"Hello out there! We're on the air! It's hockey night tonight!" - Stompin' Tom Connors.For some, winter means bundling up, locking the door, and hiding under weighted blankets 'til Spring. For others it means lacing up skates, taping up an old stick, and heading to the nearest patch of ice for a bit of shinny!
