Recap: 9/29/2007 Cougars vs Canucks

With great expectations for the new season, we took to the ice ready to knock the socks off some kids from Caledonia. Unfortunately there was a referee mix-up, and the Canucks had to forfeit the game. We did end up playing a semi-organized game against them anyways, but promptly laid a big stinker on the ice and lost by some score I don’t quite remember. We started out quite strong, but never really got too many shots anywhere close to their net. We let in a few and kept playing and still never really got going. Someone – I think it was Wade – did score a nice goal, but besides that we didn’t really do much of anything noteworthy.
Things don’t bode so well for next week’s game either. We’re missing most of our defense and our top "deke-between-the-legs" artist, and we’re playing against the Oilers who should be a challenge. Let’s step it up and play some good ole-fashioned Nucks hockey!

The upcoming game against the Oilers has been cancelled. Stay tuned, and I'll let you know the new time and place...
