Justin Wins the World Cup

By: Justin M.

My name is Justin Marks and I played forward for the Tampa Bay Lightning in 1965. In this season I kept putting the puck in the net for my team. We were at the top of our league at the end of the season and I was the top scorer. One game I scored six goals.

In the World Cup final I shot the puck so hard I broke my stick, the goalie’s stick, the net and the boards. The puck went through the boards into the control room and broke the control panel, and then it hit the control room person in the bottom and bounced back onto the ice. I got the puck again and shot it with the best stick in the league. It went through the goalie’s pads and I scored the winning goal of the World Cup. The goalie I scored against was Mika Kippersoff!
