Low Numbers=Less Ice times

We have been a little short on numbers over the holidays therefore we have decided not to book a xmas ice time.

HAVE NO FEAR !!!

We will have a X-Mas Eve ice time (Sunday the 24th) from 10:00am to 12:00pm. Guess we're doing it the French Canadian way - opening presents on X-Mas Eve as opposed to waiting for X-Mas mornin'.

MERRY X-MAS EVERYONE!!!

hope to see you out on the eve. nothing like a bit of skating before hitting the turkey.

Low Numbers Brings Xmas Jeers

It looks like T-bone was right in his previous blog posting about many people exiting the peninsula. This past Sunday, when I arrived at the rink after battling the mightiest snowstorm Seoul has ever seen I was devastated to see I was the only on there. But, "Have No Fear" Tommy soon showed up with a buddy from Inchon in tow. It turns out he's a goalie too! go figure! Whilst Tommy and I waited and started to phone around to see who we could rouse out of bed an extremely hung over Lexi came trodding through the snow with everybody's favourite Swede(until World Jr's start anyways) Kim. Still wondering where all the players were we headed for the dressing room to get ready for our ice tim and Steve Hawkins wonders in all the way from Paris where he was drinking French Wine and learning new French phrases that he could try out on Karl. Speaking of Karl he was captured by the North Koreans on Sunday and accused of being a spy for the South. Now we all know why he lives so close to the DMZ. Good news though, our other beloved assistant captain has confirmed his presence for Sunday. So those that want to hear about his time in NK prison camp come on out this Sunday.

All in all on Sunday we didn't have a good turnout, we had enough for 5 aside with 2 goalies and one sub each.. not fun hockey folks. Tommy's buddy Brad who hadn't played on skates in 5+ years did a stand up job battling Rene for the goalie honour. For those who were who drunk in bed too bad you missed a great goaltending display on the upstairs rink no less..

On Wednesday it was the same story. Tommy and myself were the 1st two to arrive and the first thought through our heads was "not again" but alas it was as if the hockey god's decided not to bless this week. The turnout was even worse than Sundays. The dark team had 4 players and the White team had 4 players with one sub.. again not fun hockey.. but we made due. Clark showed up with two pretty Korean girls on his arms but he didnt' have enough money to keep them throughout the whole game.. too bad..Cole decided to make his official comeback he signed a 4 year deal with the Chiefs worth a lot of money (rumour have it at 2 million a year Korean \ of course).. he's not contending for the #1 goalie spot between Tommy and Rene more on that to come..The goalies were the stars of this game putting up with end to end rushes with not much in the way of defence.. both goalies were solid (just ask Clark) Hockey is at 10am this Sunday! for those who haven't been coming out come on out! we need the players!!!!

Fa ra ra ra ra ! !

Seasons greetings,

Like every December many seek to exit the peninsula, whether it is to a hotter sun or to family back home. For those who can't get a chance to get away, there will be some good skates for you to come out and enjoy. We have Wednesday and Sunday ice, with our monthly Inchon IceHoles game on the 31st at 10 am. Let's leave the 2006 year with a win! It was a great close game last time and should be another good one. We should know this week if there is a Christmas day ice time.
This is one of the fun pics Angelo took last Sunday. The team pic will be available soon. We're just photoshopping it up to get rid of hangovers. Happy holiday's to all !

Eat, Drink and be Merry !

RMT Chiefs Pull out a Big "W"

November 26th, 2006

The Chiefs showed up Sunday morning with a full roster and were hungry for a win. Their competitor, and friends, the "Evil" Inchon IceHoles. Conditions were just right. A 10 am start, let the cobwebs fall and we seemed confident. There were even two back ups (Joakim and Jay) at the rink ready to go, incase of any no shows.
Reff Terry, got the game underway after a good warm up. Through the game there would be a bit of stick work but Terry kept it under control. The game would see the Chiefs go on the board first, but it would be quickly answered by three from Inchon.
The second saw the Chiefs want to win. Later in the 2nd the Chiefs went on and scored 4 goals and the I-Holes netting one more. The 3rd started at a score of 5-4 and would see another quick goal by the fired up Chiefs. Inchon would score again to make it a close one however having to pull their goalie late in the third, late Jack would get the empty netter to secure the Chiefs win at 7-5.
I must say, because we play Inchon usually every month and they have been spanking us for the past 4 games in a row, this win feels really good. Good work to all those who played. Next month we'll be rotating in players who sat out(thanks to those who did) or couldn't play in this game. Got it?
3 stars go to:

3 Jack
2 Scrawny Corry
1(Burrito and Coke) Ryan Casssssssavant

Chiefs can win !

Go Chiefs GO

The Chiefs go to Daegu..part 1

A troop of 13 (Spark, Roberts, Lexi, Darren, Tommy, Tbone, DJ, Isaiah, Rachel, MiYoung, Clark, Jimbob and Rene) took off Friday, November 17th on the KTX, destination Daegu. Saturday the troop got 4 more recruits (Joakim,t-Rowe,Craig and Jamie). Friday's pregame party was a good, but it would not be better than the "Sparky, Super Saturday, Take your pants off, Birthday Bonanza"
Before the party we would be very kindly hosted, by the home team Daegu Thunder-Birds. They put on a great event, with music, shoot to win and an amazing number of fans! I'm surprised that they didn't have a Coaches Corner!!
The game would see The Chiefs score first to hush the almost capacity crowd of 150. They would not be silent long however. The T-Birds would get on the board soon after, and the game would continue to go back and forth by one goal. A total of 9 goals would be scored but the Chiefs would loose to a score of 5-4. Goal scores for The Chiefs were, Jamie Cottin, Craig with a pair, Clark, and Lexi...almost.
Your RMT three stars are!
# 3 the Clark Rene Duo, for best goal celebration ever.
2 the Jamie got wheels, Craig loves D, Duo
1 Jimbob the tender
*There will be a Dos Tacos burrito set given to Jamie and Jimbob. You should just be able to go to the Gangnam location and tell them you are with the Chiefs Hockey Club and they owe you a Burrito and coke.
Come on out for Wednesday hockey tonight. See you there!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHIEFS !!

The Chiefs had their first skate on this day, October 19th, 2003 at 7am Sunday morning. Most had a stick, skates, mandatory helmet, and no clue if we could get another ice time.

Now to date we've had
2 trips to Mongolia (donating over 10 full sets of used gear)
2 visits to the Kimchi Pot, Seoul.
4 intersquad tournaments
1 season in the Jim Paek Hockey League
many games with the Inchon, IceHole hockey club
Over 100 players from over eight countries
3 barbecue fundraisers
4 Jersey designs
oh, and just a "few" parties, beers, and good times

LONG LIVE THE CHIEFS!!

Mayhem in Mokdong! Manglers Massively Mangled !

<----- Manglers please read. Spirits were high on Sunday morning for the opening day of the Chiefs Fall Tourney. Spirits were also at high levels on the breaths of many as they laced up! The TommyHawks seemed calm as they got ready. The Manglers were trying to get fired up with a few tunes and trying not to give up hope on their #1 pick showing up. With the TommyHawks one man short and the Manglers 2 men short, the game got underway with the drop of the puck by veteran Chief, Jeremy Sands. It was a quick paced game and the T-Hawks came out on top quicky. With a three shot warm up, Rene and his team would quicky be down with little hope of making a comeback. Tommy, did not see many shots however most of the ones he did, he made some pretty good stops. The T-Hawks got the puck out of their zone quicky and the Manglers seemed to almost enjoy keeping it in theirs.. that being said the horn went and the TommyHawks were victorious, taking game one 11-3
Three Stars of the game
3 Steve'o
2 Tommy
1 Line 1.2.3 for the team in White

Game two of the Sunday double header saw The Manglers vs the Smelly Tacos. (I still don't understand that name) The Manglers were down in spirit however they came out quick in this game. They appeared warmed up and took a quick 4-0 lead. That lead would not last long. The stick of Aaron Geddes was fast, and working hard. He netted an amazing 6 goals.
This was a tough fought battle and was the best game yet in the tourney. Tom Daniel's one timer fed from Karl was a beauty! The Geddes, off the faceoff goal still haunts Rene, T-bone's broken stick (would have been in) and Jack's twisty turns were all great highlights. This game was also the most physical game so far. Let it be noted that CLAY took the first penalty. He's usually good for one, haha.
*just a note to all...the tourney does see an increase in speed. Keep your heads up.
When Sands finally called the game, it was the Manglers 7 and the Tacos 11. Guess the Manglers should have just went to 7-11 and drowned their losses.
I think most enjoyed the first day of play. Having the score clock was a really nice addition. For any who think two games is easy, it's not. But for any who think it's too much, it's not. It's still fun.
Three stars are:
3 Rene "the puck stopped here a few times" Boucher
2 Tom Daniel
1 Aaron geddes
See you all on Sunday. Good luck to all!
Oh, and we've taken Rene's pads to the lab to see if the stolen pucks are stuck in there somewhere.

This is just too good not to pass on. For all of us in Korea, it is extremely difficult to get access to any type of hockey. Well, do we have a present for you.

It's a P2P program that broadcasts real-time TV programs live over the Web. It has ESPN, ESPN2, Movie channels, Comedy Central and a bunch of other channels the most important of which is

NHL Centre Ice

Chiefs Pirate Radio

We are going to try to get access to the rink stereo system for the tourney. We aren’t sure if it will possible but we’ll give it a try. So we are asking whoever is interested to submit a playlist of music they would like to hear during the games. Use the comments section to submit your playlists
