Why Play in Shoes?

I will start out by saying I just found this site and I'm happy to see that anyone in Seattle is playing hockey at all. I used to play at Arena Sports out in Redmond until those lousy B*****rds closed down the hockey rink, and ever since I have been SOL when it comes to playing. So here is my question for you guys: why don't you play in skates? I would be down to come out and play in skates, but I am not gonna play in shoes. Are skates even optional?

If anyone wants to play some other time in skates let me know because I am dying for hockey. I may have to leave this damn city soon if I can't find someone to play inline hockey with!!

I'll even let you use our site to promote your game! Our game started about 5 years ago with 2 overweight guys shooting a ball at a wall...; ▶ Reply to This
