Had about 8 USHL prospects doing the powerskating portion with us.

Last half of the class was all short ice game play. 3 on 3 with the nets 20 feet apart, cross ice 5 on 5 but wings and defense couldnā€™t cross the ā€œcenterā€ line. So it ended up being 2 defense vs 3 wings on each half. Hard drills that were fun.

Finished with the usual full rink length down and back sprints.

Iā€™m not dead yet.

Spent the last month focusing on hockey. Between the Adult Skills camp, hockey drop-ins, and my league games, I didnā€™t have enough time to recover with even 2 days of lifting every week.

Skills camp ended in a Fantasy game with former and current NHL and collegiate players being mixed up with the camp attendees.

I ended up having Warren Peters - NHL/AHL, the Suter boys-(D1 Collegiate Hockey/USHL/U18-AAA) on my bench. Played against Jed Ortmeyer -NHL/AHL, Dan Ellis - NHL Panthers and Alex Hudson - ECHL.

Dan was skating out and not playing goalie.

Won a face off against Jed.

Picked the puck off Danā€™s stick when he was going behind his net, which eventually lead up to my first goal :slight_smile:

I was the only non-pro to score a hat trick.

Jed and Warren talked to me after the game and commented on how much I had improved since they last saw me play a couple of years ago

I turned 52 last week.

Iā€™m sorting out a new lifting routine and will be back at it in the next week.

2B

Hockey hockey hockey hockey! Yay for not being dead!
