Pretty in Pink!
Excuses aren’t part of the vocabulary when you hold yourself to a high standard.
Enter Andrew Cristall, a 19-year-old forward who was within an eyelash of making the opening day roster of the NHL’s Washington Capitals.
Sent back to the WHL for one more year of seasoning, the dynamic forward didn’t pout. Instead, Cristall went out and scored once and added four assists in the Kelowna Rockets 9-4 romp over the visiting Portland Winterhawks.
“Seeing AC [Andrew Cristall] come through the front door, it breeds a level of excitement in the dressing room,” Rockets assistant coach Derrick Martin told RocketFAN after Friday’s win. “He adds different facets to how we want to play the game. It was nice watching guys, wave after wave for the first 40 minutes play sound hockey.”
Pretty high praise for the defense from the coaches.GREAT team effort !!
PS: I think Gramma Price got his jersey 🙂
Well worth the ‘price’!
The Chemistry between that 1st Line is deadly, excited to see that throughout the season 🚀
