Red Wings Home Opener

Wow, what a night. I've never been to an opening night game for the Red Wings and this one was cool because they raised the Stanley Cup banner and had the festivities that went along with it. Although they lost to an original six nemesis, Toronto Maple Leafs, it was still a great game. Looking forward to another Stanley Cup season.

Wings Win The Cup

What a ride it was with the Wings winning the cup and I got the chance to cover the winning game in Pittsburgh. Worth the long drive! It's an experience that helps to shape you as a photographer, working under a deadline, working with tons of other experience photographers and media and a governing body being very specific about what you can and can't do. It's something I'll always remember....AND THE WINGS WON CUP #4 in the last 11 years.

At one point after the victory, my images appeared on ESPN, CBS Sports and Yahoo simultaneously. That was an accomplishment for me.
