this story carved a hole in my chest. no I am not okay. yes this story is 5 stars. I don’t even like hockey!! i’ve thought about hockey throughout my life max four times. but this story will stick with me forever. this needs to be required reading for all high schoolers and men in sports. write it into law. i’m demanding it!!
