Kid got back last night, had an absolute blast. Hung out with Owen Nolan & Marty McSorley Friday night, chugging beers LOL, and then McSorley remembered them (kid & GF) from the night before and sat and had breakfast with them Saturday morning. He said they were very well taken care of, got some nice swag, got to do a couple of interesting things during some of their free time, and utterly enjoyed every facet of the weekend. He said the only bad bit was landing in YYC last night, he's never flown commercially before (just little puddle jumpers up till now) and the sideways approach made him a bit nervous, haha. All in all, a great weekend for him and after the last 18 months he's had, I'm really glad this happened for him and that it was such a good experience - some great memories for the rest of his life.
