[dustywilson22 143]

Ottawa Lynx and Komi's season has been under way so far and it's had It moments. Matter of a fact we'll hop into one now
-Setting is In Mississauga Hounds Arena game just got underway- 

Invader Zimothy Timothy shoots after a rebound chance it gets blocked but It's back in his possession and he shoots and scores! Ottawa Lynx Up first, Coach can be heard cheering on the bench same with the players. "Let's go boys thats how to start!" -Game continues but not much longer shots would be taken and Hank smith would get it Jay Sikes as he puts It In the net. Coach screams, but Komi just gets himself set back up. Hounds then get another. Another one comes through then before the end of the first Hounds passing it around and Kal El gets another for the hounds! 4-1 folks wow! Komi just putting his face into his glove. He mumbles to himself. "whats going on tonight." Coach pulls Komal to him after the end of the first. "Hey kid what's going on? you look rough out there." Komi shakes his head, "I'm not sure coach. They just have my number tonight I guess." Coach nods in agreement, "That's for sure. Listen Komi fix it or I'll have to take out from between the pipes. Komi nods and skates as his teammates try to give him encouragement. 

6 minutes in the 2nd Jay sikes gets another one in as its now 5-1. Komi knows he's about to be pulled and can't get his mind off of it. 30 seconds later Sidney buries one in the net! You're hounds up 6-1 Coach tells the ref and signals komi to come to the bench. The backup started getting strapped up after the last goal and was already ready to skate on by the time Komi made it to the bench. Coach pats him on the shoulder, "hey were gonna let you relax rest of the night Komi. You didn't do so great tonight, but just relax and we'll watch film later. Komi in disbelief as He's never been pulled before. He just shakes his head even letting down a tear as his teammates tell him to hold his head up. 

The game would end 8-2 as they would be making their way back home for their home game against the marlins. In the locker room after the game. "Okay guys that was a rough night. Let's put this one away in memory for sure. I'm not mad at anyone. It just didn't go our way. I don't want to hear anyone tearing another teammate down. Get yourselves dressed and we'll be getting on our flight as soon as we leave here, got it guys?" Yes sir, Ottawa on 3. 1,2,3 OTTAWA! Coach pulls Komi to the side, "Hey Komi step aside." Komi steps to the side and sets his bags down. "yes?" Coach lets out a huff, "well that was a rough one, don't feel like that was all on you though. It's a team sport remember that, just like in football. "yes sir." Coach taps him "come on kid cheer up. You're the starting goalie still don't worry about that, I just had to get you out of there tonight before your confidence went super low. We've kept you in before even when they scored a lot. The shots just weren't so many this time, so i knew it would be better just to switch goalies." Komi nods, "I know coach It just didn't make sense, felt like I couldn't do right." Coach shakes his head, "I know, but now what matters is how you bounce back from it. Do you let it eat you alive or do you learn from it and focus on the next game. The choice is yours." Coach pats him on the shoulder and walks away saying, "We've got a plane to get on, lets go." Komi grabs his belongings and follows coach. 

They would make it back home and manage to beat the marlins 3-2! The team was hype about a win in front of the home crowd. Coach would get loud to settle us down, "okay boys. Beautiful win tonight. That's how you bounce back. Just have to keep your head up as things take time." Coach breathes in and out, "Now there's obviously still mistakes were making, but what's there to be mad at. Not much especially after a win. Like i said, Watch film. Most importantly tonight is enjoy this win. Believe me this season goes by quick. Don't go crying over one game." Everyone nods in agreement. "Now lets get packed up boys and enjoy your nights!" Komi smiles as his family made their first game to come and watch him play. They said they were going to try and make some games this year. They would eat out with Komi paying for the meal seeing as he tries to not spend his money much on his own, so he figured the family deserved to be covered, especially after traveling all this way to come see him. They talked about how the teams been to him and how hockey's been a different level of preparation compared to preparing for football. 

So after Komi got home, he went and met up with his family to go out and eat. His Brother Is busy himself being a professional basketball player. He enjoyed eating out and when he made it home, he went straight to watching film. Finding out where he angled himself wrong, how he should of handled a rebound situation etc. Komi has been enjoying his time in Ottawa, but he definitely has been home sick as Being on a team In Ottawa is way different then being at a Stanford campus. This Apartment was just as amazing as when he arrived here before the beginning of the season. He now had Lynx merch more in the house as he's been given lots of It from the staff. Komi just keeps his mind running as soon Komi will have to be getting an agent for his draft contract to the vhl. Though he would just prefer to delay it a little longer, he's just enjoying being able to play the sport. The phone rings, Komi answers. 

Till next time folks!
