email feature test

just a test to see if this works

kevin invited to the blog

As of 11.50 AM today, Kevin has been invited. Now, whether he accepts the invite and / or drags his butt out of bed on Wednesday mornings is another question... ;-)

emailing the peeps

I'm trying to get the blog to email all of us when there's a new post, but blogger seems to be restricting the number of characters I can enter in the sent to field in the administration app. What I might do is have the notifications set up to be sent to me, then create an automatic redirect rule that would send it to the rest of you freaks. Stay tuned. I suppose you'll know if you start getting blog spam in your inbox.

blog = weblog

Get with it would ya Landry? Good to know that you doodes lit it up last week to the tune of 14 goals without me. Perhaps I should stay away more often!

Outlet pass

I know am one of those that collapses too low when I shouldn't.

One of the advantages of being on the coaching staff for 10 year olds (I'm the trainer), is that you get to see the basics taught - and the breakout is one of those things we're covering with the kids. My son's coach is an ex-67s - so he is likely to know his stuff.

I want to keep it simple and based on this, the position I will endeavour to get to when we get control behind the net is somewhere around the boards, between the hash marks on the face-off circle and the blue line, with my butt towards the boards so that I can see if the centre is breaking. That way if that is avenue open, we can breakout with speed, otherwise, I'll look at my options along the boards - either breaking out myself with my masterful puck handling skills ;-) or sending the puck up the outside along the boards.
