| As the second game was about to get underway, one of the Jr. 
			Everblades parents mentioned the team we were about to face, the 
			Palm Beach Hawks, were technically a AA team, and they should have 
			been in the division above us.
			 Once the game started, that fact quickly became evident. Drew and 
			his Jr. Everblades teammates had a strong start to the game, but 
			their passing always seemed to come up a bit short. This could be 
			due to the lateness of the game, the fact that we were on the main 
			arena ice, or that this team was just one step quicker to the puck 
			compared to us. We ended the first period with a score of 0-2, but 
			the team was determined to make a strong showing. 
			The next two periods had the Hawks scoring a couple extra goals, 
			but overall the game was a lesson well received. Our players held 
			their heads high even though they walked away with another loss for 
			the day, this time by a 7-0 score.  |
