CG came to the rink on Friday night in a cloud of controversy. The future of the team is uncertain as they have been asked not to return in the fall. Silent was the man holding all the info and he was not able to make it until the end of the first period. So the discussion on the bench was mostly about the grave news and the future of the team. In between discussions the players found time to be a short handed Raw Thrills team. Pinkie played solid and the team jumped to a 3-1 lead in the first and coasted to a 5-3 win. Silent held a press conference in the locker room to give everyone the story. The team was devastated. The Gentle Giant commented after the game,"It just doesn't feel real". This was the feeling shared by the team who had be the B-League mainstay for the past 10 years. CG has made the playoffs for the past ten consecutive seasons. The team has been to the league championship game 4 times winning it 3 times. The team's impressive resume could not save it from its demise. Unless they can be saved at the zero hour by a miraculous change of heart by the league's brass.
The Jacket was not awarded because everyone's mind was else where.
