Vince Pedrie Climbing the New York Rangers Ladder

NEW YORK, NY – Vince Pedrie saw several close friends get the call that they were heading to New York during his first full season as a professional this past year with the Wolf Pack in the American Hockey League.

There were obvious feelings of happiness for his teammates, but there was also a different emotion for Pedrie.

“I was so pumped for Neal [Pionk] and John [Gilmour] to get up there and do so well,” Pedrie said. “You get your buddies up there and you want to get there even more. For one, you miss them and you want to see them again, and obviously it’s the National League and it’s pretty special. It just makes you want it that much more.”
