65 goals and 105 points... all in one spot! Matt Moulson and Michael Grabner are confirmed as special Islander guests at Tuesday's benefit for my friend Jake Wisniewski, the graphics coordinator on Devils telecasts. Jake had a successful double lung transplant earlier this summer in his fight against cystic fibrosis.
The 2nd charity event in his honor is this Tuesday, September 6th (the day after Labor Day) at the Local West Beer Garden (8th Avenue/33rd Street) in Manhattan between 7-10pm.
I hope that you can attend -- many other sports celebrities are also confirmed -- Butch Goring, Brian Leetch and Ken Daneyko among them. Many media personalities have already committed to attend as well, including Deb Placey,
There's a poster of the event on my blog -- but you can also visit the Facebook page directly: http://www.facebook.com/pages/A-Night-for-Jake/143686762386026
