Brothers from different mothers.

Okay.

You have only two options.

Enterthe ice, have fun and lose.

Or be strong, break some

bones and give yourself a chance.

There are two types of hockey.

Hockey that you play on the street.

And real hockey.

Watched by entire Canada.

The ice on which it's played,

it's softerthan Rajveer's cheeks.

I don't know whether all

of you can play or not.

But I know how to find out.

Isn't he the ice cleaner?
