HockeyDope I (Montréal)

I am willing to organize an ice hockey game in the Montréal area, for all Dopers interested in participating.

This would entail a full equipment, non-contact game (1.5 hours ice time, so 3 periods of 20 minutes running time), 10 players plus a goalie per team, referee and score keeper. As I already run a hockey league, I have everything at my disposal to make this happen. Players interested in participating should have their own equipment.

The main goal of the game is to have fun, no idiots please.

I figure a Saturday night in November (depending on what works best for people), a pre-game dinner and pot game beers.

Who’s in?

Ooooooooops…I meant post game beers (but “pot” game beers works for Hockeydope, no?)

I’m in for the whole thing, the dinner, the game, the pot, and the beers!:smiley:

I know for a fact that I’ll get to wear the very stylish South Shore Ale Stars jersey, that’s worth it right there!

Goaltenders who sign up will be treated extreeee-special…it would be nice to not have to turn the nets around…

Who wants their name at the top of the Cecil Adams Cup?

Aw man, I would so love to do this with yous guys.

Except part of Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and most of Quebec are in the way. :frowning:

Tripler
I’ll have a SkateDope over here sometime.

Can I just sit in the stands and make catty comments with scott evil about the relative attractiveness of men in pads?

Ooh, fun fun fun! :smiley:

::Highsticks Tripler and skates off cackling::
How about rollerblade hockey sometime?

Damn, how I’d love to make that trip…I could wear my Sharks jersey that even has my own name on it. I don’t think funds will allow, though.

Too bad…one of my sets of jerseys are San Jose Sharks home shirts (circa 1998) proudly emblazoned with the South Shore Ale Stars Hockey League crest. Sweet…

C’mon, 25,000 members, we should be able to find 22 to play hockey!!!

Anyone who has any serious questions about playing/logistics can contact me by e-mail (see my profile).

I’m up for that too, you know it grrrl , but sheesh, nobody else on the boards plays ice hockey?
Sure you can’t come up Hardygrrrl? Think of it as the mother of road games. Plus, the refs in sköt’s leagues are usually blind as bats!

Bummer, Tripler:frowning: . I’ll bet you know how to play the trap too. :wink:

It doesn’t look like this one’s gonna happen, a disappointment to players and athletic supporters alike. Time to take this one out of it’s misery sköt.:frowning:

Did someone say hockey? I’d play if I didn’t live 1100km away.

Ice hockey? Sounds sweet, except I sold most of my equipment after quitting a couple years ago. That, and the three hour drive. And the fact I have no way to get there. But I’m a goalie!
