On March 30, New Jersey Devils turned Prudential Center into a gold medal hot spot, Sunday before facing the Chicago Black Hawks. They rode out the red carpet for Jersey native Jack Wallace, the US Paralympic sled hockey star, who just snag gold with Team USA's fifth, straight win. Wallace got a pre-game tribute video, then hit center ice for the ceremonial puck drop alongside Devils Forward Jack Hughes, fresh off his own Olympic.
