Original Toronto Star caption: Take out the shovel; it's Hockey time; When the snow's too deep to play hockey; it's time to take out the shovel and clear the ice so the game can resume. That's what 5-year-old David Gray did yesterday on Toronto Island. Only the skiers were smiling after a snowstorm dumped more than 20 centimeters (eight inches) of snow on Metro.
