I took my kids to the Hershey Bears - Utica Comets game last night.  Our tickets for Bears game are three rows up right around the end zone faceoff circle where the visiting team warms up.  My seven year old son has been trying to get players to throw him a puck all season in warm-ups with no luck.  I told him we were going to try something different - we’d wear Devils jerseys that we wear to New Jersey Devils games and I bought him a stuffy of the Comets mascot to hold by the glass so we’d look like Comets fans, and maybe they’d throw him a puck.  Multiple Utica players saw him and his stuffy and tapped the glass in front of him with their stick or glove as they were warming up, and a couple of them tossed him a puck at the end of warm ups (so he ended up with two).  He was so excited by the experience and kept recounting it to me today.

As frustrating a year as this has been as a Devils fan (and I think the wheels officially came off today against the Kings) - I think ultimately I’ll end up remembering it as the year my son and daughter got really into hockey.  Last year we left most games at the end of the second period; this year they finally understand the game enough that they usually want to stay to the end.
