Thursday night was a biggie for our precious grandson. He got to play goalie at halftime at Madison Square Garden during a New York Rangers Hockey Game!
His love for hockey began right there when he was 2 years old and attended many games with his parents and sister.
Of course he met all the players. A little 8 year old boy’s dream and an honor for the team.
That’s him at the net.

@fluffy69 My grandkids have done many sports - gymnastics, ballet, tap dancing, skateboarding, baseball, skiing, swimming, horseback riding, tennis, archery, synchronized ice skating, water skiing, sailing, fishing, etc. My grandson is very involved in tennis now and my granddaughter is only allowed to figure skate, thanks to her coaches.
Their dad was horrible in sports except for being a great swimmer.

That must have been a thrill. Does he want to play hockey professionally?

@DianneN Well if he has the skills, no reason he can't.

He must have been so happy! Is he the goalie in white or the one in blue?

@DianneN If a galie becomes lonely then they would be winning the game. Did they play a whole game or only for a limited time?
