I’m head over heels, and I’m all tangled up in something I can’t understand or control. This crush, this infatuation, is going nowhere fast. It’s a stratospherically terrible idea to want or crave him. Boy, howdy: meet my new co-captain, Shea Darling. Second: The first day I’m in Boulder, I go over the boards and come face-to-face with a pair of blue eyes and lose my heart. We are scrappy and plucky and built out of spit and duct-tape… and whatever we’re doing, it’s working. The Outlaws are made up of jaded veterans and wide-eyed rookies, and we have no business whatsoever succeeding. But these players have been through a mess of hell, and someone thinks I can help pull them together.
I’m a head-down, mind-my-business kind of guy. Then I’m traded to the absolute worst team in the NHL, the Rocky Mountain Outlaws, and I’m hit with a one-two punch.įirst: I’m asked to step up and lead the team, which is every kind of bad idea you can imagine. My heart is vulcanized rubber, puck hard, and that’s the way I like it. Relationships? Are you out of your mind? No.
