LM broke his collarbone tonight... Just out of X-ray, ortho-doc hasn't looked at the pictures yet, but I'm crossing my fingers that his entire Sr. year of hockey isn't shot. Assume 8 weeks would get him back for playoffs...12, he's done. Tough news...

Horrible news. I'll pray for a speedy recovery!

Prayers sent. Thats horrible. I live in fear of an injury especially with how much we all pay forthis

Ahbroody · 11-12-2013, 08:06 PM

Double post sorry.

E.J. · 11-13-2013, 08:21 AM

Thanks Scott & Mike. Seeing the orthopedist as I type....

E.J. · 11-13-2013, 11:30 AM

EXCELLENT news at the orthopedist today. No surgery and feels like he'll be good to go in 6 weeks. Assuming he heals like expected, 4% chance of re-fracture at 6 weeks. If I was hearing correctly, that 4% does not change from 6 weeks to 4 months. Goes back in 5 weeks to get cleared for the 6 week contact.

Can get back on the ice(no contact) next week, maybe 2, depending on how he is feeling.

Found this article on Facebook about a Dad watching his son's last hockey game.

Great read....and has me wanting to start driving to games with the LM for his last bit.... UGH....

Sooooo...love this sport/community/life....can't believe that 50% will be done in a few months....

E.J. · 12-09-2013, 02:58 PM

Both the U10 boys and U12 girls had wins this weekend.....

GOAL!!!!

Still waiting for the LM to heal up.... Crossing my fingers that he's cleared/healthy at the end of the month.

This year has been a mix of awesome and crap. On the ice an average of 5 days a week.

His in house squirt coach is a tool bag who is constantly giving his kid more ice. His kids got to be -16 on the year. Second year squirt and the kids horrible. I think someone complained to the league as he sent out an email saying he would do a better job making sure everyone would get equal ice. M is leading his squirt inhouse team in scoring. Not bad for a second year mite playing against almost all second year squirts.

His travel mite coach continues to miss occasional games leaving one of the dad's to coach. M plays primarily D on his mite team. As a whole i am happy with his development of grasping gap control and stick and body position.

E.J. · 12-30-2013, 05:55 PM

Coaching is so critical, Mike.... Can make a night and day difference in development and how much fun the kids have. Not to mention the frustration level of the parents.

E.J. · 01-06-2014, 04:59 PM

LM Back on the ice...FINALLY!!!! 8 weeks....a long 8 weeks.

The Little One continues to crush with her U14 girls team, but just blends with the U10 Boys. Couple pics w/ the girls team this past weekend, where she had a hattie.

My kids team played a couple outdoor games this weekend in Toledo. Thankfully the team decided to purchase the pics that were taken, cause these next few really encompasse the way my kid plays, I couldn't be happier with the pics, or the way he played

E.J. · 01-07-2014, 03:52 PM

Awesome sequence, Scott....

Outdoor games.....COLD.... Is that a warming tent I see?

Those tents were the locker rooms, they were heated. There is a building there as well with snack bar, seating etc etc but bleachers outside the building made it impossible to watch the games from inside.

Here are some more from that day. The first one is after another big hit, the photographer missed the actual hit though

This one cracks me up. The ref's reaction is funny, and the puck is way up in the air, not sure what was going on here:

And a couple from the game earlier in the day:

E.J. · 01-07-2014, 07:07 PM

Really great stuff there!

Ahbroody · 01-16-2014, 09:17 PM

Awesome photos Scott. Kid wants to play out doors. All the outdoor stuff has been having him say he wishes he could play it outside.

We got sucked back in to play roller this weekend. His old inline team is trying to win the NARCH West Coast Winter National event. He plays ice with like half the kids on the inline team. They can't beat the team coming from SoCal without him so he is going to play for free in the hopes of winning the tournament. The kid who doesn't like playing roller is being brought in to try to win a tournament.

^^^ Nice, Mike....
