Catching Up


Wow its been a couple weeks since my last blog update and so much has happened. Rather than write one huge post I'll break it down into several over the next couple days.

On my last post we were in snowy Detroit for a tournament with the North Stars. Well Frudoch did not have his best set of games. He ended the four game tournament with no goals one assist and 10 penalty minutes. For some reason the 2008 version returned and Fru got comfortable in the penalty box. 3 roughing and 2 boarding penalties in addition to having a go and exchanging a few punches AFTER a game had ended with probably 3 or 4 hits that could have been called. He was not alone in trying to knock everybody down as several of his teammates spent time in the box too. Overall they finished 1-3 with the win coming against Easton. The worst was yet to come.

A Familiar site: #10 in the box...

In one of his scrums Frudoch got into it with a kid and that kid found the ultimate way to get even. He put his skate blade across Frudoch's Easton Stealth S17 stick and broke it. Now this is not an ordinary stick. In fact it was a christmas present this year and a source of considerable pride. It also cost $200. Now I'm trying to figure out how to mark the occasion. I'll either mount the broken stick on the wall as-is or I'll take it to a trophy shop and have a piece of it mounted on a plaque. In any case here is the obligatory picture.
