GOALIES - MEET PAUL

Age : 69 (in 2022)

Home Town : New Joisey

Number of Games Played :

     Ice hockey games played (includes league and also team scrimmage games at rentals) = over 1000, all as a goaltender, or goaler <----the old terminology

  Started in Winter of 1968, ice time in all of 1970s, 1980-1984, then 2007 to present...so that's across six decades.

     Total times played since the return on 26 Dec 2007  ---> 1,978 times total ...best year was 219 times in year 2019.

     Longest streak of days played = 8 days consecutive. 

     One of those days was also twice in one day, like the Hockey Camp (Henri Richard) regimen was for us as teenaged kids from Brooklyn, NYC.

     I've kept calendar summaries for each of the years since 2007, to track total times played.

     Hoping to break 2,000 times played within a month or two--only 22 more to go !

     Highlight: stopping 3-on-0 breakaways more than several times in recent years where the combined ages do not add up to my age.

How Long Will You Continue to Play : 

===>   Plans to continue with "the greatest sport" = indefinitely !! Considering ice hockey as a "Lifetime Sport"!
