After the parking fiasco the day before, we decided to hop on the team bus to the Hockey Hall Of Fame. After the HHOF, the team went to lunchand then bck to the HHOF gift shop. Suffice to say, we became even happier about our decision to skip the bus.

So, to the tourney.....

We arrived a little after the team bus, and found they were all panicked because they saw winner pennants all over the rink, and Canadians play hockey way better/harder than Americans. So I pointed out that Ann Arbor (where Hector plays) has banners everywhere and is the host of the USA team, but still has house teams who win nothing.

Then we found out we're playing Canadian Rules. Slapshots allowed, soft offside, running clock..... Oh Fuck. We've been invited to be the laughing stock. Coaches spend the 30 mins before the 1st game explaining the new rules
