Winter Hockey - Game 18

The Renegades played a game on Friday night against the first place Trojans.  These guys were moved down from a higher division earlier in the season, and our team has only played them once so far this year.  I missed that earlier game so I personally have not played against them before.  The game was in the old Coronation Arena.  Kind of a neat old barn, but the ice was really soft and rough and didn't make for very good conditions.  Two of our better players were serving suspensions, but we had a full roster of 15 skaters and a goalie.  We didn't play a very good game and were badly outshot and lost by a score of 7-2.  These guys are definitely the best team in the division and we are going to have to find a way to beat them if we want any success in the playoffs.  This win puts the Trojans further ahead of us in first place, and depending on the outcome of some of the other divisional games, it remains to be seen whether or not we can retain our hold on second place.
