I played all three games this weekend against the Flyers, and I got an assist in each game. All three assists came from my shots from the point. I'm happy with the way I played. For the most part, I felt comfortable. I made some mistakes here and there, but I really think I played well this weekend. I played within myself, made passes, shot the puck, and did my job aside from a few small mental errors I had that never really hurt our team. I wasn't on the ice for any of their goals all weekend, but I could've been. In the last minute of the last game when we were up 4-3, I tried to keep the puck inside our offensive blue line, and I let a guy get behind me, and the puck squirted out behind me. I gave up a 2-on-1, and, luckily, they didn't score on it. Our goalie bailed me out, but it still was not a very good play. The thing is, though, that I haven't played in that kind of situation all year. This is only the 7th game I've played with the Steelheads, and it's the 14th game I've played all year, and in half of those games I played in limited situations. I'm still learning, still getting better, and I'm still going to make mistakes. But that's part of learning.
Besides that one serious mistake at the end of our 3rd game, I think I played really solidly this weekend. And it was fun having my mom around to watch too!
