life you never know what is going to happen. This may be true‚ but when reality kicks in do you really want it to be the truth?

No one even considered putting on a goalie mask at the time because play moved at a slower pace due to equipment technology and shots were lower because sticks were more basic did not yet have curved blades. With flatter blades of the stick‚ shots were not as high off the ice and since no one was used to practicing on a goalie with a mask‚ they played like they practiced. It wasn’t until 1930 when we saw the first step in the evolution of
