Today I had a practice with two of the most famous Colorado Avalanche players at their practice facility in Denver. Paul Stastny and John-Michael Liles helped the coaches from my team with our drills. It was a great experience skating with two National Hockey League players. They were really supportive of all of us. Even though we were a lot younger, they still supported us like they would their teammates.
Here is a picture of me and John-Michael:
And here's a picture of me getting an autograph from Paul:
We did scrimmages and skating drills. My favorite was the scrimmage when both Paul and John-Michael helped. Here's a picture of me skating backwards on defense...maybe someday I'll play defence in the NHL just like John-Michael!
I would like to thank my Dad for all the support for bringing me to all of these early morning practices instead of sleeping in! I also want to thank my Uncle Chris and Aunt Kathleen for taking us to the Avalance game last week.
Talk to you next time here in the Neutral Zone!
Ryan
