Martijn is a man of routine and that cannot be altered when it comes to game day traditions. Everything will simply have to be shifted seven hours forward. Waking up is now at midnight instead of 7 am, so we're pretty much going nocturnal here. Head to the rink and go out for a solo morning skate at 3 am instead of 10 am. Then we're back to the hotel for a pre-game nap at 6 am. Wake up, have a little pre-game pasta at 8 am and then we're hopping in the car to rip off for the game. It might be at noon, but our body is running on the Gameday Time Zone. This is how you maximize peak performance, even if it means never seeing anyone socially except for the people on your team that are also facing this same stupid schedule. It's not the ideal solution, but it's one you have to make when you're chasing greatness in a simulated hockey league.
