Here's today's NHL Nugget – this month's edition of Shinny or Nothing discusses Hockey Hall of Famer Pat LaFontaine's introduction to hockey and skating on the outdoor rink.
His first time on skates didn't go as well as it did for his brother, and at 12 years old, everything was in doubt. But not longer after, he was back on the ice and on his way toward a 15-season NHL career with the New York Islanders, Buffalo Sabres and New York Rangers.
Brian T. Dessart takes fans on a distinctive ride through the historic-laden NHL with the #NHLNugget. Check out NHLNugget.com to find where to follow NHL Nugget on social media. And for past NHL Nuggets, click here.
