For anyone who's ever performed an epic public fail then tried to play it off all cool like nothing happened: This is for you. In other words: This for all of us.
Mitchell Skiba is a junior hockey player for the Alpena Flyers in Alpena, Michigan.

The hockey gods giveth, and the hockey gods taketh. Glad ol' Mitchell lived to tell the tale.
