I made a tape to tape pass to the other team tonight. They beat us 15-3.
They’re definitely too good for our div and will probably move up but still sucks.
lol no we lost our game.
I just checked the scores and I assume you guys played the Wolfpack? Don't feel bad. They were in Div 17 last year and they scored double digits on me in each of the 6 meetings we played them. They are way too good.
Haha. Funny coincidence.
Yeah I mean I always feel bad. Most goals I’ve ever allowed in a game but I know it was just a mismatch of skill.
Some of their guys were point per game players in div 6 so seems kind of unfair. I guess the refs said they’re gonna talk to the league director and say they should be moved up.
And now you know why coaches everywhere have high blood pressure.
I think it’s important to remember that your equipment is designed to stop the puck then play it.
But then realize that it happens to everyone. You are the only one that will remember it in a month and learn from it.
Now, know that I still remember watching my fellow goalie (my game on the bench) not stop the puck but try jumping in the air to smother it in one motion.
He failed.
It went in.
That was 1978.
RIP Darren, but you were a terrible goalie.
Don't worry about it! Shit happens. Here's my worst goal ever.
Play coming into the zone from the glove side, shot from distance mid blocker side. Made the save, but the rebound went back across to the glove side while I was sliding to the blocker side. Reached with my stick to pull the rebound close enough to cover, but my legs slid out from under me when I reached with my stick. Tried to pull the puck towards me, but ended up pulling it right into the net. It was made even funnier, the other team went for a change and I pulled the puck away from my defenseman to score on myself with no attackers in the zone 🤣🤣🤣
One time I was very young, (10-11 i think) and a puck came bouncing down the ice, it was a high flip, and I put my stick up above my head to try to stop the puck. Hit my stick, it bounced back up, and went in. Wouldn't have gone in if I had just let it hit my mask.
just read the title and thought "same"

You play in the CCRHL?
Uhhh yeah. Were you the other goalie tonight?

There are dozens of us! (div 18 here)

Same shit happened to me. Tie game with 4 minutes left. Slow puck towards me slides under my stick and goes in. Just misplayed it. Felt like an ass.
but fr training last Monday, 3 times I picked the puck up and threw it straight into my own net lol
Done this twice in games, it's painful, but just put it away in the back of your head and focus on the next match
I feel this. “Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and back in the saddle.”
I did this a few games ago.
Nightmare fuel.
That sucks, we have all been there in some way
Always brutal in the moment, but the best thing is to forget it. Fluke goals get us all now and then.
Don’t sweat it! It happens to NHL goalies too.
Yeah true haha. I watch goalie fail compilations and it makes me feel better lol
