My Renegades Hockey Team seems to have turned things around. We had a bit of a struggle getting a full time goaltender lined up at the beginning of the year. The guy we eventually settled on lost the first five games. That was more of an issue with the way the team played in front of him, though admittedly he was a little rusty. He has won the last two games for us and the team in general is playing a lot better. Goalie Steve broke his toe a few weeks ago and was out of the line up for a couple of games but since he returned he has been really solid. Our team has won four of our last five games. Most recently, since Steve returned, we played last Monday against the "Shootin' Blanks" at Tipton Arena. The score went back and forth for the entire game and ended up tied 6-6 at the end of regulation. We managed to win in a shootout. Then this morning we played the Trojans at KofC Arena. We jumped out to an early 4-0 lead and then hung on to win 6-2. It got a little rough and chippy at the end and there were a lot of penalties handed out as things got a bit out of hand. But it was a fun game to play. Through the two victories I ended up with 5 assists, which on a personal level sees the old guy climbing up the stats chart. The team is now in fourth place in our division with about a dozen games left in regular season.
