Alright, so this is for all of the hockey friends on my friends list. I have a writing assignment for one of my classes and I have to "Write a short essay in which you describe a moment--a maneuver, a play, a technique--that captures the essence of your sport

The celebration after a goal is scored. Not sure that counts, though. Does it count? Because I think that's one of the best moments in hockey.

Also? Lifting The Cup up over your head.

Or, if neither of those are okay, then what about a breakaway? Maybe switch it up and make it from the goalie's point of view? The rush of adrenaline that comes when someone is coming right at you and you have no help. It's just you and the other player.

Lalala. Any of those help?

As a player, it's always been the very beginning of a game. I always try to be the first one on the ice and it's this fresh pure sheet and the way the skates cut through it. The silent rink and the crunch of your edges that echoes.

That was one of the ones that I thought of actually. I thought it would be a little hard for me to express it in such a way that people would understand though. I think I'm just gonna go with the flow on it.. write what comes to my mind. =]

Thanks for your input!
