Ice Hockey - Forever Lacing Up Skates

Was on an ice hockey team again and was taking forever to get my skates on and laced up. I was on the bench getting ready and just taking forever, talking to the coach the whole time who was a little pissed it was taking this long but said he was still going to play me. The skates were a little too small too and my toes were scrunched up but still useable. One skate had black wax laces that were so stiff from use and the other skate had red elastic laces that made for so much extra lace I had to wrap around the skates a bunch. 2nd period ended and I finally got laced up. Will McPhaden just got there too after some field trip he was on so we both went in. He was playing goalie for some reason now though. Skating felt good tho and I was ready to play! Puck dropped, woke up ha.
