When the Zebra (referee) loses sight of the puck he is supposed to immediately blow his whistle and stop the play.

So if the puck ends up in the net after he's lost sight of it the goal should be disallowed.

I'll have a cider but none of that Growers or Okanagan crap.

Cheers

There's a very good cider from Vancouver Island Steve called Merridale. I'll google! Yeah, that Growers/OK stuff is disgusting!


--- yup, here it is: http://www.merridalecider.com/ Not sure how widely available it is, I just used to stop by the place and buy a crate now and then.

Thanks Steve - that's exactly what happened - I had never heard the expression "lose sight of the puck before"!

That's like a footie fan who has never heard the term 'offside'.

Nevermind! I'm cheering on the 'Canes cos the roster is better looking.

and it helps that there are more canadians on the canes team then the oilers.

I had just never heard it before....who knows with the years of attending hockey games I thought I would have.....

Hope you are well ro!

Actually I think there are more Canucks on the Oils roster and well Weight is like three 'Merikans to a real Oilers fan. But then I'm sure you knew that!

Thanks Ro, I've just bookmarked the link.

We'll be in the Duncan area around the first week of September I shall be looking them up. I'll need a months supply.

Cheers
Steve

Who knows for sure....Im just going by jim and his hockey buddies who told me that they should really be cheering for the canes because its "truly canadian"

Well the place is just south of Duncan, just off the highway and well worth a visit! I believe there are signs posted; I got there by habit!

Great recommendation Ro - wonderful place!

Hey Mr Barman

what does a girl have to do to get a drink


Sam Smiths, Newcastle Brown, any bitter will do!!!

It means the ref is a blind barsteward!!!!!!!!!

Don't they have an official behind the goal to signal that it is a goal?

Apparently not

Very strange that one, used to have one when I used to watch it.
