Love hockey as well, but being Canadian, I don't imagine that was much of a shock to anyone.
This year is the first year in 10 yrs my son isn't playing hockey. I knew this day was coming but boy did it come quick!!
Being a trainer, an assistant coach and being on the bench is something I loved and looked forward too.
Their is a bit of hope as my son had a High School hockey tryout Monday night, which surprised me, so hopefully he sticks with that so I can catch a game or 10, but if one of his buds backs out, I'm afraid he will too.
On the bright side, and although I wouldn't change anything to watch my son play, at least I'll have more time for snowmobiling this winter.
On a side note, I went to the Oshawa Generals game last Sunday night and saw Bobby Orr!
He was back in Oshawa again signing books at our local Costco and decided to check out a game where it all started.
There wasn't much of a crowd at the game but all the 3,642 people who attended, all gave him a roaring applause/standing ovation.
