No real comments other than to say that's it's cool that a guy that age (I'm not far from his age) would get a shot to be a pro hockey player for one evening - even if his chances of playing were not good.
Comments or opinions - anyone?

They should have picked a High school player-!
that would have been a thrill- especially someone from
outstate- Duluth, International falls -etc.

That would be a dream come true for me anyway. I’d settle for just a minor league opportunity.

This is a really cool story and he will always be able to say that when he was signed, it was for the top team in the NHL!
