Clicking

It took us two full seasons. Partially due to skill, partially due to scheduling, mostly due to my lack of skill and scheduling, and the fact that Chow refuses to teach me to hockey stop. But after two seasons, the Chow Dang Chen line finally clicked, well kind of.

In the do or die game to make it to the playoffs, the reunited Chow Dang Chen line finally played like an actual line. In Gretzky-ian fashion there was a lot of behind the net play making and magic happening. Chow ended up getting a goal (I think).

As long as it took us to click though, it took a fraction of that time for it to click off. Two games later the Sharks were ousted in the first round of the play-offs. After finally clicking, we've ran out of games to play.

I hoped for a Selanne like Rookie season, and missed that by a bit. Anticipating a bounce-back Sophomore season, and that didn't play out the way I was hoping.

I need to find this Zone that athletes keep talking about, or I need to keep sucking to build up my Super Bar, and then Bam! Raging Demon!
