most Mineral Spring guys went to Orchard Park Roller Rink to play

allen is way better than i was expecting but hes still woefully inaccurate sometimes and idk if thats something that can be fixed

Awww man

Loved that place.

I played goalie for 2 seasons there on Sunday mornings around 2012ish? Our first season we went 0-32. There were some wily veteran teams. We had no idea what we were getting into. Randy is a really nice guy.

Sad to hear

He let too many guys make mega teams. should've brought in draft seasons way earlier. Oh well. great place to play. I played at lathrop too with the old Amerks. when I get my knee fixed i'll be joining my brother again at OPRR. My wish is to play with my son some day. He's 15 now, and he plays travel ice. maybe in a few years I can get him into floor.

Wait...

They paid Nylander 7 per?

The Leafs are fooooooked

Randy warned us when we signed up that the Sunday morning league was maybe the best one at the time, but we were in our early 20s, and most of my buddies worked restaurant jobs at night. Sunday morning was the only time we could play. Those guys absolutely feasted on us. By the end of the first season, I think we gained some respect though, because we came every week to get our asses handed to us (and we paid for the privilege).

Good times

Sunday morning and Wednesday evening the best two leagues

Freddie Lugo's team on Sunday was unbeatable (until they got older)

yeah, he had a good November...however, i'll agree with many that he had a rough October and looked somewhere between meh and ok for most of that month
- Michael Pachla

How much of his good November is attributable to being on Eichel's line?

he had nice games without eichel, too

they don't need anything special on the top pp with jack, skinner, skunk and risto controlling much the play...maybe someone to man the other point who can get a shot through, creep in on the weak side and be ready to high-tail it back to the d-zone on a turnover..

as for pommer he's doing his annual disappearing act--1g, 3a in his last 13 games
- Michael Pachla

How much of Pommer's disappearing act is attributable to his no longer being on Eichel's line?

I think anyone playing with Eichel and Skinner is going to rack up points. I'd consider moving Sam back onto 2nd or 3rd line to see if he can help generate some scoring there. Insert Pommer back onto the 1st line and I don't think there would be a substantial decrease in point production from that line.

So do we get Saros tonight?

I've been wondering if Pominville is getting rotated on and off that line because he can't handle the minutes anymore

It's a combo of that and Samson Reinhart being an absolute stud muffin.

Give or take, about a 100% chance

If this is already true at this point of the season, we cannot bring him back next year even for a very team friendly cap number. No room on this roster for him next year.

Get a divorce. Avoid Lockport at all costs.....

I'm debating crossing the Town line or burning my skin with the Lockport air. Either option is a punishment, but do I enjoy a week in the dog house or skin cancer?

I hear the chemo costs are less than a divorce. I'm going to serve my wife on Christmas eve.
