The Buffalo Sabres and New York Rangers matched up in this year’s Winter Classic and as a result they got a behind-the-scenes series made about them.
The series is called Road the to the NHL Winter Classic and the whole thing is on YouTube. This week, they released the final episode in the series and we noticed something about Ryan O’Reilly’s phone. The episode opens with O’Reilly speaking about one of the greatest moments in his life, in which his son Jameson was born.
He’s showing some photos of his newborn to the camera, but you have to look some some cracks and chips.
Everyone has this friend.
One of the things often forgotten by fans is how normal all of these athletes are. They make a lot of money, but they all play this sport for the love of the game and they often have similar thoughts, problems and experience as many others.
It goes right down to that broken phone screen that you just don’t feel like fixing.
