blocker Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 A nine year-old in Mass. kept track of his goals. The other day, he scores what he figures is his 200th goal. He asks the ref for the puck. The official laughs, gives him the puck and gets a replacement. I dunno the true facts, because I wasn't there. But, the Sh!t then hit the fan. The kid has a twin on the same team. There are stories about the coach being furious and throwing a puck bag at the twin. The parents talked about appealing the coach's badge to USA Hockey. Both kids are kicked from the team. I don't think it's a good idea to keep track of goals. And, like I say, I don't know all the story. But, this is a classic case of adults making a mountain out of a molehill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digityman Posted February 16, 2012 Share Posted February 16, 2012 @blockerWhy can't the kid celebrate a milestone. That coach shouldn't be around children period let alone coaching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
