MONTREAL – Twelve minutes may not seem like much time, but
that was all Brendon Nash needed to make his childhood
dream a reality on Tuesday night.
When Nash woke up in Hamilton on Tuesday morning, he was mentally
preparing to play his 51st career AHL game the next
night. A call from Montreal had him changing his plans in a
hurry.
“I found out [about getting called up] this morning right
before practice. Coach pulled me in and told me and I was just in
shock in the beginning,” admitted the grinning 23-year-old,
who played 11:53 in his NHL debut against the Sabres. “I had
to pinch myself to make sure it was real. Then I had to rush home,
pack and hit the airport as fast as I could so I could get here
this afternoon to make sure I’d get the opportunity to
play.”
