NHL Minnesota’s Wild Jason Zucker – leader of the pack of all Las Vegas goal scorers away from home

============================================

By Lee Samuels

The very first star goal scorer in Las Vegas was the great Micah Sanford. He made goal scoring look easy in the biggest of games – first in roller hockey, then in ice hockey. 

And guess what – Micah is 38 now.

Adam Naglich, who was called Stick when he starred in roller hockey and then played ice hockey with coach Rob Pallin in Las Vegas followed by NCAA University of Alaska Fairbanks is now 35 and is a top salesman in real estate here in town. Josh Jasek who scored 61 goals – then an all-time single season goals record for the 2001-02 AA Las Vegas Mustangs 18u – is also 35.

So let’s play the age game with some of our biggest Vegas active stars in the game today.
