Hi everyone,

I moved to Vancouver, BC, a few weeks ago. I know I haven't been in SSH for as long as most folks here, but playing hockey with you all was a highlight of my time in Seattle and I feel compelled to say a few words.

Jake, it all started with you graciously inviting me to my first game. Ray, the stick you lent me was the second time I ever touched a hockey stick at all! And to everyone else, thank you for welcoming me into the community. I didn't make it widely known…

With most people being told to stay home, someone suggested weekday afternoon hockey.

Who’s in for that, and when shall we play?

The current idea is Thursday at 4 pm!

I see some new folks on the website. Let's welcome them with a proper SSH game - complete with Seattle's signature light drizzle!

Time will be the goalies' choice :) who's in?

Who's playing tomorrow?!

Also, someone left these shirts 2 weeks ago:

They've been the butt of everyone's jokes lately.

Also, hockey tomorrow? Looks like it'll clear up in time :)

Hockey tomorrow??? Earlier start time, ‘cause it might rain later in the day?

How many first-round matches did y'all pick correctly?

Also, LOOK AT THE BEAUTIFUL WEATHER TOMORROW

Where’s everyone?!

I've been looking forward to it for months, but my gf's parents are visiting from Asia on the Jun 1 weekend :(

This is 100% a selfish request, so I'm ready to make up for it appropriately: bringing beer for everyone, making a sizable donation to the SSH Bank, etc.

People are still reaching!

My personal favourite: "Whoever-the-goalie-is played awesome"

Also, game this Saturday - WHO'S IN? :D

It shouldn't take a lot to drag you here to play

There can never be a better way to spend the day

We'll bless the rains down in 19th Ave

Gonna need 2 goalies to come down and make some SAAAAAVES

OOooh...

Reference, if you don't get…

Last chance to impress the coach, and not get sent down!

On the FAQ, it says "Game is on EVERY Saturday, regardless of weather."

Will we walk the talk tomorrow? YES.

UPDATED WEATHER FORECAST:

We’ve compromised! Hopefully, the usual folks can join us at 1 pm.

GAME ON
