Yep but the break aways could be killers. You break loose in Dryden, and wind up south of Dinorwic before you got stopped!

In the 12 years I've lived in Canada , the only time I see people skate outdoors has been during Winterlude on the Rideau.

My two sons grew up playing pond hockey with kids on a Reserve, often in the moonlight. Later, when my younger son was playing HS football in the States a kid got hurt enough to cry and the coach decided that their practice was too rough. When my son got home that night he told us about it over supper and concluded, "Rough?!!? Football isn't rough. Pond hockey on the Rez is rough!"
