Holy crap. In seven days I will be boarding a plane to the Czech Republic to represent Canada. I can't believe how quickly time has flown and how insanely pumped I am!!! SO MUCH TO DO before we leave!
Anyway, last night was our semi-final game against Markham City Rangers. Unfortunately, the core of their team decided not to show up and they only had four players. Some players from the preceding rec crossover game decided to stay and utilize the free gym time (I would have totally done the same thing), so we actually got in a decent scrimmage. I must say we haven't been playing well at all together, and this week wasn't that different. We had a noticeable increase in passing, but it's hard to tell whether we were improving in that aspect, or if the other substitute players were just less skilled at covering the space. Scoring was tight - also disappointing, but we ended up with a win. I potted one, from a defensive flub, got a nice one-on-one with the goalie. Too bad it didn't even matter.
Went to the new Reds Tavern for post-game beers with the usual suspects and we were pleasantly surprised by their draught selection. As crappy as it's been for us game-wise, it is always enjoyable to hang out with my teammates who are dear friends.
Finals are next week again the Lions. It will be tough, and I hope we can relieve some of the growing apathy for at least an hour.
Then one sleep until floorball glory...
