One of the joys of going to hockey games, from the not so pro leagues to the NHL is the time between periods is never dull. It's not pierogi races, but close enough.
Last night's game featured a five minute game between one of the younger age league games. I didn't catch the ages or the teams but it was fun to watch. All the elements of the game were there. Passing. Hitting. Scoring.
From my seat, I was directly across from one goal. Unfortunately taking photos of the other net didn't fare too well. The Plexiglas pretty much took out the angle.
But what I have is what I have here.
A pro-hockey sized goal is four feet tall. All you need to know here. I like this shot because you can see the eyes of the goalie looking this way.

Once the mini game was started, this guy, or gal, was all business. Most of the action was in the other end.

All you need to know about hockey checking is right here. Would be nice to see the puck somewhere. I was focused on the center action and didn't notice the check on the left. I like anything with feet off the ground (ice).

Here is the beginning of a superstar career. Trying to take the puck between two defenders. And he or she will learn and succeed.
