I saw a ice hockey game for the first time. (we had forgotten to bring warm sweaters. Big mistake. -ice- hockey)

The goalies have huge protections on their shins and feet (and on the inside face of their knees, because it seems their base guard move is to let themselves fall on their knees, the shins in a mirror, like an upside-down 'T').

those don't have their gloves on either

"is it a particularly significant game? Like, is it the first game of the season, or something?" "no."
