dude if my bf had to leave suddenly and rushed like that I’d be happy for them but definitely sad too! especially during the holidays. noooo need to be sorry gal!
gretchen, im so proud of you for how you handled max leaving during your time together. just from watching your vlogs, i can see so so so much growth in your independence!! proud of u girl!
I flew down to FLA to see my boyfriend play hockey and visit.. bought tickets to go to Disney, and then when I got there HE GOT CALLED UP AND HAD TO LEAVE FOR TORONTO! I had to stay in Florida by myself LMAO. Let's just say although I was happy for him.. I was also very sad for me ahaha. I cried. And smiled. And cried. And cheered. But cried.
If max plays for the flyers I’ll have to root against him because I’m an isles fan 😭😫 but that’s so exciting! Happy for u both! Your videos always make me happy, you have such a good attitude! 💛
I’m a huge flyers fan and when I heard about so many of our players being out w injuries, I immediately wondered if max would get called up to the phantoms!! So exciting 💓
Congrats to Max! I hope you have a great time with the team and they are positive and have fun playing. Gretchen I hope you enjoy time with family and the nutcracker.
So happy for Max! I’m originally from the lehigh valley and its such a cute area. The hockey rink is also super new and so nice! You’ll love to visit Gretch!
Can max answer some questions about hockey if he has time in the vlogs. Like literally I tried to read up on Google and i am even more confused. Like what is diff from the NHL's and ahl and like PTO and how many levels are there can he level up to the bruins and who decides on who levels up
user67 I don’t know if it’ll answer your exact questions, because it’s been a while since I watched it, but she has a day in the life of a professional hockey player on her channel with him where she follows through the day and there’s a q&a portion with him answering common questions from subscribers :)
Max currently plays for the reading royals which is the ECHL (east coast hockey league). And the ECHL is the tier below the ahl (american hockey league). And so in this video he is getting called up to play in the AHL. The AHL is the tier below the NHL (national hockey league). So in short best to worst is NHL-AHL-ECHL. I hope that made sense.
From my very basic knowledge, there’s the coast league (ECHL) and then the American League (AHL) and then the National league (NHL) and NHL teams have minor teams in each of those divisions! Injuries play a major part in people moving up divisions, and obviously if they are playing really well they will get called up! Idk about PTO haha but that’s all I know//
PTO is a professional tryout :) there are tiers to professional hockey- ECHL > AHL > NHL. During the season, guys who are playing well and can fill in for injuries or help a struggling team will get called up to the next level. So in Max’s case, he’s being called up from the ECHL Reading Royals to AHL Lehigh Valley Phantoms. It’s not a permanent “trade” and his main team will stay the Royals unless they sign him to a contact after PTO.
I work for Macy’s! A lot of locations are like that because Macy’s combined/bought out other department stores and they kept the second location in the mall to use for more space. I hope that makes sense! And congrats max!
Awwwww I’m so freaking excited for max! I live in North Carolina and go to checkers games but sadly I won’t be at the one this weekend! But go max!! He’s going to do great and score lots of goals!!💛
He should have someone create a legit Wikipedia page for him now that he's official on the team roster for a PTO. It links to the ability to create a page for him when you select his name. I think that means he's officially made it if he's listed on Wikipedia, haha! Congrats!
Thats so crazy! I work for the Rochester Americans in New York, sad we weren't playing Lehigh this weekend! Max hope you make it to make it to Rochester one day to play us!
CONGRATULATIONS MAX!!!!! I don't know much about hockey, but I do support NC sports teams though bc NC is my birth state. I do know how the military is and they both have very similar ways of "life can change within seconds!!!"
i’m a little late to the video and i’m confused when it comes to being called up and everything with hockey but if he stays with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms i’ll be able to see him play in February when they play the Hershey Bears!!!! congrats Max!!!
@@CarlosRodriguez-rg2yv I think in the AHL if a player is hurt or injured then they call up from their affiliate team (Max's team) then they either send him back down or try him out and keep him.
Gretchen please surprise Max! Such a big moment in his life and seeing you so excited there would be so fricken cute!
Can everyone please like this!!!! I would L O V E to see it
She could give the play tickets to Lucy and darrah

Any time you end up with a visible scar you are eligible for workman’s comp. It’s considered a permanent disfigurement. Congrats Max.
I’m a huge flyers fan and when I heard about so many of our players being out w injuries, I immediately wondered if max would get called up to the phantoms!! So exciting 💓
Congrats to Max! I hope you have a great time with the team and they are positive and have fun playing. Gretchen I hope you enjoy time with family and the nutcracker.

Besides the point but I couldn’t stop staring at you eyes when you were in the car 😍
He should have someone create a legit Wikipedia page for him now that he's official on the team roster for a PTO. It links to the ability to create a page for him when you select his name. I think that means he's officially made it if he's listed on Wikipedia, haha! Congrats!
Praying he gets signed!!! Go Phantoms!!
Thats so crazy! I work for the Rochester Americans in New York, sad we weren't playing Lehigh this weekend! Max hope you make it to make it to Rochester one day to play us!
I’m going to the checkers game tomorrow for my birthday!!! Goo Max!!
I’m sorry but what does called up mean haha?
Pulled up to the team at the next level :)
I means he moved up in rank to mid-level between the royals n the flyers, if you listen to happy hour she explains it there
CONGRATULATIONS MAX!!!!! I don't know much about hockey, but I do support NC sports teams though bc NC is my birth state. I do know how the military is and they both have very similar ways of "life can change within seconds!!!"
That is SO amazing for max!!! I used to go to Phantom games as a kid..I guess I’m due for another one!!
spotted an Iowa tigerhawk on Max's fridge!! go hawks to whoever the iowa connection is haha

Congrats Max! Keep up the hard work. #67
What’s the house situation???
I live 15 minutes from Allentown
Yay! Go Max! Does that mean he officially plays for them now? Or is it like a trial basis?
I believe a trial since they are calling it a PTO professional try out
@@CarlosRodriguez-rg2yv I think in the AHL if a player is hurt or injured then they call up from their affiliate team (Max's team) then they either send him back down or try him out and keep him.
@@denatheduck Sweet.. hope he does well, its just one step below the NHL
congrats !!!!!!!!!!
yay go max!! and I live in charlotte I wish you could come too!
I am so mad i live in charlotte and of course the day i leave max is playing there I’m so saddd
