In regular two team play, If there is a tie after two periods of play (one game) there will be two-2 minute overtime periods.

First Mini in a long time, “I think, you will see with us getting closer to the Christmas Break, more and more guys will show up, I think you might see two more mini’s in the next two weeks,” stared Sparky and added, “Don’t complain, it’s better them one spare.”
“Tomcats are getting older, we need some new players,” said President Rocky at the Press Conference on Monday December 3. Enter Kramden, New kid on the block, a Tomcat 4th rounder in 2006, Kramden, finally made it to the big club. He took a regular shift and even killed a penalty. “I knew if I worked hard and just kept my nose to the grind stone, that maybe one day I could play in the big league and here I am, pinch me, I must be dreaming,” Kramden said, holding back tears.
Track Suits were on display, if you are interested, please get sized and hand in your $40 to Stevo. You do not want to be the only one not wearing a 30 year anniversary Windsor Tomcat Track Suit on Tournament day in the picture do you? It’s only 40 dollars and…you can keep it for the next 40 years. NOTE: The Tomcat BoD decided the suit will be a dark grey jacket with black pants. Also, jacket can be ordered with or without a hood.
KUDOS
This is how great it is to be involved with the Tomcats, The Turk, who is unable to play due to a lower body injury, shows up and brings a 24. The Sea Lion who only refs helping the Tomcats a great deal, brings a 40 banger of Rye for the Tomcats to enjoy in a few weeks, because he is unable to be there. Rocky, just because, brings a bottle of Rum for the Tomcats to enjoy at the Christmas party because he is not able to be there and El Choppo, who missed a few weeks, felt bad, is not a drinker brings a 24, just because. Put her there boys, you are the Tomcat Spirit that everyone talks about.
A Legendary idea
La Bamba, future Vice President with the Tomcats, hell, maybe the world, suggested that next year, Tomcats who no longer play, would/could be Captains of a team, you could have the Bundura, Sea Lion, The Legend, Rexy pick a team, they would have to be out a few weeks in a row to see the players, they do not know. Then why not add Bucko, Crispy, Mez and Finner as a coach behind the bench. You could have a coach and a GM. What a novel Idea, by La Bamba. I am sure the Tomcats will be pursing this idea.
December 18 is last night of hockey, it is the Tomcat Christmas Party downstairs. Tomcats paying for pizza, beer and spirits. All they ask is that you have a designated driver if you plan to indulge.
Hey whilst you are thinking of riddle that is similar to the headline, such as ‘ How can people without noses smell?…. ANSWER ‘If they don’t shower’, do you think I can put my Harry Ballsonue
