  1. Very nice, looks like he bunted it out of the air, great hand/eye coordination. The first one is always the toughest to get and it is good to get it early in the season. After watching him for 3 seasons with the Vipers we know he just gets better with age and maturity. A very good hockey player but an even better guy off the ice. Congrats Connor, we are all rooting for you.
