As of this date, we have completed two cycles through the teams and strengths and weaknesses are beginning to show. Not to worry, because there will likely be shifts in the standings and in the fortunes of teams several times before the Round Robin, the final arbiter. I know that all of you regularly check the website for the latest standings.
However, to try and ensure that the standings are as even as possible, there may need to be a balancing between teams, perhaps before the Christmas break. I’ll work with the Captains on that.
At this stage of the season, I have had to replace several players - whether due to injury, work schedules or personal plans. Right now, there are two vacancies to be filled a.s.a.p. As a reminder, if you feel that, for whatever reason, you can no longer maintain your team’s schedule, please let your Captain know as soon as possible. It takes time to arrange for a replacement.
We all know that stuff happens on the ice and penalties are called. The vast majority are inadvertant. Others, such as stopping a breakaway may be intentional. Let’s all keep our cool, play smart hockey, limit our time in the box and ensure that everyone is free from injury. We are keeping stats and you might be notified, either by your Captain or me, about an increasing number of penalties. And you don’t want that to happen!!
See you on the ice,
