ICYMI: Ryan Smith Gets Game Puck For Inaugural Win
As the Utah Hockey Club prepares to face the New York Islanders in their first-ever road game in just over 30 minutes from now, owner Ryan Smith and his wife, Ashley, had different reason to celebrate Tuesday.
The owner was awarded the game puck from captain Clayton Keller, as posted by the club this morning on social media, in honor of the squad's first win against Chicago in the historic Inaugural Game.
