It’s super cool playing hockey with my friends. I love skating, meeting new friends, and cheering for the Caps! A book about hockey, the Ice Dogs, and my dream of being the Capitals announcer is a hat trick of awesomeness!

Playing hockey with the Washington Ice Dogs is amazing, awesome, cool—all the good words! And it’s also awesome that my friends Ann and Rick Nash are in the book too!
