Watched a bit of sled hockey as I stretched before our game, it's an advantage of playing in the early time slot.
When our game started, it was a bit more lopsided than the sled hockey seemed to be, and not in our favor. That stayed pretty consistent throughout the game. In the end, they had a bit more than twice as many shots as we had and I felt that was probably a fair reflection of the overall play of the two teams.
But I played well in the net, and it was scoreless after the first period. Then, we managed to score the first goal about halfway through the second period. After that, they tried even more to score, and I had to make a number of good saves but was able to do so until a shot hit our defender in his hand. While he was in pain, they picked up the puck and managed to score with no pressure at all from just a few feet in front of me. That was a frustrating and annoying way for it to get tied up.
In the third, they kept coming offensively, while we only occasionally had a scoring chance, usually on a breakaway. I stopped everything though, for the first half of the period or so, until they had a lengthy period holding the puck in our zone and finally getting plenty of time for one of their defenders to line up a shot uncontested. I knew where he was shooting into the corner on my left and tried to get my glove up quick enough but wasn't able to.
We tried to score another to tie the game up, including with me on the bench as time was running out. Instead, they managed to get a long shot on the net and score a third goal. That was basically the end of the game, for a 1-3 loss.
After the game, the other goalie came and gave me some advice, even though I had clearly been the better goalie in the game. That's not the first time she's done that, and usually, the advice isn't wrong, but it is always something really simple I've already known for years. It kind of cracks me up actually, I just say thank you and move on.
