Wednesday morning I drove to Brandon for a morning skate. While I was there, there was a what I thought was a pickup game going on the other ice. I thought, “Wow, those guys are really good, and pretty big, for even ‘A’ leaguers.”

After they finished, a couple of guys kept skating. One of them took off their helmets and it was Vincent Lecavalier! The Lightning use the ice in Brandon for their training camps, and a lot of the guys are already in town skating. Vinny, Brad, Marty and Dan were on the ice by themselves. Pretty cool.
