Steamers Hockey

Too bad for the team, I’m back from vacation, and in net again. And back to losing. Sounds like the guys played better while I was gone. At least they may offer to ship me back to Australia, and I probably wouldn’t turn it down. Stats are updated.

Per usual this season, last night we played only as well as the other team and managed another tie. That brings us to 3-5-5. Pretty ridiculous. But at least it was a comeback tie. And the other goalie actually showed up this week. But forgot his pads. Really?

In other news, our boy is all grown up. Chad brought beer for the first time in like three years. And actually drank one with us. It’s about time.

I put in some code to give stats on game winning goals, so go check out the stats page for more mindless time wasting. In celebration of this, I give you Ashley and her stick…

Our last few game have been tight ones, and we seem to be fans of tying teams this year.

So in keeping with all things “tight and close”, and to encourage us to finish it off in the third period, I give you this Teemu Selanne fan. I hear she will be hanging out at the next game. I wish I could take credit for being the photographer, but I can’t, so give shooterman1 the photographer of the week award.

In other news, more schedule has been posted, and the league is still screwing us unfairly with Sunday games, and lying about it. I don’t see anybody else who has half their games on Sunday. Jim – you are a lying douche.

Just to get you ready for the upcoming Steamers winter season, I found some more pictures of hot ladies in hockey jerseys. Kentucky really does know what they’re doing. In other news, the first part of the schedule has been posted on the schedule page.

According to our esteemed Captain, with our 4-2 win over the Turtles on Monday, we sewed up the tie breaker and made the playoffs. Guys named Steve never botch the math, so I am assuming this is a lock.

Monday night is the final game of the summer regular season. It’s early (8:20) and there will be grilled meats in the parking lot after, so come on out and wear your pink hats for big happy fan fun time.

In celebration of making our last regular season game meaningless, I give you Hailey, who brings meaning to the world by wearing a Hartford Whalers jersey. Best. Jersey. Ever.

The Steamers pulled off a 6-2 win against the Bay State Beavers. In honor of beating up on Beavers, I give you Stacey. Stacey (pictured here) is happy the Steamers finally won a game in front of their old fat goalie. It’s about time.

When hockey players lose two straight playoff games and are ousted into an early offseason break, they go play golf. And so, to ease the pain, I give you Natalie Gulbis.

See you in six weeks.

… and Lindsay Lohan will be there. I guess she is excited about seeing our rematch against the first place Badenovs. It should be quite an adventure. Russ is a healthy scratch (or unhealthy depending on how much Mexican water he’s consumed by now), but everybody else should be there.

In less exciting news, there are a bunch of new stats posted on the site, so take a look around and see if you can figure out who’s getting cut next season (cough… goalie… cough…)
