Fire Quote by T. J. Oshie

“It's something I work on every once in a while. I'll skate around the neutral zone and have one of our assistants fire pucks into my skates and I'll figure out a way to handle them. I think it's a good skill to have, and something you don't think about that you should work on.” quote by T. J. Oshie
