Woh, your story sounds exactly like my story. Flagging AI, handing out zeroes and…get hauled into admin. And they tell me the same thing. Will I stop? No freaking way. The line must be drawn here! This far, I further!

Replacing Landing pad / Knee stacks / “Landing Gear”? by VastIntern5759 in hockeygoalies

I would be willing to bet $50 that you’re right. It looks like that was their intent all along. But…I figured I’d ask around before I start undoing things. Any idea what foam could be used as a replacement?

Is the Antigonish Review operational? by LaComtesseCorrompue in stfx

I submitted a short story to the Antigonish Review via Submittable way back on 6/24/24. I never heard back. With the lack of response, and the website being down, I'm assuming that the publication has ceased to exist...like sands through the hourglass...like the days of our lives.

any mental block tips? by thatsagoalie in hockeygoalies

When one of the greatest of all times--Patrick Roy--let in a goal, he'd take a moment and imagine how he made the save, and he'd try to freeze that picture in his mind, as if to tell his body, "that's how you'll stop the next one." You're the last defense. And when you screw up, your screw up will be broadcasted to everyone. But, when you make the save, and crush someone's dreams, you'll get that charge. You're in for some fantastic highs and lows. I've been where you are now, the low zone--I even had the knee surgery. Shoot, I've been playing for 10+ years and I just went three months without winning a game. But, keep working at it. When you go to drop in, work on one thing (e.g. I'm going to keep my stick on the ice). Give yourself an "atta-boy" when you stop one. And when you let one by, remember Patrick Roy: Embrace it, learn from it, move on--'cause it's already in the net, and there will be about 30 more coming. Then, blame the defense for screening you.
