    Well fellas, I hope the holidays are filled with frankincense and myrrh. I wouldn’t know what myrrh was if you handed a bucket of it to me. Myrrh has to be the only word where two “r”s and an h are lined up consecutively. Anyways, let’s hope we all stay ...

    I would be doing everyone a disservice if I didn’t start this weeks writeup without thanking those who subbed in this past weekend so we could get the league games played. Some players, including yours truly, feared a Christmas quarantine and opted out lacing them up while others just flat ...

    Question to kick off this week’s blog: Our SCOHA anthem singer sings the first line of the song then holds the mic up in the air for the crowd to sing the rest then rejoins it for the last sentence. Should we just pay her per line sang? We are ...

    1 out of 4 players’ gear is starting to smell like cheese. 4 weeks into the season and the 19-month gear air-out is wearing off in a hurry. The cold winter is coming so that means our hockey bags will be out in the garage or just staying in the ...

    Those toffees in the orange wrapper taste like dirt warmed over. I would rather get a mini bran muffin or a lousy apple. Anyways, what a crazy week of SCOHA action last week. Fans are starting to come out in droves, the 50/50 draws are getting bigger and there’s now ...

    Week 2 has come and gone. Someone needs to remind our SCOHA anthem singer it’s not American Idol, keep the song moving… good grief. Went overboard like the pepperoni’s on an Attic pizza. At any rate, let’s recap the weekend that was.. JUNIOR DIVISION: talk about some fast hockey, folks! ...

    New this season is the SCOHA Lost and Found: Lungs and groins were scattered around the ice like a bag of spare screws from an Ikea bookcase. Call the rink to identify. Welcome back fellow Scoha-ians!!! Let’s unmask the first week of the season, but let me warn you, some ...

    First off, stick taps for Walter Gretzky, our country’s official hockey dad. He will be sadly missed throughout every hockey community.

    Well so much for that. I spent $199.00 for the SCOHA Centre Ice Package for my tv then Terry goes and announces the season is suspended. Had the popcorn and colas ready for opening night, too…. A big nothing burger to say the very least. Well the Draft Night 2020 ...

    Well the cement has hardened on the SCOHA 2019-20 season. I’m not going to “mask” the fact that we all saw it coming. So how are you feeling? Can’t imagine how many of us have been so nervous to have diarrhea since the Modern Indian Buffet opened their doors about ...

    The answer to the quiz last week "Name that Scohaian" is Glenn Rouse!!! Thanks for all those who messaged with their guess, it was fun... The weeks are getting longer and longer. This one has been agony. I am as tired as a pair of dentures after a cold buffet ...
