It was a successful first evening. After an epic journey to the airport thanks to the insanity on Deerfoot Aeneas collected CB. CB left me a message from the airport stating in all the airports he's been in only in Calgary are there people welcoming him and asking if he needed help. The white hats were in full force and made their impression. Good job YYC!
One thing I forgot was the in person intensity CB brings to a game. He sits leaning forward barely taking his eyes off the game. A couple of times we made comments and they went unheard. It could have been part jetlag and part thinking in Czech but it was something I was reminded of from his last trip.
This afternoon I believe they are off to Aeneas' son's hockey game. The son is a right shot Dman. Future draft pick in 10 years or so. We talked draft briefly yesterday and he said if he's drafted by The Greasers or Ducks he's not signing. He'll pull a Lindros. Smart kid.
Hope to see everyone this evening.
