Mike Akerman, of Perrysburg, taps the goal post with the puck to score while he played a pickup hockey game with three friends on a pond in the backyard of friend Alex Ostafi's Perrysburg Township home. The four, who had already been out for an hour, said they often played hockey together. "Pretty much whenever it's cold enough, you'll see us out here," Akerman said.
