"Having recovered from meniscus tear (knee) surgery, I'm excited about some street hockey.  Should be there tomorrow, possibly with +1."

"I'll be there, believe my buddy Dave will be as well."

"I'll be able to make it!"

"This is shaping up to be a king of the hill type day."

"Sick as dog. In for sure."

"I'm in, my long lost amigos. See you around 1 pm."

"In as long as my wife is not in labor between now and 1pm!!!"

"in, for real, this time."

"In if wrist, work, and wife allow. Wait a minute-- I don't need permission from my body, boss or better half! See you there."

"Jessi:All races/genders/skill levels welcome as long as you love hockey.  Bring a good attitude, willingness and ability to learn on the fly, and a stick and you're good to go."

"in, if work allows.  And Jessi, yes, we do have girls play sometimes.  Usually 1-2 on any given week, but they're always welcome.   As for sticks, Big 5 in Ballard certainly is close, but they're selection can be limited.…"

"I'm in at goal. I think Rob has the extra gear.  Rob if you aren't coming, let me know where I can pick up the stuff.  I'm going to go get a new goalie stick tomorrow. That plastic blade isn't cutting it."

"This sounds like perfect timing to start with some other new players! I just moved to Seattle this week from Kentucky. A friend and I were going to come out and play. We'll go look for hockey sticks tomorrow. Do many other ladies play? "

"In. Stand the stick up straight in front of you, with the blade on the ground.  If the butt is at or close to your chin, its a good length for you.  This is how I do it, anyways."

"Good idea. Is there a standard method to determine the right stick length?"

"Awesome, and welcome.   Cory loves new recruits.  You also each might want to pick up cheap $15 sticks at the Big 5 Sporting Goods in Ballard to make sure you get something close to the right height.  It's less than half a mile…"
