Not really watching, but figuring out the driving tomorrow. Out of town tournament and first game is 11L30 in Napanee. So I was wondering how far it is from the rink to the hotel (figured maybe my wife could take my other daughter and check in while I'm at the first game). Google maps showed 2 hours 36 minutes. What? Apparently whiteout conditions on the 401 resulted in a serious accident just outside Kingston that's got it backed up all the way to Gananoque. We have snow on the way (total of 4 cm expected today and overnight) and I was planning on taking highway 7 to the arena. Now I'm not so sure. Will 7 be plowed or will I be better off taking the 416 to the 401? It's about 50 km longer that way but driving time is almost the same. Driving conditions will make all the difference.

I'll be leaving at 8AM.

I generally prefer the 416 just because it's multiple lanes, but 50km longer is significant. The 416 will likely be better if there's any amount of snow though. I dunno...you're kind of doomed either way. Best of luck.

And if the noon game tomorrow isn't enough the coach called a practice for 7PM tonight. I don't want to go. My daughter doesn't want to go. The turkey in by bowel probably doesn't want to go either. Had to get up at 6 this morning to drive my son to his 7AM shift (sure, he gets time-and-a-half, what do I get) and then tomorrow will likely have to get up at 6:30 to pack and leave by 8. My parents never paid $780 for hockey registration plus $200 team fees and various other incidental expenses just so they drive three hours to spend $300 on a hotel room and spend the weekend in a cold arena. My parents *were* smart after all.

Yeah, a part of me is very happy my older daughter hasn't shown any interest in playing hockey. A couple of my buddies have their 5 and 6 year old boys in hockey, and routinely have 6 or 7am practices on the weekend. It sucks having to get up that early AND then have to wake a sleeping kid up. My older daughter has just been in activities at normal times of the day...gymnastics, dance, swimming, and soccer.

To top it all off, hockey is just so bloody expensive, especially with the travel.

Good luck on your drive tomorrow, Walt.

One of the fais I didn't have either one in hockey until peewee was the early morning practices. Talking to my daughters coach, he said when he first got into coaching it was for his son's atom team and pretty much every Saturday was a 6 or 7 AM practice e and he had no choice but go, since he was the coach.

Most practices had six or seven kids showing up, and by the end of the year his son was the best skater, since he was there every single practice.

More than turrible, it was such a change of direction from an excellent season.

Not as much as I used to. This was a marquee matchup, and it disappointed as usual.
