8 Gary MacPhail remembers playing for the Argyle Shore Beavers hockey team. He said that he made it on the ice once! A big rough guy from Albany checked him into the boards and he was right back into the box. He never stepped on the ice again! There were all different age groups on the team, big guys and little guys. Ewen MacPhail played in nets and Gary recalls having only one shin pad. They had the team for a couple ofyears. One year they won!
