Cormac Pónaire hasn't had the season he was hoping for, especially after slacking a week and not hitting the gym much last week. His highlight reel won't feature as many on ice moments as he'd like, but that's going to be on him to work on.

His favorite highlight was by far the rookie dinner that the team put on. It was a great time to get to know his fellow rookies, and a great bonding opportunity.

His second highlight, while not really much of a highlight in the grand scheme of things, was coming out of the tunnel and onto the ice for the first time. It was a dream come true, for a guy from a little town in Ireland to be able to make it onto a professional hockey teams roster.

His third highlight is another cliché highlight - scoring his first goal of his career. It's one of the moments that he wished his parents could have been in attendance to see, but he's even more excited about when he has a first goal in the SHL for his parents to be in attendance.
