Renegades Winter Hockey Season Comes to an End

The playoff run of my Renegades Hockey Team has come to an end.  The guys swept the first best of three series against the Trojans while I was away in Nordegg doing my electrical rough in.  The next round was against the Bulldogs.  We won the first game but then lost the next two.  The second game was among the worst we have played as a team in quite a while.  We had a short bench, were missing a couple of our best players, had a back up goalie, and played with very little emotion.  The Bulldogs, facing elimination, came out with a determined attitude and a full bench.  We were down 6-1 after the first period, and then started to play a little better.  We still lost that game 8-2. 
Last night we played the final game of the best of three series.  We were down 2-0 to start, but battled back in what became a really close game.  The lead changed hands a few times during the game.  They were out with a full bench once again, and we were short a few guys.  We just couldn't rally back at the end and lost by a score of 7-5.  This brings our winter season to an end, and we will have a break from hockey for about three weeks or so.  The summer season gets underway in early May.
