    risk vs reward.  NHL risks inclement weather.  I think we can too.

    At the very least, I want to avoid a one game grand final.  That is not the way to settle the season I don’t think.

    Hopefully if another north island city gets a team (eg Welly), then I think a semi-final would be in order.

    still 0 to 0.  The immovable object getting run into by the unstoppable force.  That’s the kind of game it is.

    it is outdoors.  That’s the whole point!

    I think crowds are not a concern.  They will come.

    Plus its just an idea that we are floating around.  Not intended for this year!

    clearly ice is not booked in advance of knowing what teams are going.

    format is given for a south island only final.  in which case, transport is simply a matter of renting a bus.  No flight required.

    Accomodation is also not booked in advance because once again, you don’t know who will host the final until the final round potentially.

    It’s a contingency option in case its a all southern final.

    I think the reason Azzy and I chose Tekapo was for the outdoor classic look.  Nice back drop and the rink is obviously of high quality for an outdoor rink.  Lots of seating too! 

    And for a Queestown/Canterbury match, its in the middle location wise.

    Those who want to be a hero are usually the ones who end up looking silly.  I like the goalies who just quietly do their thing in net.  We’ve got enough young guys on the team who can be a hero if they want.

    and 3rd game might be useless and would be scratched.  Hence the top team choosing the order of games.

    I think its comparing it to the current format.

    Tekapo was thrown in as a winter classic type match.  For the hardcore hockey fans who don’t mind driving from chch or qtown.  Only really works with an all southern final though.

    I’ll answer that.  Justin is an unknown to the nzihl and I haven’t been at the top of the table before.  Despite us having some pretty decent save percentages, we haven’t been getting hammered for shots like Rick or Mike.  Also, people just might think we stink too.

    spectators are advised that they should wear a protective helmet whilst participating in the helmet toss festivities.

    It made a great noise maker for the Dunlops though.  He used it to cheer during the rest of the game.

    Yeah sorry, I really only put down descriptions of goalies who are playing regular minutes.  I can analyse you publicly if you like!  I omitted Thomas and others because I have yet to see him and I didn’t say anything about Justin because that is counter-productive to team goals to tell everyone his weaknesses or lack of <img decoding=” title=”Wink” />
