A Beautiful Day (For Hockey)

“Every day is a great day for hockey.”

=Mario Lemieux

Sorry to move away from the hiker theme of the blog, but I got some good photos of my daughter celebrating her two goals and after a collision! Even though they lost 5-3, it was a hard fought game and the entire team played well!

Back on her feet celebrating a couple of seconds later!

And the last two pictures showing her after a collision with someone from the other team.

The Last Game of 2017

“Every day is a great day for hockey.”

-Mario Lemieux

“All hockey players are bilingual. They know English and profanity.”

-Gordie Howe

Tonight was the last hockey game of 2017 for my daughter. Thankfully, the team won 3-2 and Hope even got an assist on one of the goals. Who says girls can’t play hockey? Speaking of young ladies, if you haven’t already, take a look at the second quote. I don’t know if Gordie Howe meant to include women, but I can tell you with 100% certainty that the young ladies who play hockey are fully aware and use with no hesitation every  curse word under the sun. Don’t let anyone tell you different!!!!!!

Yes, my daughter plays hockey…

“Half the game is mental; the other half is being mental.”
-Jim McKenny
My daughter has been playing hockey, both roller and ice, for about eleven years. She currently is a defenseman on a Girls U19 travel team for Pawling Youth Hockey.
