Numbers
We typically have at least 8, and rarely more than 14. We have 18 signed, and only two who are out of the line-up for injuries. The coach doesn't need to threaten...he just starts the guys who deserve to start based on their training base.
At this point in the season, most guys are getting at least 45 minutes, then there's a group of 8 of us who usually get 90.
It doesn't hurt that we have an exceptional group of committed guys this year. I think our 36 year old / father of two keeper has missed one practice. "Screw You Captain" and another guy make the trek all the way from Vancouver...it's a beautiful thing!
