Sidney who?

No, Pak Bacsi, this is not an Alias reference. It is a reference to a hack who plays for a team in Pittsburgh in a sport I will someday dominate.

Living in Connecticut I don't get the full Mate experience of being half-Canadian. I was fortunate enough to get some hockey equipment from Keresztpapa and Martha Neni for Christmas. Not only is hockey the national winter sport of Canada, it is the most popular spectator sport in Finland*. If it is good enough for the Grand Duchy of Finland, it sure is good enough for me.


I had to ease myself into the whole hockey thing. I'm used to using a Swiffer and a football, not a hockey stick.

Then I moved on to a smaller ball.
