After all of the good-natured trash talk and four years of waiting, Lee Orr returned to Vancouver Roller Hockey today after a harrowing truck ride into Vancouver the previous night. It took 35 minutes of intensive stretching just to get him into the vehicle this morning to get to Ambleside. From the VRH ranks, Andrew Smart made his return after nearly two months away, looking to unleash another massive volley of goalie-spooking slapshots. Both would return to face two hot goalies in Bron and Dom, and the somewhat-unexpected appearance of the ever-dominant Pat Elischer. Darrel and Ondrej would also see the Ambleside rink for the second time on a pleasant 14-degree afternoon perfect for hockey.
It would be safe to say Lee was happy to see the sticks-in-the-middle would make him linemates with Pat and Oliver as they teamed with Bernie backed Dom against Bron, Tony, Darrel, Andrew, Ondrej and Eric. Pat, Bernie, Lee and Oliver dominated on the asphalt, and Dom was nearly flawless in net as they destroyed Game 1 5-1, Pat pointing out and bron letting in five of eleven shots. Game 2 was closer as Smart and Eric teamed up to challenge Dom, but the elder Voser kept the door closed when it mattered as his crew won 5-4. Dom was .909 aftwer the first series and Pat had nine points.
Switching up the teams produced a rather lopsided second series won by Bron, Eric, Darrel, Pat, Bernie and Oliver. Surprisingly, Pat only had four points in the two games as Eric and Oliver carried the workload. At the other end, Lee was stopped 12 times by Bron in Game 3, and the same fate befell Tony in Game 4 as Bron stopped him nine times. It was this series where Bron got back in the game, and set on a course of stellar netminding that would ultimately prove to be historic. This series lasted twice as long as the first.
After a slow start with three points in four games, Tony revved it up big time in the third series. Teamed with Eric and accompanied by Lee’s rediscovered sniping touch, they joined Ondrej, Oliver and Bron to win a hardfought series 5-1, 3-5, 5-2. Bron was now on fire and held Pat at bay as he clipped along at 20 saves-per-game; Andrew did the bulk of the scoring. Pat had to leave after this series; at this point, he had 20 points, Lee 17 and Eric 15.
Once Pat left, it was a search for balance which saw everything from sticks-in-the-middle to trading to ‘you-pick-I-pick’ to select teams; every arrangement seeming to leave Dom at a disadvantage. All of the games were whitewashes and went quickly, allowing the crew to get the session game count up to eleven with four games in 55 minutes. Andrew turned it on here; his hard shots getting through. As well, Oliver, who only had one goal to this point, notched six in the last four games. The combo of Andrew, Lee and Oliver was particularly effective; Lee recovering after scoring just one point in Game 8 and 9. Tony and Eric were again an excellent pairing, often controlling play, but just could not get past Bron.
Even after eleven games, some of the gang could have probably played another three or four. This was the most equitable VRH session in a while as scoring was quite evenly distributed through the session among all players. The volume of shots was extraordinary by VRH standards; the most ever seen in a VRH session. A fantastic day for hockey (and DQ Moolattes) overall.

Starting in Game 3, Bron ran away from the rest of the crew and entered some other universe. It would be impossible to list all of his amazing saves on this page. He finished at a stellar .870 with two shutouts, and his 188 saves are easily a VRH record. Dom had a tough middle stretch today bookended by two fantastic series and plenty of great saves of his own. His .774 was a bit below normal but his 147 saves are far-and-away a new career high. On the scoresheet, Pat leaving for the last hour meant that he would finish at 11G-9A on 46 shots in seven games; tying for third star. It would be Lee who took the ball and ran with it, scoring a huge 17G and adding 9A to take the day. Eric and Andrew were fantastic and consistent all day. Eric finished second star at 12G-9A-55 shots, while Andrew finished tied for third at 8G-12A on a huge 74 shots. Joining Andrew and Pat at 20 points was the ever-dangerous Oliver at 7G-13A. Do not be fooled by Tony’s 11 points; he was one of the best players all day and just got the shaft when it came to facing hot goalies at the wrong time.
