a defenseman and screened the goalie for a goal.

My knees felt good and it showed in my game.

Knees where sore but ok. Refereeed two games back in my old league. Tossed a player out of the game because he decided he had to go to using f-bombs at me when I stopped play because it looked like the goalie had covered the puck. Started with 2 minutes in the box for unsportmanlike and escalated to a 5 and a 10 when he threatened me from the penalty box.

Seriously, it’s a fucking beer league game. And not a very good beer league.

League game - 1 hour

Lost 6-7. Final game of regular season. We had them 5-2 at one point in the second period, and the foot came off the pedal.

We get to play the same team again tomorrow for the first playoff game.

Playoff Game - 1 hour

Well that could have went better. Lost 3-6. We got the first goal and then gave up four. As a team we needed to be more disciplined on short shifts.

This was the most fun I have had in a hockey league since I started playing. Looking forward to next season.

Sorry about the loss, but glad you had fun! Sometimes that is even more important than winning. Okay, that might be a stretch, cuz I like winning. :wink:

Which is why I stick with the hard stuff. Just knock it back and taste isn’t an issue.

Got the puck away from the best player on the white bench. Always nice to get the complement of “Fuck you, Tom” when I make a good play :slight_smile:
