Jim K’s flip’n puck and more hockey stories
now is there anyone out there that played hockey with Jim that doesnt remember how he flipped the puck from the blue line? i have to ask jim, was that because you didnt like slapshots??? or who remembers matts infamous slipping puck between that legs, i wont write much about that here, but i would email anyone that asks….(sorry matt, too funny)… or who remembers quarts of beer in the senior lavs after hockey games. i think i need to thank marty torrey for that….smilin. or george boisse in goal, dominating…. or little tommy (?)o’neill flying thru the crowds with the puck…. i liked protecting him.maybe i wanted to be like Paul Kiley. kickass…lol …. or that one guy from Claverack that was soo good, we were all out to get him. (didnt he become pro??) ….. and i remember mike perry givin me hell for not gettin him the puck… sorry mike….and who could forget Chris Diaz making the team….way to go Chris….how about Icy Hot Linament in the old jockstrap trick (i think that worked for all sports- seems to me i remember kevin horan getting that in soccer too)……and of course, Fr. Krahs’ famous speech ( God rest his soul) about “they put their pants on the same way we do, one leg at a time.” no one ever told poor Leo that that didnt matter, they can play hockey better than we do…..smilin ( i think he used that speech for all the sports didnt he ???)
