Lack Lights The Lamp

Carolina Hurricane’s netminder Eddie Lack has a thousand watt smile but during a Pro-Am game in Salmon Arm B.C. he had his teammates and the crowd smiling after scoring a pretty decent goal. Lack, who gave up a pair of late 3rd period goals including one to his former teammate Riley Nash (Boston Bruins), opted to take matters into his own gloves and line up on offence.

And while the opposition wasn’t that quick to play defense…Lack showed he can pick a corner and sniped a top shelf goal past former Calgary Flames goalie Leland Irving (AHL – Iowa Wild). The best part was Lack not holding back with the goal celly including a hug from Ottawa’s Curtis Lazar and leading the high 5 train down the benches. Gotta love Lack! Watch for our interview with him in the next day or so.

The Pro-Am game also featured a number of Salmon Arm Silverbacks who will be dressing for the team this coming season including newcomer Carter Cochrane, Cam Trott, Carson Bolduc and new assistant coach Darell Hay.
