We have a guy that played in the IHL/CHL in the 70's and has yet to wear a helmet. He only plays drop-in, but the new guys always get hung up on the fact he's helmetless. The regulars get used to it, and in fact, it's sort of iconic/legendary.

Good question. We have a great group of regulars at this one drop-in game. We all are out there to have fun & get a good skate in. We had a new goalie one time, and I wasn't screening him, but I was off to the right for a tip-in chance. He two-hands me in the back and clears me out of the way. I gave it a chuckle, but the next time back I did screen him. Typically, we don't screen the goalie, but there is usually a guy off to the side for garbage.

I solved the problem by shelling out $35 for a bottle rack and six bottles. Now, I don't have to worry about complaining about someone drinking my water. There's always enough to go around. The guys that like their own bottles appreciate it because no one is bogarding their water. Plus, it guarantees me a roster spot. ;)
