No One Ever Forgets Their First
10 Pete the 🥩- His first goal was unspectacular and possibly unintentional. But it is what it is. Him and Jared had the same amount of goals. More than any other part of his game, I’d like to see him work on his face-off dropping ability.
9 Jack - Played as expected.
8 Brendon (+1) - Grading on a curve of course, Brendon played great along side Nick. He seemed to simplify his game; suppressing his inclination to try and trick the dark players. Bottom line is he’s coachable. Just go and watch the flashback if you don’t believe me.
7 Andrew (-4) - Played well enough. Unfortunately his 3 goals, which are usually plenty from someone on defense, weren’t enough.
6 Ward - How can you expect ward to get in a groove when you keep moving him from center to wing to defense back to center? Give him a position and leave him there and he’ll be fine, as long as it’s not defense or center.
5 JB (-4) - Zack Morris method has worked fairly well so far thanks to Borges. But his “do as I say not as I do” method didn’t work quite so well. You can’t tell billy “nothing gets behind us” (exact quote) and then try and step up to keep a 50/50 ball in against Brett 5 seconds later.
4 Nick (E) - If he ever retires again, he may want to think about coaching. Moving Brett to left to help Brendon......Belichekian.
3 Johnny (+4) - Dare I say he was better on face offs than Borges all night. He ruined Brett’s bid at a 5 goal game.
2 Dave (+4) - There were long stretches where the white team was gassed and unable to get back on defense and where Pete was at the bench trying to recover from a ball that grazed his thigh leaving Dave to make some heroic stops.
1 Brett (+1) - I would love to see the team difficulty rating from Sunday. All this talk of how white team was expected to win is a load. Especially when the player who was able to choose what team he wanted says it. If a team loses with the better goalie, it’s because he had an off night. If a team loses with the lesser goalie, well of course, they had no chance. Brett was able to identify the weak link on the dark team and attack attack attack. I’m surprised dark team didn’t try the same thing seeing as it was 5 against 3.5 all night.
Honorable Mention - Billy T: He has a Moe’s hooded sweatshirt. And nothing he did Sunday can take that away.

Well done WPR
I loved the Ward line. I LOLed
Are we playing this week?
Brett and I work well together on the same team. .... well, Brett and anyone, I guess. ....... except Jared. ....speaking of which, I think WPR forgot to add his name to the list. Must have been an oversight....
I like to think after these past few weeks of production from Johnny, I wouldn’t have to ask but.......STATS?!?!?!
Easy there Nick, 3 straight posts? I did still have my name mentioned, the greatest insult is to not even be acknowledged by WPR.
Maybe it was just a ruse to keep you happy :-D
Brett, there's no way I could do the stats this week after not posting after the last time we played! Actually, I'm just missing the scoresheet from week two (it's at home in my goalie bag). If Brendon sends me a picture of that I could possibly get them posted today.
I sent out the text about this Sunday. The rink looks to be available; they will let me know for sure on Friday morning.
I can send John a pic....just watch how fast he gets this done this week...I’m assuming he has a couple days off as do many of us....let’s see if that’s enough time :)
Ok, all three stat sheets sent to John. Booyeah.
Stats are updated!
Today I’m thankful for all the posts and recaps and stats from years past. It truly puts a smile on my face reading old post and arguements. Just read the thread where we killed lee for throwing his stick and was laughing the whole time. It’s a shame to think 8 years from now, it won’t be as enjoyable of a read because of the incomplete records and Frendon deleting all his old posts.
Today, I’m thankful for the fact that I was able to rob Brett of the joy of reading those old posts.
