Memorable Moments/Games
Working double overtime with penalty shot in my first Junior ANationals as a referee
First playoff game in Dallas. The level of intensity during the game was exciting to be involved with.
To work the All Star game and be lucky enough to witness the skill of some of the great player in the NHL
Able to work in cities like Columbus and Minnesota as they enter the NHL
Witnessing Wayne Gretzky have a 5 points game
Watchching Ovechkin score a goal on his back. It was a wow moment |
