Drove 2 hours to Ottawa for the game. Stopped by the hotel and met some of the players. W ehave done that a couple times. Always a great moment. Arrive ti the game sit down in my Iggy Jersey. A very nice older lady sits besides me. She comments how much loves my jersey. Then says wait till you see mine. After she takes off her jacket she has a Conroy Jersey on. She comments that Iggy and Conroy are best friends. I agree and say I loved Conroy as a player. It is still about 15 minutes before start time. We chat a little more. Then she says Conroy is my nephew and she was visiting with him earlier before the game and asked to take a photo with me!!! I jump up and say yes for sure. My wife takes the photo and sends it to her via text. She then sends it to Conroy! Lovely lady with a great knowledge of hockey. She even texted us to make sure we made it home after the game. Just wanted to share this cool interaction my family had.

Wholesome moments to remind us what the game is all about. Love it!
Much respect for Auntie Conroy from an oilers fan
