Ben Bowns is poised to join an illustrious group of Cardiff Devils players as the club celebrates his contribution in a testimonial game at Vindico Arena on Saturday, 20 June (17:00 BST).
As one of the Devils' longest serving players, the 35-year-old netminder joins fellow Great Britain internationals such as Mark Richardson, Matthew Myers and Ben Davies in being granted such an honour.
For a British goalie, Bowns has done pretty well.
"Looking back, it gives you goosebumps," he says.
"I think if someone had said this is what's going to happen over the next 12 years I would have said, 'no, you're joking, you're having a laugh'.
