Today’s SWAG features Cam Atkinson from the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Midway into Tuesday night’s game against the Detroit Red Wings while on a powerplay, Cam Atkinson decided to take the puck up himself and go coast to coast.
Atkinson ends up getting by the Wings defense and tying up the game at one-a-piece. A true A for effort like play but the Blue Jackets would end up falling 2-1 in regulation.
I grew up playing Ball and Roller Hockey day and night somewhat religiously throughout elementary and middle school. The two don't compare though when I lace up the skates and hit the ice. I live and breathe hockey beyond the perspective of "it's just a game" and I will gladly talk hockey for hours with anyone. Hockey is more than just a lifestyle, it's a culture of passionate people who make memories every time the puck is dropped. Hockey has not only helped me get through some of the hardest times in life but has created some of the best memories to date. Want to talk hockey with me?
