Drove back to our room before the game yesterday,

had returned by the start of the first period,

the game was another good showing for us,
with decent offense and d,
encouraging to see the boys come together […]

Home opener was last night,
which was a testy and close affair,
with many good chances for a knight,
in the end, a point shot won it,
goal three with three thirty-three left in the third,
off the stick of Cody,
it was a beauty, you must admit.
