On October 31, 2014 I broadcasted from the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey, as Merrimack headed down to the Liberty Invitational Tournament, a matchup against Hockey East foe Connecticut. The game ended in a 2-2 draw, It marked the third time that I had the privilege to call a game at an NHL arena (Boston and Nashville have been the other two. ) We were set up on the main concourse and the photo above documents the view. There is something so very special about doing games in rinks like this, because I believe that the more games you do in pro places the more it teaches your subconscious that you belong there and deserve to be there. You look up and see the Stanley Cup banners hanging from the rafters (for which the Devils have three) and it just gives you that extra sense of motivation and excitement. I'm back there again on November 2 to finish up the weekend series and the tournament.
