The conversation between myself and my contact at the AP that occurred earlier this week:

Mr B.: Hey Josh, can you shoot the Thrashers game on Saturday?

Me: Yes, one thing though.

Mr. B.: Whats that?

Me: Does it matter that I’ve never shot hockey before?

Mr. B.: No, not really.

And then there I was, shooting an NHL game as my first experience with hockey. I’d try to give some evaluation of how I did, but I have no basis of comparison nor have I been able to look at hockey photos from other people because I’ve been so busy over the past few days.

Let me know what you think.
