I-League Returns Tonight

Yes, I-League returns tonight from the rink reburbishing, even if we're a tad late in posting it here. Sorry. About that refurbishing, here's an early report: The ice is like friggin' glass. You can see shadows from surface cuts on the newly painted floor. Really beautiful.

The schedule is out through Aug. 12. There's practice tonight, then three games before another practice on Aug. 5.

Tonight's practice:

Phantoms and Wolverines, 7:15 p.m.
Komets and Blue Devils, 8:30 p.m.
Patriots and Brewzers, 9 p.m.
Stickmen and Ice Holes, 9:45 p.m.
Snipers and Stingers, 10:15 p.m.
Spiders and Redrum, 11 p.m.
Fugaweez and Puckers, 11:30 p.m.

Euless I-League Dominates Grapevine

Yikes. Maybe this is not such a good idea. But, hey, they asked for it. An ad hoc team of 16 Euless I-Leaguers dominated the Grapevine I-League in a 10-0 victory on Friday night. Thanks to the guys who played: Chris Duran, Kent Taub, Nate Hodges, Dallas Lehr, Bobby Sirkis, Robert Sirkis, Rahul Sharma, Andrew Patti, Bryan Conner, Chris Conner, Rich Duval, Brian Bradley, Kenny Fain, Jeff Eagle, Mike Drago and Dan Grimes. We had a great time and won another t-shirt ... even if it was a bit too easy.
