Good, Nay, Best Boy Plays On-Ice Fetch With Hockey Puck

Who’s a good boy? Sorry, nay. Who is the best boy? It’s certainly you, you triumphant hockey-loving golden retriever.

Last night at the Verizon Center—before the home team Washington Capitals dismantled the Arizona Coyotes 4-1—someone unleashed this magnificent pupper onto the ice and gave him (for the sake of good boyness, we’ll assert that it’s a he) a hockey puck to play fetch with. And boy, did he. Look at this graceful creature, gliding across the slick surface naturally as a water bug. He grapples with the awkwardness of the puck, lets out a resounding few barks, and makes chase again. He is the platonic ideal of good boyness. That is why he is the best boy.
