Prospect Impressions: Mistele/Marner beckon the bears, Sparks makes history, QMJHL goals from Fontaine/Garland/Veleno Prospect Impressions is packed full of highlight-reel plays this week. Matt Mistele and Mitch Marner sent teddy bears flying with their goals, while Garret Sparks made history in his first NHL start. Three goals from the QMJHL highlight a great weekend of play in Quebec, plus goals from unexpected sources in minor hockey and Europe, including one perpetrator caught in the act of embellishment. With one month to go until the OHL trade deadline, the Sarnia Sting jumped into the fracus by acquiring Matt Mistele from the Oshawa Generals. One year removed from helping the Generals win both the OHL Championship and the CHL Memorial Cup, Mistele will add a veteran presence to the Sarnia lineup. Mistele has scored at a nearly point-per-game pace throughout his career, and has developed a reputation as a hard-working, trustworthy forward. In his first game at his new home in Sarnia, watch as Mistele "makes it rain" teddy bears.

I used to think that giving birth was overrated and believed that the emotional rollercoaster leading up the birth was insincere. In my opinion, giving birth had always seemed frightening, long and most of all painful. Surprisingly, my whole outlook on giving birth and its emotional impact changed when I gave birth to my first child, Joy. I remember the day as if it was yesterday, despite the fact that it took place almost nine years ago. It was a rainy Sunday in February when I invited my best…
