The Play For A Cure tournament took a break during the lunch hour for the Woody's Hoodies Shootout Challenge featuring YouTube stars Zac Bell and Pavel Barber. The dynamic duo got to challenge their trick shots against former NHL goalie Michael Leighton. "I had one guy do it in an all-star game. I literally went like this (lifted arms) and it hit my elbow. It's amazing what these guys can do with a puck." Leighton said.
The guys did well but so did Leighton who held his own against moves he never saw in the NHL. "He was phenomenal," Barber said of Leighton. "He made those reads well. He told us he saw some of our moves before so I think he did a great job of scouting and he did a phenomenal job in net for sure."
