hockey goalie quotes – All That

All That Counts

All That Counts is a novel about life and a man’s discovery about what is truly important in it.

Graham Wilson is a thirty-something recreational hockey player who decides to follow a long-held desire to become a goaltender. His transition is both comedic and inspiring as he seeks to challenge himself in the midst of a mundane life. Also on display is the curious paradox of the recreational game in American culture (i.e., it means everything, but it is only a game, but it is more than a game, but…). When his team’s regular goalie leaves, Graham steps unsteadily into the crease, causing conflict on a team that is used to winning.

Graham’s journey is a microcosm of life. Humor, inspiration, camaraderie, love and spite all make their appearances both on and off the ice as Graham struggles to learn what truly is “all that counts.”

Loverboy

It’s one thing to fall in love. It’s another when you drag your team and everyone else you know into it with you. We decided it was time to get even with our goalie, Peter Dudek, for his constant "but I’m in love" quotes in person and on his Facebook page. We’re serious. Even Care Bears were starting to get nauseous from the "but I love YOU more" entries.

One of our trainers decided that a good way to get back at him would be to substitute in a new name bar for him. The problem was how to get it onto his jersey without getting caught. It finally came down to the last game of the playoffs and we decided we had to fake a “clothing malfunction”. Just before he was going out to skate for the warm up, we got the name bar on his jersey and sent him out, with a lot of glares and shushing to the other players. For 20 minutes, Loverboy was wearing #1.
