Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made an appearance at an NHL game between the Vancouver Canucks and the San Jose Sharks on Monday night.

Prince Harry performed the ceremonial puck drop to mark the countdown to the 2025 Invictus Games, which is set to take place in Vancouver. He was the second royal to attend a Canucks game, following Queen Elizabeth II, who made an appearance in a preseason game in 2002.

"I actually had to tell him (to drop the puck) because he keeps holding and smiling," Hertl said of the prince, via Yahoo Sports Canada. "I'd say 'it's time to drop it' but it's a cool moment. For sure I will remember that one."

Canucks head coach Rick Tocchet said he gave Harry a "fist bump" when he saw him.

"I don’t know if you’re allowed to do that. I did it, he did it. He kind of looked at me but he did it," he said.
