BERLIN — Berlin's own Ron Couture is the final "Goalie Challenge" at this point in time, and his story is as the other ones were, reflective, interesting and nostalgic for sure.

Ron grew up on the East Side of Berlin, and as a small fry wanted to play with the big boys, guys like Curly Morin, the Albert boys, Cuba and Guido and many others.
