My Renegades hockey team wrapped up the regular season with a win over the Ducks. This saw us finish in 6th place, out of 8 teams. Our playoff matchup is a best-of-3 first round against the Performance Graphics Panthers. These guys finished the season in third place. We played them twice during the winter season and lost both games.
Our first playoff game was on Sunday March 12th at 8:45PM at Glengarry Arena. We started the game with a parade to the penalty box, including a tripping penalty to yours truly. But we weathered that storm and jumped out to an early 3-0 lead. The Panthers broke the shutout in the second period with a goal, and then another. We added two more to put the score up to 5-2. The Panthers put on a big push, attempting to even things out. They got a lucky goal off a deflection off one of our players, and then added another with their goalie pulled in the dying minute. But we hung on for a hard fought 5-4 victory and the lead in the series. Game two will be on St. Patricks Day.
