Life is a crazy thing, isn’t it?
Two days ago (as his ordeal was happening), there was a note waiting in his inbox. It was from the Canadian Olympic Committee – he’s been chosen to be one of Canada’s hosts at the 2010 winter Paralympics.
He’s currently learning to say hello in a bunch of languages so he can greet people. I teared up again. Ha.

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."

Annyong!
That is just awesome. Congrats to Jeff!
Congrats to my name sake!
I decided to stop posting here while drunk so it’s been a few days since I’ve posted… I hope Jeff has a speedy recovery, and he’s very lucky to have such a supportive family.
And Ms.Conduct, +20 cool guy points for the Arrested Development reference!
Just catching up. All the best to Jeff for a speedy recovery.
CONGRATS JEFF!!!!!
Decided to shoe horn some time in to get caught up on the blog (out of town last week – got to see the Pens lose to the Devils in Pgh – arg! Hopefully they will win against the Kings in LA on Thur when I see them live again – as a birthday treat to me!). Sooooo glad to hear that Jeff survived his ordeal and continues to thrive in all senses of the word. Geez, that was a tough one I’m sure. Take care Justin.
