Cryptic Studios Hockey Team Wins League Championship (November 26, 2008)

11-26-2008, 02:39 PM

On Tuesday, November 25, 2008, the Cryptic Studios Roller Hockey Team culminated their season by winning their League Championship! We had a chance to talk to team members Craig ‘Zinc’ Zinkievich and Aaron ‘Head on a Swivel’ Safronoff about their victory and learn more about the team.

Quote:

Q: In what type of league does Cryptic complete?
A: CZ - We play in a roller hockey league at Rollin Ice (www.rollinice.com) in San Jose. We play in the D7 league – Rollin Ice says it “consists of almost all beginning players” – but really means mostly people who just learned to skate. : )

Roller hockey, huh? Sounds fun. What are some of those other South Bay-based teams that gave you guys a lot of trouble?

I'd say pack a Type-I phaser (small so the refs don't see it) and bring that to your games from now on. Guaranteed wins! Especially useful vs. Andorians with their unfair grew-up-on-an-ice-planet advantage.

Congratulations, Cryptic, on a job well done!

I noticed they have corporate broomball competition

Years ago, I worked in a plant with three shifts and we would have baseball games with a broom and a ball of tape.

Just kidding. Great job guys!
