A Lil Bit of Sporting Excitement...

Well, now. I’ve seen a few hockey fights in my time but this one takes the proverbial gâteau…

I’ve never seen an official hit like that before, and I’ve rarely seen players deliberately ignore an official to the extent the Remparts goalie does in his eventual and successful attempt to beat the snot out of the opposing goalie. But this ain’t the NHL…it’s Junior Hockey. Speaking of which…that’s the Quebec Remparts in red and the Chicoutimi Sagueneens in white; the game was played this past Saturday (March 22). Both teams play in one of Canada’s Junior Leagues. Hockey legend Guy LaFleur played for the Remparts, and the equally-legendary Guy Carbonneau played for Chicoutimi once upon a time. Oh. One other thing. You may have heard of Patrick Roy. He coaches the Remparts.

And some people say hockey is boring. Some people wouldn’t know their nether regions from their elbow, too. YM (most certainly) MV, Gentle Reader.

Speaking of hockey… I’ve been remiss of late by not mentioning the Beloved Red Wings have posted their eighth consecutive 100-point season and most probably will win their fourth President’s Trophy in the 00’s.
