I was an avid hockey player most of my life.....defenseman.
Learned on the ponds and bogs and later the rink on a mens league. Right now ice conditions on ponds and bogs is perfect for skating....have not seen a single youth or group of kids on any of them. We have the softest generation of kids the world has ever seen......they have iphones and computers but no ice skates. I miss the days where large groups would be out there with three different games going on. Guys who couldnt skate well played goalie and with ferocious intensity. Goal was two boots set a variable and changing distance apart and shots had to be on the ice. Spent all day sometimes.
