FCHL Temp Home

Blindsides could break the losing streak record by the end of the weekend.

vs Lost Cause Thursday
DH vs NMH and KCR Friday
vs Broadway on Saturday
vs The Ales on Sunday.

Now, you've got 3 super hard games up top to get you to 15 losses... but then you've got the non-playoff Broadway and the abysmal Ales.

I wouldn't be surprised if you peaked at 15 or tied it at 16. Not sure you'll break it.

Also, it's not a record you want to hold.

I don't think I'll win against Ollie...icing half a lineup and my goalies are playing each other. Plus it would be our fourth victory in a row, and it's been made clear to me the Lost Cause is not permitted a sustained winning streak.

Well that should put this thing on ice once and for all, then.

What's Dubey looking at. Hopefully he beats the NMH and we can stop with all this streak nonsense.

Smart move.

 Are these Ales as Abysmal as the Toronto Craft Ale scene or are we talking Ottawa bad?

---

 Pfft... Toronto craft beer scene is dope.  They named a brewery after me for god's sake!  So ya, The Ales are far worse.

I couldn't name a single worth while Toronto Ale Zach. It's a dead scene.

I guess when I think about Toronto beers, I'm thinking of GTHA or even further, because that's what ends up in our LCBO.

But Toronto has some great ones. The problem is, it's Toronto, so the really good ones go kind of mainstream and lose that cache.

Like, Boneshaker or Cruiser are great from Amsterdam, depending on if you want something strong or a session ale, but Amsterdam is all over the place now.  At least around here.

Yeah I'm talking out of my ass. There are about 100 good ones out here though.

---

Oh I'm sure of that. 

There's a lot of real good beer here too. If I'm drinking at home or a house party or whatever, I can walk into any LBCO and grab 8 different IPAs without breaking a sweat. 

 

Collective Arts out of Hamilton has kinda been the next big thing here lately.

Probably too mainstream for you cool kids, but I like Mill street quite a bit. Organic, vanilla porter, hundredth meridian, whatever their stout is called. All delicious

I had their 100th Meridian the other night. It's alright, I just prefer IPAs. That's an amber lager, but it was the strongest thing they had on tap. Lol.

Prepare yourselves, folks.

We have games tonight, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.

Chara is available.

it's another no-goalies DH btw. Lol.

I feel like this could be the year, I have a small chance to pull off the grand slam of fantasy sports (AHL & FCHL in the same calendar year)

Blindsides' losing streak is ending tonight. Golden Seals keeping the longest losing streak record dream alive.

Oddly enough I have no goalies on Saturday...vs Seals.

I would say the brewery scene has really taken off the last few years but only about a half dozen - dozen worth talking about it.

Best watering hole to sample them is probably Craft Beer Market at the revamped Lansdowne Park.

I'm book marking it for my next trip there.
