Cool Re: FVSL Div. 2 results and banter: March '05

Bulljive, what you say makes sense. However, we learned the hard way last year that it's smart to sign as many players as possible during the season. Last year we had 3 regular starters able to go due to our goalie getting married that weekend, plus a couple of guys away for a stag. We actually had to take 3 players from Surrey Storm, the 1 team that didn't win a game in Div 3 last year, so that we could field a team. We played with 12 guys total and a rotation in net. This year we've got all our guys signed, even if they are away for school for the winter so that even if a few guys can't make it, we'll be able to field a competitive team. Actually, I'm not sure where Whack gets 4 guys signed from though, as we have 2 guys signed who are going to school in the States. One is actually back for Spring Break and may play in our next 2 games before heading back (although he may want to party while back, rather than play a 7:30 game this Sat night)...

Also the rule in which you are allowed to bring any 3 players that aren't on your team is a bit broad. they should itleast have to be apart of your club. not that it really matters b provincials are all about having a good time, drinking some beer and enjoying the road trip with your team.
