Undefeated in 10
The great thing about coaching is seeing the improvement in the girls and the smiles when they can see it in themselves. It's a lot easier to see when you go on a streak like we just had of 10 in a row of being undefeated. 7 wins and 3 ties. I figured that doesn't tell the whole story so I'll throw some more stats into it.
28- Goals scored
27- Great goals and one shorty that brought happy tears
26- Questions of when, who and where do we play next
25- Penalties drawn
24- Times water bottles were forgotten in the room or elsewhere
23- Kilometers paced on the bench
22- Days to play the 10 games
21- Sticks retaped
20- Times of being proud of the girls (every time they stepped on the ice for a game and when they came off)
19- Penalties
+18- Goals for differential
17- More gray hairs in my beard
16- Pregame chats about nothing hockey related
15- Skates sharpened
14- Skates retied after the game has started
13- Girls coming together to achieve this impressive feat
12- Girls cheering on the cheerleader
11- Different goal scorers
10- Games undefeated
9- Trips back to the dressing room excited to play again
8- More speeches about referees
7- Different teams played
6- Different rinks played on
5- Shutouts
4- Away games
3- Tied games
2- Playoff wins
1- Desire by all to start another streak
