Playoff Game 4

February 6th, 2015              

    Not a lot went as planned tonight in regards to how the ideal situation would have played out. Drew's hockey team was playing in their fourth playoff game of the season tonight, pretty much wrapping up their season. After two strong games in a row, they would be facing a tough challenge tonight. Although the Orchard Lake team that they were facing had only won a couple of games all season long, they were also in a higher division facing off against tougher competition throughout the season. Early on it looked like the Storm team would be able to hang with them, as they even managed to jump out to an early 1-0 lead. It was all Orchard Lake after that though, as they went on to score two goals in the first to head into the second with a 2-1 lead. Their scoring binge continued in the second, and once the game reached 5-1 I had a decision to make - either Samantha would be late to her game while I sit and watch Drew's team struggle, or I run her to her soccer game so she arrives on time and I miss some of Drew's game. None of this would have mattered had Drew's game started on time, but it got underway later than planned. I opted to drop Sam off at her game and return to pick up Drew, hoping to catch the end of the game. Unfortunately it was over by the time I returned, but it didn't sound as though I missed much. The final score was an 8-2 Storm defeat, with plenty of poor refereeing thrown into the mix. Not the way anyone wanted to end the season, but the team has one final tournament remaining to finally secure their first win of the season...
