Chapter 15: The Coach

The coach's office at the Brennick Ice Arena smelled of old coffee and liniment.

It had one window, a wall of team photographs, and a steel desk with a phone on it.

The phone was playing a video.

Ansel stood at the door and watched Torin's forearm press into Dane's chest, again and again, on a loop.

Torin sat in the only chair with his stitched hand in his lap and his eyes on the floor.

The coach was a heavy man in his sixties with a grey mustache, and he did not look angry.

He looked tired.

"Whitlow sent me this at six this morning," the coach said.

"He sent it to the athletic director at six oh two."

He stopped the video.

"Schuler, you are suspended from the next two games.

"Wednesday in Duluth and Friday in Mankato.

"You can practice, and you can sit on the bench in a suit."
