A year without Hockey

My season and junior hockey career ended by falling short to the playoffs with the CT Chiefs on February 28th, 2020. I was injured (but still playing), touring multiple college campuses, texting and emailing with college coaches to get them to come see if what I had to offer was good for their program.  Energy, Speed, relentlessness, passion and loyalty. Injured or not, I was driven to get on a college team and take the next step in my life. Then as I was a phone call away from commiting to a college, that's when the world literally started shutting down. 14 days to flatten the curve.  The hockey world, while I was at a rink watching pro sports, shut down right before my own eyes. People preluding to wearing masks even before the mandatory mask mandates and breaking news that weekend of a national shutdown across the U.S. I was heartbroken, stressed and feared what would happen next for everyone in everyday life and hockey.  The only thing that kept me sane an...

Captains

Hey y'all! Hope the month of April has been very well as hockey season in youth hockey and junior hockey are coming to an end. After a very long season playing this sport, we rely on our coaches, older players on the team with playoff experience and most importantly, captains. I believe as much as coaches can change a locker room mentality, a captain can set the pace on the ice and is willing to be in the good and bad moments and help lead their team to succeed.  In the bible, there are many ‘captain’ figures leading others. Starting in the beginning of the bible with the story of Abraham. He led his people out of slavery and oppression with God’s guidance. Joseph Leads by his endurance of circumstances that came up against him, being sold to slavery by his brothers, being imprisoned to being the second man in command of the empire. Another is king David and his way to win battles and wars for God and his people. Jesus Christ, most importantly being a servant and a great leader...

Christian cup

  This week is the Christian cup, a camp for FCA Hockey I usually can’t make, but this year I got to play on the FCA Dragons. This team was filled with almost all of the Northstar and FCA Hockey front office which is know as the toughest office in the league. To start of the weekend we lost 9-7 but had a big comeback being down 6-1 at one point. Saturday morning we won 8-1 that bid us into the championship game Sunday morning. Then a great testimony from Bobby Robbins, a great man of God and a strong man. He shared his sinful past and his hockey past that is now glorified through Jesus Christ and now uses him testimony to spread the gospel to whoever he encounters. After that we played a mix-match game with a team and I became a Nordique! Then Sunday morning at 7am, we played the Knights again, the 1st team we lost to filled with u18 active Northstar Knights players. We won the final game 5-4.       The topic of the weekend is the 10 traits of a Godly Man...
