The Not-So-Great One

Many of you know Rob Kane as a former standout three-sport athlete at QHS. He played football, basketball and baseball. After high school, he has branched out into more "leisure" sports such as golf, bowling, and softball. He also recently completed the lengthy construction of his mansion by the sea. But now that the dust has settled, the 34-year old father of two, who bartends at the Hoffy every other Wednesday and also plays in a softball league, has taken on a new project. He's going to take a crack at the one sport he didn't play in high school, no not volleyball, i'm talking hockey.

So, for the last few weeks he's been, ahhh, watching the Stanley Cup playoffs, and decided he was ready. Last night was his first game, and also his first legit attempt at skating. He showed up, suited up, and literally hit the ice.

Here he is in the locker room after the 1st period:



Here he is in the locker room after the 2nd period:



Here he is after an exhausting 3rd period:



And here he is, packing up after a hard day's night:



His line, 0 goals, 0 assists, 0 PIM, 0 +/-, 0 minutes on the ice.


From the looks of the pictures, it looks like the real sport is drinking BL's in a hockey outfit. Next game is tonight....hopefully he sees some ice time.
