CREATIVE PROMPT: Of course when we create a drill to have fun at the end of our practice, we always have to add a competitive aspect to the game and put some kind of wager. To set up the drill, we put one of those goalie plank with holes in the four corners and one in the middle in net. We shoot the puck from the middle of the ice, on the faceoff dot. The first one to get five pucks in the five different holes in a specific order would be the winner of the round. The order would be determined by the two players taking part before the round. Then we set up a bracket with opponents being drawn based on our numbers. Like I said, we couldn’t keep ourselves from making some kind of bet on this game. Since we had a team dinner that night, the bet was that you would have to pay for the meal of the teammates that beat you, which meant in the end, only the winner would not have to pay for his meal, and the guys going out in the first round would have to pay for their own meal and one of their teammates.
