Hello Hockey Fans
October 16th 2009
Sorry for the communications interruption but my wife and I went for a short trip in western Canada last week and it was not possible for me to maintain the site to date during that time. However I am pleased to say that the Vipers have very committed friends in the far west. We met two families, formally from Legal, who are still keeping in touch with what is going on in the Legal Hockey Circles.
The pre-season is now over and I understand the Vipers did quite well. Many players showed up for the training camp, thus making the coaches' selection duties that much more difficult. However this is a more enjoyable task than having a shortage of candidates to pick from. To all the players who tried for the team and failed to break into the line-up, the Legal Vipers hockey organization wishes to thank you for the interest and enthusiasm you have displayed throughout the camp. Hopefully some of you might get recalled as the season progresses.
On the eve of the new season, the Vipers' fans are excited and looking forward to again another thrilling season. The 2009-10 edition of the Vipers is different with new players cracking the line-up this year, but don't panic, many of the original players are still going to be there to provide you with thrills and excitement starting with the Vipers' first home game on Saturday.

The Vipers win their first exhibition game
The vipers came from behind to win their first exhition game by a score of 6 to 5. After falling behind, by a margin of two goals, the Vipers rallied in the third to claim the victory against Tofield.
The two teams played good hockey and showed a lot of character in a game that had no significance in terms of standings in their respective leagues. The victory is nice to claim but the fact that the players gave it all they had is encouraging for the coaches who are trying to determine who will or will not make the line-up. The next Vipers' game is on the 9th of October in Onoway.
Les Vipers l'emporte contre Tofield
Dans un effort common les Vipers de Legal ont remporté la victoire contre l'équipe de Tofield hier soir par un pointage de 6 à 5. Les deux équipes ont démontrées beaucoup de caractère dans un match sans conséquence pour une équipe autant que pour l'autre. Les Vipers durent jouer du hockey de rattrapage pour vaincre Tofield dans un match chaudement disputé. Il faut souligner que l'équipe n'y allait pas nécessairement de ses meilleurs éléments mais il est raisonable de croire que l'équipe de Tofield ne présentait pas non-plus son meilleur alignement. La prochaine partie des Vipers aura lieu le 9 octobre à Onoway.
