Did you watch it?
The second episode of The Toughest Trade hit our screens last night and saw Wexford hurler Lee Chin try his hand at ice hockey with former Canadian ice hockey goaltender Alex Auld making the trip to Ireland to attempt hurling.
Chin travelled to Canada and spent a week with NHL side Vancouver Canucks while Auld settled in with Chin’s Faythe Harriers.
The Wexford star was given one of the toughest tasks so far as he had to try and master both the skills of the game with the added complication of learning to skate effectively.
He did everything but score!! In fairness them goals are a bit smaller than what he’s used to!! Great performance @LeeChin8! #TheToughest pic.twitter.com/VKc5938xem

It’s not something we’d like to attempt in just seven days before playing a competitive game, and people were impressed.
Although, it must be said, most people were in awe of the physical shape that Lee Chin is in. The man is an absolute specimen…

Well Done to Wexford hurler Lee Chin. Defiantly the hardest task so far in the Toughest Trade having to learn to skate #TheToughest
