CGY Janser going to town

[Daniel Janser 1,981]

Callum was irate about the Americans' lacklustre start into the new season. As an alternate captain it would be his job to lead by example, but so far neither points nor checks are coming his way. The vent some of the pent up anger, he went to a dockyard, where a decommissioned destroyer was laid up to be scrapped. He has asked the foreman whether he can help dismantle the once proud ship. After signing a waiver, and putting on the legally required protection gear, the shift boss gave him a sledge hammer and told Janser that he can lay in in the galley and take apart the cupboards and other furniture. The Swiss defender started swinging the hammer furiously, but soon noticed that this was just tiring him out without much effect on the mostly mild steel appliances. So he started to seek for weak points and hit those with well placed but forceful strikes. Which enabled him to make faster progress. 'Huh, maybe there is a lesson to be learned from this.' he thought. He promised to himself to be more considerate on the ice and make deliberate plays and not to waste energy on 'gallery checks' as his dad called them. But preserve his strength when a check was really needed.
