I've always wanted to play." ~~Elvis Stojko~~ Within the last year Elvis has added hockey to his cross-training regimen. He usually plays hockey two nights a week with varsity players from Neumann College and often arrives at the rink early so he can shoot 200-300 pucks at the net before figure skating practice.

A couple of the guys asked if I could do a quad in hockey skates. I told them it wasn't possible. |

It's a great release. I'm really loving it. That's been a good thing for me to be able to get out on the ice and shoot some pucks around.
I'm still on the ice and having fun with the guys. |

In figure skating you train in your own little world. In hockey you get to hang with the guys. It's fast, it's aggressive. It's the team thing. |
