On Sunday, February 10th, the New Jersey Devils took on the Carolina Hurricanes. Jayden Barros of Hockey In New Jersey was the New Jersey Devils Jr. Captain of the game. Jayden was selected from the HNJ program in conjunction with the New Jersey Devils celebrating Portuguese Heritage Night.
As part of the Jr. Captain duties, Jayden gave high fives to all the Devils players as they skated onto the ice and then joined the team for the national anthem. Jayden is a 4th grade student at Oliver Street Elementary School.
This was a huge honor for Jayden and a memory that will last a lifetime.
