Another bag skate. Fuck. Red line, blue line, red line, blue line... We all had higher expectations for the season but things got away from the Timber this year. Eighth overall is good enough for a playoff berth but a division title wasn't exactly a lofty goal for Maine. The team can't help but feel the sharp tinge of disappointment as the season winds down and they set their sights on the post season - what is in the past will remain there. 

After the bag skate coach gathered everyone around and said it was time for some fun. Out came the beach balls for some soccer-hockey, it was a blast...

Until Iceland's national team decided to break up our practice. Their coach, "The Dentist Stansson" even challenged ours to a game of one-on-one that ended when he slashed our coach's knee with the heel of his stick. 

I don't know if Gordon Bom... I mean, coach, will ever make the big leagues now.
