The love you two have for each other…
It’s kinda the opposite of pure.
Like dirty and possibly illegal in some places in the world.

Hence entering you can hang on the blue line, and be fine.
But exiting you have to get a foot back into the neutral zone before you can reenter
[/quote:24itfvjt]No that’s not right, the story with the puck crossing the blue line is not the same as skates.
With the puck, it’s not until the puck goes completely over the blue line that it enters that zone. Skates are different.
If it’s a delayed offside, then as soon as a skate touches the line, you’re onside.
If you’re going into the zone, it’s as soon as both of your skates are no longer touching the blue line that you’re in the zone.
For skates, the blue line is neutral zone, no matter what side you’re coming from, the entire blue line is neutral. So to go to the neutral zone, you just have to ‘skate the line’ – hence the phrase.

” title=”Sad” /> I always thought you weren’t off-side as long as you have at least a foot on the blue line – oh well, lesson learned.
[/quote:hu3zenf2]Who told you that?
The rule is 450b:
b) The determining factors in deciding an offside are:
1. The players’ skates position – player is offside when both skates are completely
over the blue line in his attacking zone before the puck completely crosses
the line,
2. The puck position – the puck shall have completely crossed the blue line into
the attacking zone.If you have a skate touching the blue line, you’re onside.
Though I thought you were well offside, if yours was the shot when Stefan was standing in front of the net and the whistle went off before the puck went in. By about a foot.

[/quote:3tkqxnd1]The final team is above. No Paris, and it was a different Paris anyway. No Jacques, so we played without goalie, which wasn’t the best for what the game was for.
Scores 6-0 at the end of the first, 7-2 at the end of the second (yeah, I suck at goal), and 12-3 at the end of the 3rd. Some good work by the bullfrogs who took the foot off in the second, but came back in the third.
Both teams caught a few penalties. Stefan stole the penalty that I think Ryan was targeting. Zanzee and Graham copped them too, as did Chris from the Beasts… and someone else?
All good fun.
OK, Got enough players now (assuming everyone turns up)

Jacques Kemp (G)That’s 11 + goalie, I’ll see if we can get Bode to play as well as she’ll have just finished coaching then.
See y’all tomorrow night, 7pm.
Still looking for a couple more players – prem level really. And y’know, goalie. Hopefully have a team list out tomorrow morning.
Mark, have you asked for scorers and referees?

[/quote:5jxf39vf]I think that was for the Sunday night social, he wants to play out for a proper game.
People should keep adding their names. Like I said, we’re aiming for an A grade level team, so I’ll go through a similar process with how we make the teams – try and end up with the right balance (we use this numbering system in the DIHL which I won’t go into the details of, but everyone gets a number and then the numbers are averaged out).
However at this stage we really need a goalie. Nick can’t come, Toby might be a little imposing. I’m waiting to hear from Aaron.
If anyone wants to try Tony Pasco or Devin – I don’t have contact details here, feel free to do so – first in first gets to play.
That’s no good – sorry I thought Mark had booked the ice for Sunday already.
Converting whoever turns up for Sunday social game into a team won’t work, so if we take that time then a bunch of people who play the Sunday normally are going to miss out.
Who has the time? We shouldn’t go taking it off the people who turn up on Sundays by being bossy.

If you go see a chemist, they’ll give you a cream for that.
He doesn’t seem to be listed in the report:
http://www.nzicehockey.co.nz/NatLeague/index.htmSimon apparently got a goal though.
A Dunedin ice hockey player was skating on natural ice over the weekend and went to retrieve a puck and fell through thin ice into the water, which was fairly deep. Luckily his teammates were on hand to help get him out, using their hockey sticks.
Which isn’t to say that people shouldn’t go looking for natural ice and skating on it, but be sensible, stay well away from any edges which boundary unfrozen water, check out the ice carefully before you skate on it, and watch out for your team mates. If possible, stick to parts of the pond which won’t be over your head.
That stuff you see in movies about cracks appearing and people having plenty of time to get away – that’s not how it happens in real life. You end up in the water, real fast, and when you try and pull yourself up out of it, the ice keeps breaking.
