Airdrie's Novice Lightning Hockey team got the chance of a lifetime when two members of the Calgary Flames came out to Airdrie to play some hockey with the kids at the ENMAX pond hockey tournament.

Novice Coach Kim Vincent says the kids felt like they were super stars as an estimated 1500 people gathered in the stands cheering them on.
