By @MichaelCaples –
Max Jones is pretty quick on the ice.
Apparently he’s also pretty quick to rush through major life moments in sports, too.
On Friday, the Rochester native signed his first NHL contract – the first-round pick of Anaheim is now officially a member of the Ducks.
Jones celebrated the signing by hopping on the golf course. As it turns out, signing an NHL contract is a lucky charm for a golfer, because Jones had a hole-in-one on his scorecard 20 minutes after putting his name on the dotted lines.
To top it off, Jones was still breaking in his Memorial Cup ring – he and the rest of the London Knights received their impressive pieces of jewelry the previous day.
Here are the tweets documenting the wild stretch of time for Jones.
Honored to sign my first NHL contract with the @AnaheimDucks! Thank you to everyone for the support! #Ducks pic.twitter.com/sqKSCEKead
