Winning is good...

Winning against a full strength Whitley Bay team is even better! Ok, so we won 6-3, Becky was playing so they can't claim their team was under strength like they did last time we beat them, however, our team was, like I explained in my last entry. The game started well enough and it was evenly matched and we went into the break 0-0. Came back out for the second period and they scored fairly soon after. It was partly my fault because I was standing in front of the shot and Claire couldn't see it, but the puck must have literally gone in through a 1 centimetre gap or something because when I turned around, Claire was covering the part of the net where it went in! I was in line with the shooter, so it must have been a pretty good shot to get through there. Ah well, anyway, we went up the other end and scored before long so we were equal. God knows how Julie got it in because she was behind the goal line when she scored, but we weren't complaining! After that, we took the lead through Rachel and held onto it for a while before they came back again. I think that was it for that period...but I'm not entirely sure! In the third, we scored three unanswered goals before they got a consolation goal towards the end of the period when there was a mix-up between Rachel and Claire and they squeezed the puck past Claire. The game itself was pretty clean, only two penalties all game - one for each team. Unfortunately it was me that got our penalty for checking from behind, but I have to say if the girl hadn't lost the puck and slowed down and turned round then I would have hit her head on and I don't think it would have been called, but nevermind. I only hit her in the first place coz she wiped Lindsay out and didn't get anything. Their penalty was for a tripping call and they scored their third goal while their player was in the penalty box, but it didn't matter since we went straight up the other end and scored ourselves. So yeah,it was a good game, we all enjoyed it and we're now 3 points clear at the top of the table! XD Yay!

I was just looking at the stats for roller hockey and apparently I've scored a goal for the seniors! I'm not sure when or how that happened, but I'm not gonna complain about it. It's gonna bug me that I can't remember who I scored against though.
