Punk also spoke with NHL.com about his experience and said, “When it comes to mascots, there is just something about them. I’m 38 years old and every time I see one of them, I still get a big smile on my face. It’s infectious. I spent all day Friday and Saturday with the mascots and then [Saturday] night for Skills Competition, I took my wife and we were walking the concourse and seeing all the mascots and giving them high-fives and introducing them to my wife like they are real human beings; it’s just fun. I can’t say it enough … F-U-N, fun.”
