Flyers fan who caught stick during Game 6 returns it to Cam York
Cam York later admitted he regretted throwing the stick, first worrying about whether it hit anyone and then realizing he wanted to keep the memento.
A Flyers fan who caught the game-winning stick from Cam York during the team's series-clinching overtime victory says the only thing better than receiving it was getting the chance to give it back. Jack Brod left Game 6 with York's stick after the player tossed it into the crowd in celebration. York later admitted he regretted throwing the stick, first worrying about whether it hit anyone and then realizing he wanted to keep the memento.
"I'm not gonna reuse it. I'm not reusing it. I'm just gonna frame it," he said.

"It was important to Cam to have it, way more important for him than for me or anybody else," he said. York showed his appreciation by giving Brod a signed jersey and another signed stick inscribed with "glad you're okay.
" "I mean, if that was gonna happen to any fan, Philly fans are as tough as they get, so I figured even if it did hit him, he was gonna still enjoy the moment and be happy. So it was a cool moment for both of us," York said on Friday. Brod didn't keep the replacement stick for himself.
