Nah, @SI90 is the worst of the bunch. Worst speller, anyways.
On a serious note, hopefully someone can help him out with this.

My daughter's hockey association is having an event for her at the Baierl Ice Complex in Warrendale on Monday November 8 at 7 PM.
Maybe call the rink and ask what you/this goalie can do to help with the "Support Willow and Girls Hockey" event.
My 10 year old daughter plays on an all boys team and we just had an incident where one of the boys cut off a piece of her hair when she was tying her skates.
So this event means a lot to me and many girls like my daughter who have to deal with this bull shit.

Thank you for the info and I’m sorry that happened to your daughter. No place in the game for that behavior.

High schoolers....man, what a bunch of shits. Kids can be downright evil to each other, Lord of the Flies type stuff if left unchecked.
George Chuvalo visited my high school a few years before I attended there. He was a heavyweight boxer who went the distance with Muhammed Ali twice (once was when they used to fight 15 rounds, after which Ali said he was the toughest man he ever fought) and is famous for having 93 professional heavyweight boxing matches without ever being knocked down. Not knocked out, but knocked down. Someone who fought the likes of Ali, Frazier and Foreman. Anybody who watched The Fly with Jeff Goldblum will remember a scene he was in, where Jeff Goldblum snaps George Chuvalo's arm in an arm wrestling match.
Anyway, he was talking about the dangers of drug use as he experienced first hand several tragedies. One of his sons got hooked on heroin after a motorcycle accident and ended up killing himself. His wife overdosed on prescription drugs just days later. If I'm not mistaken, two other sons died of overdoses as well. This is a tough man who had been through absolute hell in his life and was reliving his own nightmare over and over just trying to save some kids he doesn't know from getting into hard drug use and falling victims to addiction. My older sisters were two of the students listening to him talk, and they described how he got so upset he was rocking back and forth. Kids were making fun of him. A guy who still at that age (probably around 60 at the time) could physically pound anyone of those twits had he wanted to.
This kind of behaviour doesn't surprise me in the least. Get a group of people together and quite often they just become emboldened in their stupidity.

She actually got up and beat the shit out of him, and the coach and parent of this child handled it as well as we could have possibly asked.
My daughter always embarrasses this kid in battle drills and routinely gets him slamming his stick on the ice repeatedly when she pisses all over him. So we assume it was some kind of retaliation since he can't handle her on the ice - who knows. I know he would have never tried that with a boy teammate though.
Just frustrating, but she really gets along with most of her teammates so there is a positive for sure.

Many high schools in the area have had female players. Even back 15 or so years ago when I was playing. Given the area, this isn't terribly shocking to me. These bad apples didn't fall far from the trees.
