When I walked into the locker room I was astonished at how tall everyone was without skates. The other draftees were and I felt welcomed by the rest of the team. The room smelled of rich mahogany which must have been an air freshener because the benches were made of steel. We went around the room and introduced ourselves and told of where we are from who our idol hockey player is and our favorite pregame ritual. My favorite pregame ritual was from McLovin who said he goes to Burger King before every game and orders two classic chicken sandwiches with mayo and lettuce. He said it pumps him up and gives him the strength he needs to skate around. When he was asked why Burger King and not McDonald’s, McLovin exclaimed “I’m loving it!” We also played a two truths and one lie ice breaker. One draftee, Earl Biggins, didn’t understand the instructions of recalling the group two truths about your life and then one lie about your life and then the group had to guess what the lie is. His answers were “I like small puppies, I like big puppies and I like all puppies.” After our ice breaker coach came out and discussed plans for practice.
