So I just looked on Wikipedia and apparently this show will have ten episodes this season, not six like I thought. That actually does alleviate some of my complaints about the pacing of the season and what it's chosen to highlight so far. That said, the show really needs to start focusing more on kids playing hockey and less on "Mom upset about how her career opportunities turned out".

The show is clearly just dawdling around, killing time. A movie would force them to be concise.

And we still don’t know what Gunner Stahl is doing these days.

Here’s the plot we deserved, rather than the varsity villain one we got: M link

Just watched episode five - {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}So apparently since the last time we saw the Don't Bothers play a game, they've played three games off-camera (lost them all) and have developed into a passable over-all team. It's a good thing they didn't waste our time showing us any of this because then we would have missed all that passive-aggressive bickering between middle aged Moms.
Oh, and remember Sofi, that super hockey player that they spent the last few episodes chasing down to try to get her to join there team? They follow that up by making her a complete and total non-factor in the teams first win. Seriously guys, what are you doing?
Oh well, the next episode looks like it might have something resembling an actual plot.

I'm a little annoyed about how much a nonfactor Sofi was too. In fact, pretty much the entire team was a non factor that game except Evan. I'm still enjoying it overall. Nothing groundbreaking but solid enough television.

My guess is. {Spoiler}Evan decides to take the Ducks up on the offer, devastating the Don’t Bothers who want to disband. Gordon rounds up the D5 Ducks to teach Evan what it means to be a team but I don’t care, because the OG Ducks are back and that’s what I wanna see. As far as the kids go, Nick is probably the most consistently entertaining one.

Just saw it, and my big take-away is: {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}how badly the Hawks have fallen since the first movie. Now that the Don't Bothers have beaten them, they are officially the worst team in the league. Nice little Easter egg, but they should've mentioned that they were a former powerhouse, and that Gordon used to play for them.
I also wish we could've seen who their coach was, if it was someone who played for the team in the movie.

So I watched the latest episode, have a lot of opinions on it, some good some bad, but in the end this was all I could take away from it -
Adult Averman looks like a Kate McKinnon character.

Loved it. Fulton Reed really came across as an actual human who had aged, Averman a little less so and everyone else not so much. {Spoiler}They address the lack of Joshua Jackson, somewhat. Another breadcrumb I saw in this episode that’s maybe building for season 2...if one is coming.

So about the OG Ducks... {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}1) Love that Connie and Guy ended up married. 2) I guess that Adam Banks didn't go too far with Hockey. It was led to believe he was the one that had a legit shot at an advanced career in the sport. 3) He wasn't there, but it sounds like Charlie is still the whiny bitch he was in D3.

But that's what I get for making up fan-fiction in my head.
