TH Yellow vs. The Parents!!!  THY 15 Parents 2

Well this face off was inevitable.  All those early morning practices, games and the trash talk in the dressing rooms all came to a head this day as the grudge match of all grudge matches was being played out on the ice.  A year of secret practices after their children have went to bed, and a couple of exhibition game victories against the Leafs (on the computer), the parents thought they were good enough to face the mighty Tim Horton Yellow Tyke team.  Unfortunately for us, we thought wrong!  The ladies were the first to hit the ice facing the girls of the Tim Horton Yellow team.  It appeared that youth had the upper hand, even though it seemed that all the ladies appeared to have neglected to fill out their age on our roster sheet so at the time of the game we are unsure how old they were.  Paige Clark and Courtney Fritz lead the attack with Eryn Vaughan, Jena Fotheringham and Stephanie Young following close behind.  With this crew out on the ice they were off to a quick lead that the Parents were never able to come back from.  After this first shift we noticed coach Donnelly quickly jumped ship and joined up with the Tykes.  Next it was the men’s turn against the boys, and they didn’t fare any better either.  The boys schooled the old men on how the game should be played.  Leading this charge was Keegan Quish, Clayton Troy and Matt Donnelly, with Ben Fleischauer, Jayce Busby and Nat Illerbrunn following closely behind.  The parents never had a chance, wave after wave of Yellow came down the ice and ran up the score on us.  I guess it’s back to the secret practices for us and this time we’ll bring our skates.
