š„ LIVE ā TRI-STATE SHOWCASE FINALE Game 5 of 5 Cincinnati Jr Cyclones (Black) 14U AA š Oakland Jr Grizzlies (Gold) 14U AA š Team Toledo Ice House š Monday ā 9:00 AM (We think. Time is a social construct at this point.) Presidentās Day. Nobody knows what day it is. The hotel waffle maker has seen things. Letās close this showcase the right way. āø» š§ WHERE ARE WE? Toledo. Still. Same rink. Same glass. Same coffee that tastes like it was brewed during warmups on Friday. Itās Presidentās Day. Five games in three days. Everyoneās legs are heavy. Everyoneās voices are gone. Someoneās kid forgot a skate guard somewhere in Ohio. And weāre finishing with the Grizzlies. āø» š» SCOUTING REPORT ā OAKLAND GOLD Rating: 86.60 Record: 23-17-5 145 goals for, 114 against. They tied the Tri-State Spartans 3-3. We opened our season against the Spartans and took that wake-up call that changed how we played the rest of the year. Theyāve: ⢠Lost to Toledo ⢠Split with Fox Motors ⢠Beat Pittsburgh Vengeance 5-3 ⢠Handled some Michigan squads pretty confidently Theyāre physical. They play straight lines. They donāt back down. Theyāre close to our rating, so this one? This one is a toss-up. Which means chaos. Beautiful chaos. āø» š BROADCAST SITUATION REPORT Andrew is at actual work. Yes. Employment. The thing that funds this hockey addiction. So Hopp is solo. Letās pause for a moment and acknowledge the danger. Left alone with a microphone, Hopp can: ⢠Go silent for three straight shifts ⢠Narrate a dump-in like itās the Stanley Cup Final ⢠Or start mumbling about something unrelated entirely With Andrew off at real-life adult responsibilities, this is officially Joseās time to shine. The legendary XBot 9000 will be deployed. Not āstanding by.ā Not āmaybe.ā Fully activated. If youāve ever seen a kid unwrap the one thing they circled in the Christmas catalog⦠thatās Jose with the XBot. Heās been waiting for this. Polishing it. Updating firmware. Probably whispering encouraging words to it in the hotel lobby. And honestly? When Andrewās 47-wire, NASA-grade broadcast rig isnāt in the building, the XBot becomes the greatest invention since sliced bread. Simple. Clean. Point it at the ice and let it eat. Jose will be running the show from the command center Todd may be dialed in on speakerphone with a five-second delay just shouting āSHOOTā randomly. Two Minutes for Chirping may become: Thirty Seconds of Technical Difficulties. We ride. āø» šµāš« TEAM STATUS ā MONDAY MORNING EDITION Everyone is cooked. You can tell by the way the kids stretch. Itās less dynamic warm-up and more āI am 14 going on 47.ā Extra coffee may decide this game. If Prime Energy makes an appearance in the locker room, we will not confirm nor deny. āø» š§ GOALIE CORNER Michelle and Lynn have held down the goalie corner like seasoned NHL crease coaches all weekend. Water bottles filled. Towels ready. The sacred goalie head nod between periods. By now theyāve seen enough rubber to start charging admission. āø» š§ HOCKEY DAD ENERGY CHECK Billy - One more missed call and a blood vessel might actually file a complaint. Grant is still at the glass, staring with that look of: āDid that really just happen?ā Every parent here has: ⢠Spent $60 on rink food ⢠Said ākeep your feet movingā at least 47 times ⢠Pretended not to calculate the cost per minute of ice time āø» š„ PLAYER NOTES ā PRESIDENTSā DAY EDITION Neeko is still fully committed to slap-shotting everything. Pass? Slap shot. Clear? Slap shot. Warm-up? Probably slap shot. Braxton is still chirping gravity itself. Jackson is still looking for hits even if the opponent has left the zone. Beans? We assume heās present. If not, someone text him. At this stage of the weekend, you donāt overthink. You just compete. āø» š WHAT THIS GAME IS Itās not about standings. Itās not about rankings. Itās about: ⢠Finishing strong ⢠Competing through fatigue ⢠Showing what three days of hard hockey builds You donāt grow playing soft schedules. You grow playing teams like this. āø» ā KEYS TO THE GAME 1. Short shifts. Nobody hero skates on Monday morning. 2. Stay disciplined. No lazy stick penalties. 3. Keep it simple. 4. One more good effort before everyone collapses in the car. āø» š§” BIGGER PICTURE This showcase? Loaded with strong teams from Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan. The season? Worth every mile. Metro League Tournament next weekend ā top seed. St. Louis in March. Tryouts looming. 16U around the corner. This groupās been tight. Parents have bonded. Kids have grown. Weāve gotten every pennyās worth of hockey. āø» š¬ FINAL THOUGHT Game 5 of 5. 9 a.m. Presidentās Day. Coffee level: critical. Voices: gone. Legs: questionable. Heart: still there. Letās finish this thing. If Hopp goes silent, just assume something exciting is happening. Letās close out Toledo the right way. š»š„ š„
