Pretty happy tonight, sitting here all stinky with unwashed sweat on me, bag still needing unpacked, and its midnight.
Played with my good team, and they lived up to it. They dug me out of a 2-0 hole, and we held on to win 4-3. First goal, was a deflection off of one of their forwards about 10 feet out and not much i could do for it. Second one, yeah, i needed to stop. I KNEW he was going to back hand it, and he did. Right between the pads. The d-man that is our best skater, and probably player, actually yelled at me, and he was right. So i decided that false confidence is better then none and played like it actually mattered. Third one, i lost sight of it behind the net and they got an easy tap in, but the D took the blame on it, but i was flustered. However, shook it off and made some clutch stops to finish it out.
Did take about 4 shots off the cage, and during one frantic scrum, i think i got hit in the cage about 5 times, but i believe only one was the puck, i just couldn't get my damn glove or anything over the puck. I didn't blame the players for slapping at it, just next time i think I'll use my stick more then my damn mask.
So yeah, now we are 7-1, and i hope it continues. Its actually a lot of fun.
