Backhand Shelf
Hey, remember the post I wrote before this one? No? Me either, it was forever ago.
Long story short: I’m the web editor for theScore’s new hockey blog, “Backhand Shelf,” where I’ll be posting 20 (literally) times a week. So please, check it out!


I'm a hockey player turned writer. After playing for Alaska Anchorage in the WCHA (NCAA), I carried on with an NHL tryout (New York Islanders in 2007) before spending a couple seasons in the AHL/ECHL (last year was 2008-09). My father, Bob Bourne, won four Stanley Cups with the Islanders in the '80's, as did my fiancee's dad, Clark Gillies. I'm now the web editor for theScore's hockey blog "Backhand Shelf."
