Freezing 🥶 time. @RinkWatchOrg

Hey RWers and ODR makers. Hope your spring is going well. If you haven’t already seen it on the Facebook ODR groups, there’s an ODR maker doing an online survey about insulating ODRs to reduce damage from short term thaws. You might find it interesting… https://t.co/iaMghm5qIM

Boards up. Happy Backyard Hockey season #ODR

[RinkWatch @RinkWatchOrg]

There’s a little magic in the RinkWatch stick tape we give to loyal participants. Goalie Alex M posted a shutout in last night’s old timers game in Kitchener.

[RinkWatch @RinkWatchOrg]

Wonderful article about NHL legend (and @laurier honorary doctorate recipient) Mike Richter and his life after hockey in The Athletic. https://t.co/kaIudgyPke

[RinkWatch @RinkWatchOrg]

@ultravioletprof @LaurierGreen @Laurier Yes indeed. He said Gretzky was amazing but Mario was unstoppable

[RinkWatch @RinkWatchOrg]

Mike Richter was asked at today’s event at @laurier, which NHLer of his day would he least like to face in a penalty shot. Can you guess his answer? 1st to post reply with correct answer wins some free RinkWatch swag.
