Nice to get out of the house and attend the Hockey Lunch today.

The special guests were NHL Alumni Chris Kontos and his son Kristoff that has been playong pro in England, along with some former scouts.

Suzanne Primeau, granddaughter of Hall of Famer Joe Primeau,had the gift he received when the Leafs won the Cup in 1951... a silver cigarette holder (no ring that year).

AND the owner of Bill Barilko's Game Winning Overtime Goal in the 1951 Stanley Cup Finals, that won the Leafs the Cup, brought the puck on a field trip.

Always great stories and greeat company.
