  7. Playing hockey is expensive. Playing ice hockey, is expensive. Playing ice hockey, while trying to be a goalie, a bit more so. So for young Aleksandrov, at age 16, becoming a goalie and stealing games like some of the greats would only be accomplishable in a procrastinistic passing thought or a rare lucid dream. He'd settle for playing goalie with some soccer shin pads and a regular sherwood wooden stick. Penza is one of the poorest cities in the entire country of Russia, and the Aleksandrov household most definitely couldn't afford to pay for the goalie equipment AA would need to start playing, as that money would have to go towards school, food, rent, bills, and other services. It just wasn't possible. That was, until, Aleksandrov happened to meet his gym teacher in high school. A former goalie himself, and a Penza native; Maxim Pjotr. Pjotr, fortunately enough, also coached the High School hockey team, and saw potential in Aleksandrov through gym class. Aleksandrov, for the first time, had actual goalie equipment supplied by the school. Sure, it was dingy, smelly, and probably older than Aleksandrov himself, but it was better than the ragtag kit he'd use on the streets. Penza never really won any championships, but Aleksandrov would continue to use team from team as actual stepping stone to advance into various junior leagues. Bouncing from city to city, making ends meet, after scrounging enough money to buy his own equipment, Aleksandrov found himself playing for junior Swedish leagues. Pjotr helped Aleksandrov correct his form, skating, and stick handling, which tended to stick out considering he got into the sport so late. Even now, these problems plague his game, but nonetheless, the Russian duo work on ironing out these issues. It wasn't a tough journey up to this point, and it wasn't any easier to say goodbye to friends and teammates again and again, and it certainly took a toll on Aleks. Things seemed to always seem bleak, as if this whole adventure might just turn out to be a huge waste of time. That he'd have to return back home, work a normal 9 to 5, and waste his days away only wondering what "could've been" if he was just a little bit faster, or a little bit better. Through another stroke of luck, the Mississauga Hounds goaltender at the time went through a shock retirement. The Hounds set up an open try out for their next goaltender, and after weeks of practice against a multitude of goalies from across the globe, Aleksandrov struck out with a contract with the Hounds. Now, he finds himself between the pipes as a starter for the team, one the youngest in the league.
