One of these days I will get around to learning how to take a decent action shot. We had 2 games today at Gilmour Academy in Cleveland, both sheets of ice there had excellent lighting but I always find myself trying to watch the action with one eye and the viewfinder with the other.
I would love to take better pics, but I can't NOT watch the game!
Other than blowing kids up on the blueline, this is where my son really gets under the skin of opponents. Occasionally he'll snow-shower the goalie but he doesn't do that often. The Ref's really don't put up with that. But more than once today in this game he was bearing down hard on the goalie and forced him to cover the puck. He swears he doesn't say anything and he doesn't really linger there after the whistle but boy do they love to start pushing and shoving when he does this.
His team had a great weekend, tied the Cleveland Warriors 98's 4-4, then beat them 7-0, beat the Cleveland Lumberjacks 4-0 and beat the Western Michigan Hounds 4-3.
Here he is in one of the only good shots I got off today:
