Current Team: Nightfuries, 2019 White – Recreational
Hometown: Fitchburg
Pronouns: He/him/his
Other Teams: Current: Vet Sci @ Shell on Fridays, helping coach my kid's West Madison Polar Caps team.
Last played on a team in '93, and it was all about winning. Hated it, almost sold my equipment and gave up on the hockey experiment. Thankfully, returned to fun hockey.
Roles: MGHA Member
Recruiting

First put on skates as part of the UW Computer Science department's group in '90, have been a hockey guy ever since.

As the years went on skating became harder, so I put on the pads so falling down (my natural reaction to ice) looks like I'm making a play.

Have 3 kids, so there's the priority that can trump hockey, but we try to keep Sundays open for MGHA.

First year team = Redrum, referencing The Shining by Stephen King. Jersey = Cujo, not because I'm a rabid pupper, it's the nickname for former Badger goalie Curtis Joseph.
Addendum: second year, on the Nightfuries. Jersey = Hiccup, as I'm more the little nerd kid than a dragon.

Note to team captains: while I'm happy to skate out as a sub, if I'm playing goal in an adjacent slot, I'll need to miss a little bit of your game.
