My First Goal in Hockey

        It was my second lesson of learn to play and I was a little nervous. I never thought I would play hockey but they moved me up from learn to skate to learn to play 5 weeks early.

        “Ok, today we will work on skating, stick handle and learn a couple of new things,” our coach said.

         We also skated around, had to try to dangle the coaches, then we did a scrimmage. Blue vs Red. I was red. The coaches were goalies. I played right wing just like my favorite player Patrick Kane. We won the faceoff. In the first minute, a kid on my team scored the first goal putting us in the lead 1-0. It stayed 1-0 for almost the entire game. Toward the end of the game a kid on the other team was about to score the tying goal but I stole the puck didn’t pass it to anyone, went to the right then to the left. I skated  past everyone. The defense was coming with five seconds left and I shot the puck. It went in the net as the final buzzer hit.

      “What a goal!” our coach yelled.
