Day 2 of the Aero tournament was some what disappointing but there were some very positive things. We played even with Mississauga where a week ago we were unable to. We skated well against Durham for 2 periods until fading in the 3rd. Conditioning is still an issue with some players. Though Durham did have an advantage having not played earlier in the morning. We took 15 penalties in the 3 games with only 2 in the first period and 8 in the third. Again, conditioning was a factor. Our goalies were great. And our first year Midgets played fantastic hockey and will only get better in the next few months. We know our older players will come around. This team has a great work ethic and will get stronger in the weeks to come. An early tournament is a great way to measure how much work you need to do.
Well off for my high carb dinner before the run tomorrow. Pray for no rain!
