Injury Update
Greg Parker visited the rink Monday night. He isn’t on solid food yet, but looked good, and spoke well. That puck to the jaw did some damage. For those who hate the cage, like me, consider getting one. I don’t like it even after about 18 months of use, but it has saved me from some wild sticks and pucks. Let’s be smart and stay safe.
New 50+ League Offering

Opportunities To Skate
Drop-In ice time is being organized on www.PerfectSkate.com You will find a few lists you can join, with more coming. I run the Gears Beer lists. I created a 50+ only list for future skates. A Friday night at 7:30 pm skate is available by getting approved on the Gears Beer Private List. Call or text Dave if you run into any challenges, or to let him know you registered and are waiting. Once approved you can Book skates easily from the Skates list on the drop-down menu.
Wednesday is still going at 3 pm. Just show up.
Tournaments
Good luck to the three teams out of our barn heading to Glacier for the Stanley Keg Tournament. We have two 50+ and one 60+ team heading to compete.
(Side note: the 60+ team scrimmaged the Hamlin Pub 50+ team at Dort last Tuesday. That was a blast and more competitive than expected. Some might even say that 60+ won 5-3 🙂 Let’s not split hairs on one or two post goals before the sub goalie arrived:)
Did you know that there are SIX 70+ teams in the Stanley Keg Tournament? That gives me hope and should for you as we march towards that age!
