Hat Trick, In Goal

Elliot finally got his chance to play goalie in their hockey game today. I knew from the moment he got all the pads on that it was not going to be as easy or fun as he had expected. It didn't help that the team's goalie equipment was at least two sizes too big for Elliot. But, he enjoyed it, despite the difficulty. In fact, he was not discouraged at all. He had a smile on his face throughout the entire game. He even asked if he could play goalie again. He let in about 6 goals, but also had that many saves. I think I may be investing in some goalie equipment soon. Jack played forward, scored the first goal of the game (about 30 seconds into it,) and then went on to score two more. This picture shows Jack taking a shot on Elliot during the pre-game warm up.
