Hockey:
A legal addiction that becomes a hockey player’s life.
Hockey is a passion.
It releases you; setting you free to
grow, inspire, experience, and live.
It’s an addiction, a high, a 60 minute orgasm.
An Example of Passion, Life, and Love;
Because there is nothing in the world that can compare
To getting up at 4:30 in the morning,
Your eyes still gritty,
The equipment wet from last night's game,
Your every muscle aching,
And stepping on to that cold, clear, fresh ice.

Hockey- my dream, my life, my inspiration.
Right wing- my place, my responsibility, my position.
The Rink- my home, my get-away, my sanctuary.
37- my reputation, my pride, my number
