Molly the Cat’s Christmas Vacation 

 

Unfortunately, the London United Playoff push ended quickly; it was disappointing. Now that they had extra time off, Molly the Cat decided to make the best of the situation by heading home for some Holiday cheer. Molly the Cat was looking forward to spending time with friends and family celebrating Christmas and the New Year. 

 

Luckily, Molly the Cat was able to book a flight from Heathrow Airport to Toronto with only one stop in St John’s Newfoundland. The flight from London to St John’s was as expected, slightly long but peaceful. However, upon arrival in St John’s Molly the Cat learned that there was a major winter storm expected for the Toronto region. Luckily, Molly the Cat’s flight from St John’s to Toronto was able to get out of St John’s before the bulk of the weather was expected to hit the Toronto area.  

 

Upon arrival Molly the Cat took a shuttle from the Airport to their parent’s house in the Niagara Region. It was a slow process as the highways were in terrible condition due to the weather, but Molly the Cat arrived safely. Resting for a couple of days, due to jet lag, Molly the Cat had a restful Christmas with family.

 

Moly the Cat has always been a huge fan of Christmas, family gatherings, wonderful baked goods, and Christmas dinner. Molly the Cat has always enjoyed Christmas dinner, roast turkey, creamy garlic mashed potatoes, stuffing, and their favorite gravy. I know it is a little strange, but Molly the Cat’s favorite Christmas Dinner side dish is the gravy. 

 

Now resting on Boxing Day, Molly the Cat is planning out the remainder of the week. New Year’s will be a celebration with friends, a quiet evening of talking and playing games. The games will be social and not overly competitive so that everyone can have a fun time. Between now and then however Molly the Cat plans to tour the Niagara Region, sight-seeing at the Falls, going to Safari Niagara to view the light displays and taking in a distillery tour at the Wayne Gretzky Estates Winery and Distillery in Niagara-on-the-Lake. 

 

After the new year celebrations, it will be back to work, getting ready for the next VHL season. Molly the Cat will be meeting up with Landon Wolanin in Calgary to work on their off-season training. This year Molly the Cat will continue a push on offensive skills. The focus will be on fine tuning the shooting skills already possessed to learn techniques to alter shooting angle, increase shot accuracy and increase puck release. Molly the Cat’s goal for the next season is to be one of the top 10 scorers in the league. 

 

Other goals for Molly the Cat this season are to hit 100 career goals (need only 20 to do this), finally get a 50-goal season and to achieve 200 career points (need only 42 to do this). Molly the Cat’s stretch goal is to have their first 100-point season. Molly the Cat would also like to win their first Playoff series. 

 

So, this is what the next couple of weeks will look like for Molly the Cat.
