I had a goal and an assist tonight during my adult league hockey game! First of each for the summer league! I’m so ecstatic! See if I love hockey and think I can play hockey, I can play hockey! ;)

Fifteen years from now you’re going to look back on this. With a sigh, you’re going to ask yourself, “Why?” Fifteen years from now you’ll find yourself sitting in that same darkness you’ve always feared. But this time you’ll be quietly watching as your daughter’s chest rises and falls as she sleeps. You’ll smile and think to yourself, “My god, I almost missed this.”

Mr Hockey Gordie Howe dies at age 88.

Gordie Howe, recognized as the greatest NHL player who ever lived, died Friday June 10th, the Red Wings announced.

Forever known as Mr Hockey, Gordie set a number of records that many fans worldwide had considered to be untouchable. Tough in many aspects of his career, Gordie was a player not to cross and not to take lightly.

Playing a grand total of 26 NHL seasons, 25 seasons with the Detroit Red Wings and a brief season with the Hartford Whalers, and a 6 season stint in the WHA.

Gordie’s list of achievements:

Playing until the age of 52, Gordie scored 801 goals and 1,850 points in 1,767 regular-season games.

A 23 time NHL All-Star.

Four time Stanley Cup Champion: 1950, 1952, 1954 and 1955

He was the League’s top scorer in four straight seasons, from 1951-54, and again in 1956-57 and 1962-63.

Winning the Art Ross Trophy and Hart Trophy six times.

Pioneered his own hockey stable, the Gordie Howe Hat Trick.
