Ever been body checked by a Cadillac?

Ever been body checked by a Cadillac?

Nope, but thats what it felt like! Played the next period and once I took a slapshot I was like uh oh, something is seriously wrong. To the hospital we went to find that I had played one period with a broken collar bone. Might as well have been a Cadillac..........

Wow I did not see that coming! What an upset!

That is what happens when you stop forechecking and skating and try to sit on a lead (kinda like footballs prevent defense which usually prevents you from winning).  First two periods Russia had trouble coming out of their own end because they were getting knocked on their butts, and Canada was winning the races to the puck and battles for loose pucks, where was that in the third?
