Hockey snapshot No. 5


After breaking an ankle Sunday in a tournament game, these crutches had been a near-constant companion of Colin since leaving the hospital's emergency room.

This morning, however, he felt confident enough that he wouldn't need them to get around at school, relying solely on his walking boot.

 Last night, he even spent a few minutes taking shots out back in the hockey lab.

Though it'll be a month or so before the cast comes off, he has told me many times that he won't let this setback keep him from playing hockey.

"Are you nuts?" he asked me after telling him if would be OK if he didn't want to play hockey again.
