Cote Added to Wedding Party

Adirondack Phantoms News Release


PHILADELPHIA - Two longtime Phantoms fans will be wed at this Sunday's 7:05 PM Philadelphia Phantoms home game at the Wachovia Center. Phantoms left wing Riley Cote has been added to the wedding party roster and will serve as best man.

Scott Sullivan and Donna LeFevre will exchange marriage vows at center ice during the second intermission of the Phantoms game against the Hershey Bears. LeFevre will be walked to center ice from the Zamboni tunnel, where Sullivan will be waiting with Cote. Due to a recent injury Cote was deemed unable to play in the game, making the couple's favorite player available to oblige the request to stand up for the groom.

Cote is in his third season in Philadelphia. One of the most popular players in Phantoms history, Cote has been among the AHL's penalty minute leaders over the last two seasons. He began this season on the Flyers roster, before being dispatched to the Phantoms on Oct. 11.

The future Mr. and Mrs. Sullivan are both from Philadelphia, and met six and a half years ago. On Jan. 2, 2005 with the Phantoms entertaining the Rochester Americans at the Wachovia Spectrum and the center-hung scoreboard illuminating his plea, Sullivan went to a knee and proposed to LeFevre.

Wedding invitations are available at phantomshockey.com or by calling 1-800-298-4200. Kids are encouraged to attend this union, with admission only $8.00.
