Thursday was the day for a fan to collect his prize after an impressive hockey shot at a Springfield Thunderbirds game.
Nathan Vila of West Springfield was the first-ever winner in the team's Shoot to Win Challenge when he rifled a puck the length of the ice into a small hole in front of a net earlier this month.
Vila claimed his brand-new car from Mercedes-Benz of Springfield yesterday.
Next week Vila will join the military.
