Almost a mini to start the year but two last minute cancellations drove the Tomcats to play only two teams. Shout out to Bender for playing out instead of the net since we didn’t need 3 goalies!
No rust to shake off to begin the year. The extra pounds gained over the holidays did not slow any of the Tomcats down. A little too much stick action was happening and quickly dealt with, but reminder despite the tournament coming up, let’s keep in mind each of us wants to go home without cuts/bruises or injuries.
The teams were:
Falcon’s Mighty Ducks – Falcon in net, The Professor, Tonto, Hurricane, Bullwinkle, Green Giant, Chevy, Doc and Snowpants
Terror’s Avalanche – Terror in net, Killer, Shack, Big Ned, Bender, Soupy, Animal and Rocky.
Despite Soupy insisting his team looked weak on paper (this is a weekly complaint by the future President…along with the chosen game ball not being at the precise temperature and softness), the Avalanche took both games.
Goalies looked in tournament form with a plethora of great saves all night long.
Speaking of the tournament – not a great response yet with many guys not available. The Tomcats will chase a few more folks down and may have to play a slimmed down tournament (small teams or even make it a 3 team event) if more guys are not available. Please respond to Soupy and Kamikaze ASAP!
Keep your eyes on the beer list and bring your case in early if you have to miss your night.
Reminder to all Tomcats – If you run into former NHL players at Shotz, please try to not start any more bar fights. We still are on the naughty list at Shotz for the Christmas melee in 2022! We all know Tomcats can easy take down any NHL player, so find comfort in knowing that and just buy the guy a drink instead!
Tomcats Forever!
