But I didn’t want the refs involved.
I wanted to fight.
Collins slowly got to his skates.
“Come on,” I called to him. “Don’t be a pussy.”
“Fuck you, Atlas,” Collins said.
He skated toward the bench.
The guy who cross-checked me from behind - Hein - was sent to the penalty box for two minutes.
I nodded to him. “You’re next.”
“I’ll fucking kill you,” he yelled to me.
Now I had something to look forward to.
The game got back to the action.
We were on a power play.
A chance to get some of the goals back that had been given up way too quickly in the game.
Facing a two-nothing deficit.
Boston cleared the puck down the ice in seconds.
Jago made an easy stop and passed it to me.
I took the puck up on my own, letting Henry and Rome get set up.
Sebastian lingered behind the opposing net, waiting for a chance to make a move.
I had a clear path to Henry.
But I looked right at Sebastian.
I flicked my wrist and sent the puck to the boards.
Sebastian grabbed the puck and spun around, taking a shot.
Boston’s goalie was too damn smart though.
He kicked his left foot out at the last second and made the save.
“Rome!” I bellowed as I saw the puck rebound, waiting for a shot.
Rome should have been there.
The played died as fast as it started.
The power play came and went.
Hein came out of the penalty box and dropped his gloves and stick to the ice.
He was ready for me.
