For me, hockey started over 50 years ago — it was in my family. From the Canadians that played for the R.I. Reds who rented rooms at my grandmother’s house near the old RI auditorium, to my first day at Dudley Richards rink with my dad as an EP Blue, hockey has been a big part of my life. And it’s been a big part of the life of the people on my staff, as well as the people I’ve served in the hockey community for twenty years.

I’ve been lucky to work in the business of the game I love, but it’s not just the love of the game that makes my job great. It’s the relationships that I’ve formed over the years: the parents and the coaches that I’ve become friends with, and the little guys that I suited up so many years ago who are now graduating from college and someday will be bringing their kids in to see me for their first pair of skates.

I started Ray’s in 1998 and twenty seven years later we’re still going strong. Honesty, integrity, and a “do whatever it takes to help the customer” attitude has proven to be a successful recipe.
