I just saw a picture of @ArianaGrande riding the Zamboni @FlaPanthers game in 1998, but the real story is that, by the age of 5, she had already been struck by two pucks at NHL games. She was actually the first person to be hit by a puck in the Panthers' new arena #FlaPanthers

Spencer Knight is 20 minutes away from a shutout. It's been nine years since a goaltender got a shutout in the gold medal game, so it would be quite the accomplishment if Knight got a shutout. It would be a shame if someone jinxed his shutout and he didn't get a shutout.
