"León flew uncontrolled toward the boards behind the net. His reflexes took over, and he put his left arm up to try to break the impact. As he hit the boards, a massive pain flashed through his arm. He fell to the ice hard and dropped his stick. León knew two things: His goal had sealed the victory, and he couldn’t move his hand." 
How can León help his team when he can't play? 
When Hockey Stops follows León, the league’s leading scorer, who is suddenly sidelined by an injury as his team heads toward the championship title. How will León deal with his time off the ice? How can he help his team win when he can’t skate? This story explores the many challenges of having your passion put on pause and reveals that mental fitness is just as important as physical fitness.
