This past Saturday night, we travelled to the southwest corner of the greater Paris region to play against Meudon. This promised to be an intense game as the Meudon rink features a small ice surface and as we are currently the number 4 ranked team in the division and Meudon is 5th, playoff positioning was definitely on the line.
Unfortunately for both teams and the fans in attendance, the zamboni driver decided to drop the blade a couple of extra inches midway through one of his passes. The result: a 3 inch deep hole measuring 2 feet by 6 inches in diameter right down to the concrete. Needless to say, the match could not be played.
A make-up date has not yet been set, but there is some speculation that it will be held in Asnieres when it does occur. All in all, it was a bit of a wasted night, but these are the things that can happen away from the bright lights of the NHL.
