A couple years ago, most people remembered goalie Ty Conklin, then with the Edmonton Oilers, for one thing -- mishandling a puck that led to a pivotal Carolina Hurricanes goal in the Stanley Cup finals.It's funny, however, how things change.
Earlier this month, on the first day of the new year, he stymied the Buffalo Sabres on an international stage, stopping pucks and dodging snowflakes to pick up the win in this year's Winter Classic.
That's why I was happy to add him on this University of New Hampshire puck. Given he was born in Anchorage, Alaska, I had him sign the American-born goalie stick, too.
