⊱ ─ Ducks vs Iceland Pt.2 ─ ⊰

"Did you all enjoy that?" Coach Bombay asked as he walked into the locker room. The team cheered in response to his question, Daisy smiled up at Charlie who was sitting next to her. "Okay. Well, so did they. They're still three points ahead and we're one period away from defeat," Bombay added making everyone sigh in defeat. "Well, if we can't beat them, we might as well keep our pride," Jesse pointed out, everyone agreed with the boy who smiled lightly. Bombay shook his head, "Jesse, that's not pride." Daisy smiled at Jesse before looking to Bombay as he looked around at his team, "Sure, when Dwayne roped that big oaf, part of me cheered." The team smiled over at the Austin boy who smiled widely.

Bombay let out a sigh, "But guys, I've been there. I know how you feel. I wanted to cream that jerk that busted my knee when I played in the Minors. And I really, really wanted to go after Stansson for that cheap shot." He paused for a moment as everyone paid full attention to him. "But my knee will heal. And if I become someone I'm not, if I sink to their level... Well, then I've lost more than my knee. Understand?" The team nodded as Bombay spoke. "We're not goons. We're not bullies. No matter what people say or do, we have to be ourselves!" Daisy was beyond proud of Gordon Bombay, he always proved himself in the end.
