Getting your player ready...
When the U.S. women’s hockey team got together to exchange Christmas gifts, the coaches had a little surprise: They were adding one more practice to the Boston leg of the trip. “It was definitely the best Christmas present of the year,” goalie Molly Schaus said Monday on the ice at Fenway Park. “Just walking out of that dugout . . . I never want to leave.” The NHL turned Fenway into a hockey rink for the Winter Classic, and the rink has rarely been silent since. It has been used for public skating, for an NHL legends game and for high school teams willing to pay the reported $10,000 hourly fee. The Associated Press; AP photo
