Nice! Glad it worked out. The coach on his club team had to give everyone a nickname. That would have been even stranger for you I would think. We were even provided with a laminated card with all nicknames and info. At first it was fun now its lame and most of us just use their names. Micah is Thor because of hair and style of play. He wanted Pikachu, but coach wouldnt allow it.

Micah was boarded for the first time on Saturday in inhouse by a rather dusty kid. He was repeatedly victimizing the kid taking the puck, deeking him and making him fall and occasionaly yard sale his stick. He went to the board to get the puck amd this just decides to skate up and hit him from behind. He was close to the boards so he wasnt hurt. He was clearly pissed. He turns around and punches the kid in the facemask and pushes him. I guess being 8 and having a 6 year old keep beating you gets a kid mad.

None of this was that bad. I am largely a believer that kids need to police themselves on most types of hits. what concearned me was what the kids father did after the hit. He was at the wall where it happened and I dont know if he told his son to do it. What I noticed was when it happened his dad cheered loudly. When the shift ended his dad went near where his kid was got his attention and gave him a fist pump and cheered him. That was my WTF moment and I decided I would make him miserable and troll him hard. I grabbed another parent and moved over near where he was. We make little comments everytime he tries to trip or kid or gets his pocket picked. Towards the end of the game the kid gets pissed after the boy steals the puck from him again and the kid decides to get his stick blade in Micahs facemask and push at him. I go for the knockout shot at this point. I look at buddy and say wow has this kid ever played hockey before? He boards, he trips, he highsticks. Id be so proud. I made eye contact with the kids dad and smiled. Guy had nothing to say now. I probably shouldnt have, but I got so pissed that a parent would cheer and encourage his kid to run someone. It happens, but you dont encourage it.
