Jeff Peel is one of my better besties these days. Not your, "typical" hockey player. And by typical I mean he has a heart! ( I know right? Who woulda thunk...) Quite the jokester this guy is - a huge factor as to why I'm as good friends with him as I am. He played for the MJ team back in my hometown and that's how we met. I went to almost every road game these boys played in stein, portage, winnipeg, selkirk, and even d-town sometimes. But even though he's done his junior days he still plays a little intramural hockey at school every week! Here's a little about his MJHL hockey days.
