Theo played junior in Swift Current for Graham James. 'Nuff said. Sheldon Kennedy came forward and sent that evil b$%#@rd to jail. Some of the other boys didn't.
He also had a meltdown playing for Belfast if I recall. Those demons are going to haunt him all his life. What a shame.

By road hockey do you mean on roller blades? We played a bit of that in college in Evanston but nothing serious, it was more just skating with a stic and passing the "puck"... We did floor hockey in gym as well.. That was a lot of fun, one of the favorite winter time/rainy day activities..

We always enjoyed playing random sports growing up so we actually did play Rugby a bunch of times (I am sure we were not following the rules Laughing

) and even had some kids bring in cricket and lacross stuff to school. If nothing else it was always fun to try different sports than the usual and most of the times we did it we had to adapt the rules to fit how many folks we had there to play.

You play roadhockey on a road wearing skidoo boots or whatever lol. Watch 'Wayne's World'-CARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!! lol. In Canada you play hockey everywhere you can smack a puck or ball around with a stick. Floor Hockey against the teachers in Grade 12 got pretty intense-nothing liking laying a legit smack on authority.

Sure... Waynes World... From his basement in Aurora illinois None of movie filmed there as far as I can tell, Aurora was about 15-20 minutes from where I grew up).. Our high school sport against the teachers was basketball... And the darn teachers cheated like no get out but still would loose.

We did the car thing with stickball and stuff like that.. Even some football at friends who didn't have a big enough yard..
