We're six days into August.  In other words, we're six days closer to the hockey season starting up again.

At this point, we just want training camp to start because players being back on the ice and skating with their teammates again is enough to get us through September to when the regular season starts.

Until then, though, we need some creative ways to pass the time and if you love hockey as much as Steelheads' goalie Joe Ranger, what he's doing to pass the time until September might be what you end up doing, too.

Anyone else waiting for camp like Ranger?  If so, be sure to have something to drink close by because with this heat and full equipment on, we imagine it would get real hot, real quick.

September will come faster than we all think and before you know it, Joe (along with hockey players everywhere) will be back on the ice getting ready for the upcoming season.
