Palin To Drop Puck At Flyers Home Opener PHILADELPHIA (CBS 3) ― Alaska Governor and Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin, the nation's most popular hockey mom, will take center ice opening night as the Flyers host the New York Rangers to kick off their 2008/2009 season.
On Saturday, October 11, Palin will drop the puck along with the winner of the Philadelphia Flyers regional search for the "Ultimate Hockey Mom" yet to be announced.
"Because of the tremendous amount of publicity she has brought to our sport, we invited the most popular hockey mom in North America to our home opener to help us get our season started," said Comcast-Spectacor Chairman Ed Snider who founded the Flyers in 1967. "We are very excited she has accepted our offer and we are very proud of the publicity she is generating for hockey moms and the sport of hockey."
The Philadelphia Flyers organization has been searching for the "Ultimate Hockey Mom" in an online contest which asked hockey players and hockey moms to enter the contest by submitting a "hockey mom poster."
The winner of the contest will join the Alaska Governor at center ice to drop the ceremonial puck and will also receive $500 gift certificates to David J. Witchell Salon and Spa and to the Wachovia Center's Fan Gear store.

And Pleeease...observably stupid.
I would imagine most of the wing fans are Republicans so she'd get a nice reception. Of course, once she walks out of JLA, that's a different story.
?? what's that mean ??
There was once Grant Fuhr.
Gotta love her. She’s made this campaign bearable. A shining star she is.
I used to play goalie and he was one of my favorites.
McCain is no hockey puck for his decision to pick Palin as his running mate——
Half black. White mother, black father.
What’s a Puck?
Yeah, but it was worth pointing out. There are others like Carter, Brandeshere (sp?).
Dropping a ‘black’ colored puck for a hockey ceremony is racist? It’s a non-sequitur.
You may have something there. Maybe she can hip-check Hussein into the boards!
It was sarcastic, meaning everytime you mention the word "black" people see it as racist. Next time I'll be sure to add a footnote for those to whom sarcasm soars above their heads.
Oh, ok...sometimes I knee-jerk my posts. :-)
...and George Laraque. Prolly the toughest guy in the league.
It's a slow burning stick that you use to light fire crackers. I'm not sure why they want her to drop it though.
Been there many times my friend, sometimes I wish we could go back and edit comments we've made, you know? I posted some when I cringed when I re-read it!
I like him, not the most skilled player in the league but he plays his role well, I'd take him on the Red Wings anytime.
