Don't get me started on that....:laugh:....the misinformation and half truths out there are infuriating (on both sides)....that's all I'm going to say on that since political discussion ALWAYS ends up in a vitriolic spew of nonsense and I don't want a fun thread to get closed

LOL! being an American living in Canada for the last 5 years and living with OHIP I just could not resist.

And by the way Goalies are rat-$h1T crazy. I have pads played net in a beginners league one year and now I wont put on the pads for anybody over the age of 12.

My 9 year old is the goalie playing rep hockey in Canada. I'll stick with Left wing in beer leagues.

It's funny that you say us targets goalies are "rat-$hit" crazy, because while I was in high school and college I was a diver (1 & 3 meter springboard into a pool, not [insert name of the main boards diver of the week] diver) and the swimmers thought us divers were nuts :D

Also a puckstopper...when they hit me. Made the switch about eight years ago after playing out all of minor hockey. Love it, rarely play out of nets these days!

Was a keeper for 20 years finally quit tending due to concussions, now when I do get on the ice, I screw around as a forward. Kind of weird, I don't feel like I have to be completely focused to do well as a forward now. lol

Grew up as a huge Cujo and Roy fan, emulated Roy early on, then emulated Fleury in the later stages of playing the net. (most goalies who emulated Cujo made me insane. lol)
