Well, we�ve had better write-ups, but at least we have one from Stefan as three new players join the VRH ranks in this eleven-player session:

So I will just post the game scores here... We had three new players today by the way, all of which have decent skill. Derrick Feiertag (boyfriend of Andrew's roommate -- I think), Dan Wood (boyfriend of Tony's girlfriends little sister) and Ken Guthrie (younger brother of Tony's girlfriend). Anyway we had too many players that we made 3 teams and just did round robin after the first game. Next week we may try and find a new rink to play at. BTW remind me not to go out drinking the night before playing hockey...

Well, it was a weird session, certainly; a big drop-off in scoring compared to the other games this year. Lorne runs away with first star honours with 10G, 5A. Derrick nabs second star in his first session, playing just three games and grabbing nine points. Jason, also only in three games, grabs eight points. Joern was off in net today, putting up the year�s first sub-.700 performance at .688; Bron was exactly .110 better at .798.

Useless Stats: Stefan barely hangs onto the season scoring lead over Jason, 73-72. Lorne�s first-star performance puts him back into third ahead of Bernie. The three-way assist race between Jason, Stefan and Bernie continues. Lorne passes Jason for second in shots and Stefan for second in shooting percentage. Joern drops to fourth in save percentage. Bron takes the lead in games goaltended and saves. The round-robin nature of the day means that only Lorne and Stefan have now played in every possible game this season. Lorne moves into second in PPG and Jason moves into second in GPG. Lorne�s ten goals ties for the fourth-highest so far this year. In this goaltending-impaired early part of the season, Bron�s .798 session ranks third. Jason and Stefan are tied for the lead in three-star points with 40 each. On the all-time front, Jason enters the top 25 in scoring, pushing out Jared Currie. Stefan is four goals behind Bernie for sixth all-time. Stefan needs 32 shots to tie Justin for fourth all-time. Bron falls to fourth in save percentage behind Carlos. Joern needs five games to tie Justin for fifth in games played. Lorne records his fourth-straight ten-goal session and 15-point session. All of Stefan�s scoring streaks, most notably his six straight 15-pointers, end here, as does Jason�s streak of 15-pointers at 3. Bernie goes up to 12 consecutive sessions played, while Joern is at nine, Lorne at eight and Stefan five. On the SDF, Jason holds fort on top for a third consecutive session as Seamus and Oliver plummet. Lorne and Stefan are in a battle for second while Derrick debuts in the top ten. On the GDF, Laird stays in first for the second straight session and Joern moves up one spot to fifth. Burton hockey has now had 80 different players! Don�t forget those Records and Honours, and let�s hope for more hockey and sunny weather for VRH next weekend.
