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:
“We envy not the warmer clime, that lies
In ten degrees of more indulgent skies,
Nor at the coarseness of our heaven repine,
Though o’er our heads the frozen Pleiads shine:
‘Tis Liberty that crowns Britannia’s Isle,
And makes her barren rocks and her bleak mountains smile.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
“The landscape was clothed in a mild and quiet light, in which the woods and fences checkered and partitioned it with new regularity, and rough and uneven fields stretched away with lawn-like smoothness to the horizon, and the clouds, finely distinct and picturesque, seemed a fit drapery to hang over fairyland. The world seemed decked for some holiday or prouder pageantry ... like a green lane into a country maze, at the season when fruit-trees are in blossom.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
