We took a five-minute water break to try and regather our thoughts and to try and come back from this awful game against a group of social rejects.

Jason passed it over to Scott who I had no problem body checking him flying into some old ladies car. Scott left a huge dent in the back of it. I then proceeded to do a spin-o-rama that got me around their last defender and their goalie and I buried it into the open
