Ryker Kesler scores only goal for Pacific in shootout competition
Gary A. Vasquez-USA TODAY Sports
Carey Price and Tuukka Rask were virtually unbeatable in the shootout portion of the All-Star Skills Competition on Saturday night.
But 6-year-old Ryker Kesler had something for 'em. Or, more specifically, Price.
Despite Ryker's contribution, the Atlantic won the competition 4-1, and issued a challenge to the Metropolitan for Sunday's 3-on-3 tournament at the NHL All-Star Game.
That, however, was pretty insignificant to dad.
"He really wanted to do it, and it's really about family (at) this event, and memories created. I'll never forget that," Ryan Kesler told NHL.com's Dan Rosen.
Ryan added: "To hear the crowd's reaction was pretty special. As a father, it's probably one of the proudest moments I've had."
