Last night I played in my usuall pick up league. I played goalie, and I'm not a goalie. It's a fun time, no check, just go out, split up, and play. I am a forward. But I fill in as a goalie when my uncle, who rents the ice, can't find a goalie. He was running short skaters last night so he scrapped the bottom of the barrell.
He invited a guy he didn't know, who dressed EXACTLY like Alexander Ovechkin. He's a decent player. But looked like an idiot. Especially when he scored on me. Which isn't that hard to do seeing as I'm not a goalie. After he scored on me he did the 'get down on one knee, dragging your other leg and windmill your arm' thing and I swear on my love for hockey, kissed his glove and pointed to the sky like AO.
The other guys found this so obsurd. One guy said to him 'hey buddy, you want the puck? I know it's the NHL and scoring on a guy who plays goalie once in a blue moon is a large occomplishment, one for the record books.'
Needless to say, he took a rough beating the rest of the game around and away from the puck.
By the way, we ended up loosing the game 7-6. The go-ahead goal was kinda stupid because the puck went into the bench, and the guy threw it to our guy, the worst defensman on the ice, and he went to give it to the other Dman and it was intercepted by the other team and they scored because I was just turning around from getting a drink of water, and didn't have any idea what was going on.
Maybe the best game I've played, 7 goals on about 20 shots. Not a all that great, but my personal best.
