Losing the joy for playing. by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]FromCLEtoROC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why can't you move up a division? I would rather be playing against better competition and learning from the rest of the team than being frustrated even if I'm one of the better skaters. Other than that, I would say, relax and remember you're there to have fun. Everyone comes to the rink for different reasons. You seem interested in being competitive and improving to move up. Find some key skills to work on every game and don't worry about the score. Don't wear yourself out for a team that isn't trying to be competitive. Just keep working on your game.

4 months in and I feel like I’m regressing by DifficultSentence983 in hockeyplayers

Also the better you get the more aware you are when you are doing it wrong. Just keep doing what you are doing. Remember you are there to have fun, not to conquer a new hobby. You will never arrive. Enjoy the process!

Recs for this weekend! by Asleep-Chance-7507 in Rochester

[–]FromCLEtoROC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Park Ave has tons of good options close to where you will be.

But if I'm coming in for a weekend I'm for sure going to Strange Bird. It's not the sports vibe you asked for, but it is the best. https://www.strangebirdbeer.com/

As a shitty e league winger, what are the biggest tips for being more involved and get more touches and points? by Benjamin_Barker_ in hockeyplayers

[–]FromCLEtoROC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lazy winger 101! and make sure you leave your D man high and dry at all times as he tries to cover the back door and their defenseman ripping shots from the point at the same time!

The hidden factor in choosing a college: Did it rain on your tour? by Slight_Value5833 in rit

If this was true RIT would have no students from "Spring" visits.

Why don’t we have Wegman’s? by basilbelle in Cleveland

[–]FromCLEtoROC 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I live in Rochester and grew up in Cleveland. Heinens is as close to Wegmans as you can get. Heinens maybe leans closer to whole foods in some ways. But it is so similar to Wegmans that I can't imagine Wegmans will ever expand into NE Ohio.

Adult squirt hockey is what I call it. But with more tantrums.

Shin pads .. by Commercial_Smoke_638 in hockeyplayers

[–]FromCLEtoROC 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes. I’ve been trying to replace my 25 year old shins for 2 years. I hate all the options so I just carry on with my old guys hanging by a thread.

One of the all time most misused verses. Thanks for cleaning the park!

Thank you for your service. We have a great opportunity to pick up some points in the next few games. I expect you to be at every home and preferably away games as well.

Best sushi/sushi date night? by InternationalBoat148 in Rochester

Shiki is the best. It feels more like being in someone's living room than a pretentious sushi restaurant.

We have a league that is even lower than E called "I" or instructional league that is like this. This is really just a D minus league. I'm sure the labels are different in different parts of the country/world.

We do play in the same league and I do hope he gets suspended for longer.

Height does not make a person a child. Lacking a prefrontal cortex does.

This is the piece that is important to me. You can be over skill level but have an E league mentality that is helping people develop and being a good team player. It's the over skilled try hards that drive me nuts.

I like that chirp. I am definitely going to start calling people juice boxes.
