2010-11 Rocks Season
The Rocks had some controversy in regards to using an illegal player, as defenseman Brendan Haefling suited up for four games with the Rocks. He was listed as a local player from Fergus, Ontario, however, he actually lived in Waterloo, Ontario, and should have been signed to an import card. Elora won those four games, however, the league punished the Rocks by counting those games as losses. All the stats in these games remained untouched. The games included in this controversy was two victories over the Durham Thundercats by scores of 6-2 and 6-3, an 8-2 win over the Shallow Lake Crushers, and an 11-4 victory over the Walkerton Capitals. It ended the Rocks regular season game winning streak at twenty-six games. Despite this, the club finished the year with a 20-6-0 record, finishing second in the North Division, with 40 points.

Famous quotes containing the words rocks and/or season:
“However patriarchal the world, at home the child knows that his mother is the source of all power. The hand that rocks the cradle rules his world. . . . The son never forgets that he owes his life to his mother, not just the creation of it but the maintenance of it, and that he owes her a debt he cannot conceivably repay, but which she may call in at any time.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
“The instincts of merry England lingered on here with exceptional vitality, and the symbolic customs which tradition has attached to each season of the year were yet a reality on Egdon. Indeed, the impulses of all such outlandish hamlets are pagan still: in these spots homage to nature, self-adoration, frantic gaieties, fragments of Teutonic rites to divinities whose names are forgotten, seem in some way or other to have survived mediaeval doctrine.”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
