They do get pretty rough! In my brother's last year of minor hockey, they made it to the provincial finals and he had to play the last few games with 2 cracked ribs. He wouldn't sit out so he just bandaged himself up really good under his equipment and got on the ice! There were quite a few cracked ribs, hurt shoulders, and broken collar bones back in those days.

lol and I USED to be a figure skater. I pretty much learned to skate simultaneously with learning to walk lol! My parents put me in figure skating when I was 4, and I took lessons until I was 16 and I got to the same level as my coach. It wasn't worth it to me to travel an hour for more lessons since I wouldn't be getting anywhere with it anyway, I was too old. I did teach figure skating for about 3 or 4 years as well while I was in high school.

Here I am ready for the game! GO CANADA GO!
