Every three or four games I forget this bit of rink 'housekeeping'. The O-Dog usually skates off the ice, and I rush him to the john to undo the cumbersome equipment and let him take his leak. There was no such respite to be had today.
Short of leaving the goal crease empty, there was not much we could do.
Though it looks like he's giving the "icing" signal, he's actually trying to get his coach's attention. Unfortunately, he'd have to wait. I managed to capture the conversation between the O-Dog and his coach.
Needless to say, he solved his problem on his own before the end of the game, as the coach skates with him to center ice to shake hands with the other team:"Well, at least he doesn't have to go anymore."
... and he won, 6-5.

Poor kid. But it sounds like he played great! I'm sure all the hockey greats wet themselves at one time or another.
How damn cute is that, I don't care if you're proud, I'm proud enough for both of us. Wish I had a little goal keeper. Thanks for stopping by and giving me you digs on the first amen. By the by, your hos don't look so good tonite. I just got called home from a friends house as a result. Seems my better half thinks I have to be where I was during the first game in order for them to win. God I do love this game called hockey. Tell little prego to quite the juice and just go before he picks up his stick, he'll get in the habit.Toodles, Maryanne
Oh how cute.
A cute story--I hope he's not carrying a scar forever--neat pictures and on being a goalie, wow
poor widdly bugger ;)
You are totally going to tell this story to his first girlfriend.
I thought all hockey players relieved themselves that way. Seems to me he's destined for greatness. Greatness!
