Scrimmage v Crow River, Part 3

Now, when it comes to the spirit of youth hockey at the squirt level, let's make a distinction between going for the puck and going for the body slam into the boards. This sequence involves Henri, who always goes for the puck. He may leave some carnage in his wake, but that's fine. I like his style.

Henri's eyes are on the puck, and it may be that the opponent's are, too...

...But Henri pinches his arm against the boards...

...and then gets in his way completely...

He does all that while never taking his attention away from the rubber disk. Way to give those defensemen a hard time, Henri.

Some of our own defensive players are effective even if they don't always have to fight on the boards. Here's Max K. getting the puck out of our zone.
