With the rain, came the cancellation at the Lanspeary Park. 90,000 ticket holders were told sorry, ‘no can do on the Hockey Venue,’ so 24,000 (maximum capacity) at the Kapusta Kow, got to go to the game and the rest, will get their money back. Sorry Tomcat fans, but mother Nature was messing with the Tomcats and even St. Felix could do nothing about it.
If you are thinking, this was the next level, before the NHL, you were correct. The hockey was intense for all the games, but in the end, the Chico Cool Cats ended up with 5 points and a plus 3.
A record was set with the amount of teams and the amount of players…”This is a fantastic night, if you look at it, we were cancelled at one place but here we are at our home and what a great night and four teams on a Tuesday night, that is a first,” indicated the Falcon.
The Three star selection, as selected by La Bamba, 3rd star, Howie, Second star was Matt D and the First star on the night, Adrian D.
La Bamba also handed out some trinkets, to the Best Defensive Forward, Kevin L, to the Best Forward Carson Q and to the Best Defensive Player, Tim D .
First star Adrian Q was very excited about being selected first star.
At Purples, for the last night of celebration, the boys enjoyed some pizza and some beverages. “Great night of hockey and fun,” stated Sunny, “will miss all the boys,” Sunny added.
Super solid goes out to Chevy who sponsored the night and long sleeve shirts were handed out to each and every player that participated.
Thanks to Zaba and the Bundura for Reffing.
Thanks to The Turk the Minister of Pizza and to Zaba his trusty assistant for a fantastic job on the pizza. The Turk pointed out, “If you look at one of the pizzas, there are onions and peppers, you see, I too can be converted slightly, just so you know,” The Turk concluded with a gracious smile.
A new Minister position was announced…Hollywood has become Minister of Pussy and Tomcat Related Matters.
I guess one funny moment, (and I was not there, I just heard about it from one of the players that wished to remain anonymous) was that one of the new guys, was standing by the white board, as the schedule was being drawn up and there was some discussion whether or not a Championship Game should be played. “Hey Stevo, do we play a Championship Game,” one of the guys asked. Stevo had no time to answer, when this young punk, with 30 seconds on the stage said “Yeah, oh yeah, we have to play a Championship Game.” Stevo burst out in laughter and said, (and remember I am just repeating the quote as I was not there), “who the fuck is this guy, what the fuck are you talking about a Championship game? No, No Championship Game is to be played,” Stevo chortled. And guess what, non was played (The four Captains agreed on not having a Championship Game).
That’s it for hockey till next year. The Tomcat Golf Outing is Friday June 13. Follow Snowpants emails for developments and further information.
Tomcats announced this morning, that both Howie and Tim D have been released out right by the Tomcats. No reason was provided to the media.
Hey, whilst you are off this summer, golfing, BBQ’ing, going for walks and thinking of next season, do you think I could put my Harry Ballsonue?
