Hundred Degree Hockey: Going Dutch

Yours truly, writing for Hundred Degree Hockey back in July:

I was quite keen to continue playing as we prepared for our relocation to the Netherlands, but I couldn’t find any organizations similar to this - not just in Amsterdam, but really anywhere in the country. The only ice hockey I could find was Nederlandse IJshockeybond, the national senior hockey circuit. That seemed a bit over my pay grade, so I sold my hockey gear before we moved and sadly figured that my hockey career was largely over.

I was more than a little wrong.

We only barely finished our 2019-20 campaign before the pandemic, and it’s looking like our 2020-21 season is going to be wiped out as well.

I converted back to goalie last season and went 5-0 in net. Before the second wave suspended the current season, I also won 1 match, 12-6 against Alkmaar.
