Playoff Schedule and Scenarios

Next Game: Schlitz (3);(1-0) vs Tigers (1)(1-0)
Monday April 21st
Canton 9:10pm

The Golden Schlitz will try to do something we haven't done in a season and a half... beat the Tigers. Get your availability in to Kilroy right now as there will certainly be some small amount of shuffling going on.

Scenario 1: A loss here by the Beercans means an elimination game Schlidaveur on Thursday night, with the winner getting another crack at the Tigers.
Scenario 2: A victory here sends the Tigers to meet the Zombies on Thursday night with the possiblity (if the Cadavers can win) of a Championship Game Schlidaveur (CGS) (cue the chorus... and the lights... ok that's good) the next Monday night 4/28.
One of the teams will play that night, hopefully both.

Next Game: Cadavers (2) (1-1) vs. (1-1) Loser of Monday's Game.
Thursday April 24th
Brockton 10:10 pm

The Cadavers have advanced in the losers bracket courtesy of last night's win over the Freeze and will face whomever loses on Monday. If its the Tigers a win forces the CGS the next Monday. If its the Schlitz than its an elimination game with the winner getting the Tigers again.

Next Game: Championship Game
Monday April 28th
Canton 9;10 pm

This game could actually be the first of two depending on if whichever team comes in 2-1 wins against the 2-0 team. The date of that possible game has not been decided. Someone (hopefully both teams) is going to play on this night. We can only hope for the coveted and sacred CGS...

One last thing. Say the Schlitz beat the Tigers Monday. Then say the Cads beat the Tigers Thursday, and then in the CGS, the Cads win Monday, making both teams 2-1.

That would force a third and Penultimate CGS!!!! We would meet 3 total times to decide the division. That would be the ultimate, but there are about 1 million coningencies on it working out like that so the Blogger is going to try not to work himself into a lather thinking about it....

Remember. Get in touch with Kilroy about your availabilty for ALL POSSIBLE REMAINING GAMES. Go ahead... do it now. Go on...

The blogger regrets that he will be out of town all of next week but he eagerly awaits email information about how both games go. Photographic evidence earns extra credit...

'Til next time..

Go Zombies.

Go Suds.

Welcome to the Hockey Blog!

Team, friends, opponents, and random wanderers of the digital landscape... Welcome.

In these humble pages do I offer the game stories, mundane facts, stats, and proud tales of our Beer League Hockey teams the Cadavers and the Schlitz.

Can you say something is just a hobby if you do it once (or twice) a week for as long as you can remember? I don't know, but I love to play hockey. We've been playing with one incarnation of this team or another for ten years plus now. We play even if the games are late at night, or on a weeknight (they are usually both), and the kids haven't been sleeping great, and you have to be to work early tomorrow morning. We still go play. Its just what we do to play our game.

Our hobby... or what we do every week, sometimes(mostly) late at night in far away places. Then we like to have a cold beverage and talk about it in the parking lot afterward. Because that's a big part of it to... as you will see.

I got to thinking a while back that we should keep stats. You know, some way to give a story line to the season. So many of them had flown by, it was hard to remember all the things that had happened to the team or teams over the years.

Keeping track of the stats and email conversation threads that went on and on told our story in a new way. Which was cool.
Then I discovered blogger.

The Blog is a perfect forum, in my opinion, to tell our story, and the perfect companion "hobby" to my weekly sport hobby. Each week we get a game story and maybe some fun stories about the game. It works great now with the two teams because everyone wants to know how the other squad did.

So this is the story of our teams and our friends. I hope you find pleasure in the telling of our tales. A good game, a hard skate and usually a cold beer afterward. There are few greater things one can do with their time. At least that's what we think.

Please feel free to comment, whomever you are. The more the merrier I say as long as you are polite... or very funny. Visitors, friends, and opponents thoughts are always welcome. I invite you to share what you have to say. Everyone.

Thanks for reading.
Enjoy.
