Ghostender Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Great game - too bad about losing the shutout, but if it's any consolation, even if you had made the original save, there was another forward right there ready to pounce on any kind of rebound, so that was a pretty high percentage play in terms of likelihood of a goal. BTW - Fullright called - he wants his glove hand back... P.S. - glad to see you joined into this forum as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imperative Posted March 1, 2017 Author Share Posted March 1, 2017 https://youtu.be/QxkNjCte8b0 thanks for the comments! No one can touch Fullrights glove hand! This game, I was subbing in another league on a team I have never played with before, it went ok. I gave up 5 but I didn't feel like any were soft, so I felt ok about my game and we got the win.

Ghostender Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 "... I didn't feel like any were soft.." Understatement of the day! Can't think of too many goalies if any that could have stopped any of the ones they got on you. Your tracking ability and ability to reverse direction are second to none! The save at 1:20 was a beaut. You battled the whole way and made them work for their goals. IMO there's no doubt that wouldn't have been a win without your tending. Always great to watch your videos. Tech question: is there a way to quote either without including the video (or pic) or at least cut the media out? Would probably help keep the site's bandwidth down somewhat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullright Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Unbelievable sequence ending at 1:22. You played great! Agree with Ghost: understatement big time. Well done, Cam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were solid again, that team had a tendacy to allow players to either walk in alone or have no defense pressure when they sat in front of the net with all the time in the world.

Imperative Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 Thanks for comments guys! I haven't been posting my shinny times on here because you can only watch so many breakaways and off man rushes, haha. this is the final game of our season, we have a tourney at the end of March to wrap the season up. we pulled out a 8-4 win in this one and i felt like I played decent overall. I was pretty solid in the 1st half and was only beat on a power move where the guy was able to wrap around and walk right out front, 2nd I didn't see the release of the shot, third was a penalty shot and 4th i didn't seal the ice and didn't lunge back before the puck was tapped in.

I seriously hope that ref didn't have to break up any fights... Great opening blocker save... don't you love it when a breakaway is your first shot... Usually when I knock the net off like that I am just sprawling all over and not making an awesome catch at the same time! 1st goal one is a tough one, you can only cover so much on people with reach, D needs to do something there. 2nd goal... holy what a shot. They had 2 penalty shots... wow, is it no penalties and instead penalty shots? 1st one to me made sense but the second one was just a trip. Player looked to have decent hands and made a good play. 4th goal, never blame yourself for a rebound off of a breakaway... where is the D? Like usual you were solid, thank you for sharing!

No fights to break up which is good because the ref was maybe 12, haha. Yeah that first giveaway right off of opening face off I was thinking "here we go". If that had went it it may have changed the flow of the game. We scored 3 goals in the first right after I made a save in our end and giving up that one early may have deflated the team(not the most mentally tough team, haha). Me tripping on my own edge was pretty comical, the boys had a good chuckle over that one. For Some reason they decided to have penalty shots instead of penalties and I agree I didn't think 17 deserved that 2nd penalty shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperative Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 https://youtu.be/DPxNd9Sbp9Y Well season ending tourney is underway, it is set up weird, we played last night, play Wednesday night and Saturday morning games as the round robin and depending on where we finish we play another final game later in the day on Saturday. This was probably one of the slowest games of the season for me, their goalie kept it close for most of the game even though we probably tripled them in shots, but it was nice to get the win. I didn't play great, wasn't too happy with the first goal through the five hole, 2nd and 3rd goal I was sniped top glove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullright Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 A very good and controlled game, Imperative. Good rebound control, depth, and reading the play. The goals to the glove were pretty great shots. No worries. Good luck the rest of the tournament! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Game two of the round robin is against the team that beat the Vikings in the "A" final last year. So we will see how it goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperative Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share Posted March 30, 2017 well my GoPro wouldn't fire up at the start of the game so I missed the 1st and 2nd period. I got it goin before the third but the locker room had the infloor heat pumping and as soon as I mounted the GoPro on the glass it fogged right up, I realize the video is a little difficult to watch, haha. Anyways came out with another convincing win 11-4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imperative Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 gake three of the round robin, it was a blow out we won 20-2. I picked up two assists in the game. First goal against was redirected a couple times and I thought it was going wide, 2nd I got sniped top shelf short side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillyGrips13 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 20! How? They looked like a decent offensive team. How in the world did they allow 20 goals in one game?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How in the world did they allow 20 goals in one game?! They only had 8 skaters, so they ran out of gas pretty quickly, their d was super weak and their goalie wasn't super quick on his feet which resulted in a lot of rebound goals.

Imperative Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 Big "A" final win! So my team had 6 guys missing for the "A" final that had played in the round robin and for the most part 6 of our best centers and defensemen. I am not going to lie I was worried about our ability to compete with all the guys missing and the couple of guys subbing were not nearly as good as our regular teammates. I felt like I played pretty well throughout the game, the first goal the shooter put it off the post, my back and in. 2nd goal my own guy tapped it to the shooter and he went too shelf. The third was totally my fault the puck went between my right foot and my stick and I was trying to get my left foot out of the way of the puck and ended up kicking it right in. That tied the game at 3-3 (about 6 minutes left) and my team was gassed (we had 10 guys and they were rolling 3 full lines). I thought that goal may have been the back breaker so I was thinking I had to slam the door shut and hold on to get to a shootout but my team responded quickly scoring 2 quick goals and we held on for the final 3 minutes to preserve the win!

You are right everything feels off when it is my first time back on the ice. My angles feel off, depth off, thinking way too much instead of just reading and reacting which leaves me mentally behind play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostender Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Well, it looked like a dangle-fest to me. Wouldn't worry about it - it's just a dress rehearsal. Makes me think though (and wondering more seriously than I may sound): Goalies go to drop-in to work on their game and try to stop as many as they can. Forwards go to drop-in to work on their game and to score as many as they can. Do D not go to shinny, or just not care about working on their game????
