2019 Reunion

The First 20th Century New Jersey Hockey Reunion was an epic event. Bringing together players, parents, coaches, administrators, officials and many of the Legends who helped to make it all possible for thousands of youngsters over several decades in the last century. It was a chance to say hello to all, thank you to many, and sadly... goodbye to some. The memories from that evening will remain embedded forever in the minds of all who attended.

Attendee Quotes & Comments

Best part of the hockey reunion was to be able to say thank you to the Men that shaped us not only as players, but as men. Coaches, team executives, managers,
trainers and officials don’t usually get the standing ovations. Last night, they did.
And they deserved it. Great people who gave of their time to teach us the game of hockey and the game of life. This event was a fitting tribute to those great men.
Thank You!

Wow, I just got back from the New Jersey Hockey History Reunion. So awesome to see old friends, players, coaches and
architects of youth hockey in NJ.
This was phenomenal! Saw my first ever travel coach, Doc Felber.
My dad would have loved this.
Great times!!!

Zero words in the English language to describe what I’m feeling right now. Only way to describe it would be… it was like finding a time machine and going back to 1984, and not wanting to come back. Trying to process everything and I doubt I will sleep at all tonight. I could not walk more than ten feet without seeing someone with a connection to my hockey past. This night will be hard to top. This MUST happen again.

Le retour. What an epic trip on this jump over. Muchas Gracias goes out to
Jim Szymanski for his vision on hosting
and putting together a truly epic
Hockey Reunion for the ages. Reconnecting with my former coaches and old teammates from back in the day was truly thrilling – lots of laughter, and even some tears.
