I quit playing hockey the year before Pee Wee when I moved away from Calgary (because I didn't now anybody playing in Lethbridge... which is lame because I didn't know anybody playing in Calgary when I first started playing).

So I never learned to hit. I try hard to avoid people now because I'm one of the bigger guys out there and I'm afraid that I'll hurt somebody if we collide. Perhaps if I kept playing and I learned how to hit I wouldn't worry about hurting people? Who knows. All I know is that, based on the odds that automaton and troutman are sharing, I still would have made the NHL if I kept playing.
