A goal and cowboy celebration from P.K. Subban in his Nashville Predators debut. Punches exchanged between Jonathan Toews and James Neal. A win for the home side.

And Annie was there to see it all from the best seat in the house - her nose perched just above the dasher.

Check out this awesome moment captured by Associated Press reporter Jim Diamond, who noticed a yellow retriever sitting intently behind the glass in the background of a photograph he snapped of Roman Josi.

Fascinated by the image in his review, Diamond headed toward the dog and her owner, and learned that the pup was a service dog named Annie.

He wrote this in his Rinkside Report blog after the game:

After introducing myself as a writer and a photographer, I told the surprised gentleman that I captured an interesting shot of his quadruped and asked if I could have his permission to use the photo in a post. He was more than happy to allow it. The owner’s name is Josh Ray, and his furry friend is an adorable Yellow Labrador Retriever named Annie. In addition to being cute, Annie is Ray’s service dog.

The game was Annie’s first hockey contest, and Ray said that she handled the noise and excitement like a champ. Service dogs are trained to handle all kinds of different circumstances, and with more than 17,000 yelling fans, loud music, and goal horns Annie just took it all in stride.

And no, Pedigree did not supply the seats.
