My name is Connor Tedstrom. I played high school hockey in Colorado for 4 years, and during my senior year, I decided I wanted to pursue playing junior hockey and Division I college hockey. This is the story of going from Colorado High School Hockey to junior hockey from my perspective: my thoughts, experiences, and lessons learned along the way.

Things Might Get Hairy
So I've been getting a lot of crap lately about my hair. It might be well deserved. It's getting long. And it gets a little messy too, especially when it's windy outside, or when I don't have a comb, which is never. My coach told me the other day that it might be the worst haircut he's seen in a long time. But why cut it now? These hairs have been with me since the beginning of the season, and playoffs are coming up. They've been with me in Bismarck, New Mexico, Boise, and everywhere in between. It's a symbol; a symbol of the season I've had. It's all over the place, but always in control, just like me this season. And I'm not gonna lie: I like it no matter how many people don't like it. Some might argue that I should cut it because my head resembles a mop, but it's growing on me...in more ways than one ;-) So I think I'll keep it around. And a positive about having this long hair is that I will have a great playoff mullet when the time comes. My dad might kill me when he reads this (Wait a minute, I'm 6'4", 220. Who am I kidding?) but, hey, I might as well grow it while I still can.

I'm just having a little fun here, at the expense of myself and my dad. I think he can handle it, though. I'm tired of writing so seriously all the time...
ReplyDeleteI love it. Whatever it takes. You can always put it in a rubber band. Or you can do braids or even pigtails!
