When the Rangers scored a second time, it seemed as if the building would      from the noise.

After the winning goal had been scored,the losing team's goalkeeper      the hockey puck out of the net behind him, and      it into the crowd. One of the three young men before us caught the puck and,      in one motion after catching it, threw it back to my son.
My son looked at the puck as if he had been given a golden     . "Why did that man give me the puck?"  I explained to my son that the man had given him the puck be­cause he knew how      it would make him to have a souvenir from the game, and not just any souvenir, but the puck that had been the      goal in a shootout. It was obvi­ous that he knew it would      more to my son than it would to him.
