I had a blast the other night playing hockey. The lead up wasn't as much fun as a pulled muscle near my hip seriously limited my movement earlier in the day. However, ibuprofen followed by Voltaren later in the day and then an Icy Hot type product before hockey did the trick.

The MVP's
I had a lot more fun in the first game than I did in the second. I like to be busy!
The following is completely my opinion and does NOT reflect anyone else's. For next year's tournament, I would go completely local for the WIHO team. No overseas players. That way we could work together as a team beforehand and really know our teammates and how they play. I would also get some younger players on the team. Estelle Ip and Katie Gwozdecky would be my first two selections. I would also include some players from the HKAHC (at least I think that's where they play---perhaps I'm wrong about this). The Women's League will definitely help improve our team for next year's MegaIce 5's.

Hey Kirsten, I was typing my name in google and I found this website! :p cool website and ^ nice picture btw :) im probably going to join WIHO in the 2011 Mega5's if im allowed.. cya on the rink soon!
