With Kevin Kennedy

Hockey was something I just tried one day. I was pretty active as a youngster and started my hockey career pushing a chair around cones on the rink in Hamburg, New York. I played there until about peewee and then I moved to West Seneca and played there for the Wings.

My dad never played hockey – he was in to other sports like baseball and football. I guess it was just a thing I tried out when I was really young for a way to burn off some energy. I gave it a shot and loved it. I watched a lot of hockey as a kid and my favorite team was always the Sabres. I’m also a big football fan so I loved the Bills, too. My favorite hockey players as a kid were Pat LaFontaine and Mike Peca.
