Kronwall55

Unbelievible so true!

Very cool! I have one of Kronner's sticks but I bought it from the joe. I was able to get him to sign it a few weeks back though so I'm happy

I go to see the Wings play, not for whatever freebies they have. Everyone I know goes to see the Wings play, not for anything else. Do you honestly think if the Wings started giving away a car or whatever at games again it would make people who can't afford to go attend? And non-hockey fans aren't going to attend, no matter what giveaway the Wings have.

Very cool! Thank you so much for sharing the pictures!

I seriously doubt they are having one this year especially since they're having the Fan fest thing next Sunday. I think we would have heard about it by now.

Brett Lebda's day with Stanley

I went to games as a kid at the Olympia with my grandfather. He moved to Arizona in about 1980 and I didn't have anyone to take me to games. My dad is a baseball fan and wouldn't go to hockey games. When I was around 17-18 I dated a guy who's family had season tickets....very easy to get in those days LOL. The year I started going to hockey games again was the same year we got an up & coming rookie kid...Stevie Y of course. The Jacques Demers years are some of my fondest hockey memories....games were cheap so I went to a lot of them. They guys that played on those teams..those were some good times (it wasn't all bad then)

Rafalski's day with the cup http://www.wsaw.com/sports/headlines/27064394.html

Here is a link to some nice pix of Kopecky & Hudler's day with the cup Kopecky & Hudler Stanley Cup pix

they do. Not too far me.

My son wrote Derian Hatcher a few years back and asked him a bunch of questions. We sent it to the 600 address, not a player box or anything he sent a SASE. A couple months later my son received the letter back with all the questions answered. It was 2 pages of questions. Anyway, I always thought it was cool that Hatcher wrote him back. Since at that point he was hurt I guess he had the time LOL. My son also sent a couple cards to be signed to Mike Modano (he was also a Stars fan at one point) We got the cards back and it was post marked from Detroit which I found kind of strange (my son obviously sent the cards to a Dallas address)

Good for him! It's best to go out on top. I appreciate all he did and am glad he decided to take a shot at winning the cup. I hope he enjoys his retirement.

Yeah I wonder about his motives also. I have a hard time believing that someone who appears to be that screwed up can change overnight. Guess we'll find out by his actions in the next year or so.

I don't know if it's in Toledo but if there is a Walmart, K-mart or Target right across the Michigan border it should be there. Honestly, I didn't find this DVD as good as some of the others. I don't know...this one just seems like it was thrown togather at the last minute.

Was it crowded? I thought about going but got lazy. I've already met Maltby a few times before and have his autograph on something somewhere.

Not like 2002 is it? The lines were always long for any Red Wing signings that summer. But your right also. I only found out about Rafalski this morning and the Kronwall one I found out the day before it happened. Wasn't very many people at his signing either.

We just got back from Rafalski's also. Wasn't very many people there at all. I did hear one Walmart employee ask another one "Where are all the people"? Guess Walmart is the last place people would expect to find a Red Wing signing. I did get pictures of each of my boys with Rafalski. As stated above he was only signing the DVD.

wow he's still really bitter about Penner isn't he? He really needs to let go and move on what a jerk!

DC Sports in the Twelve Oaks Mall had some large on ice team photos a couple weeks back. Don't know if they would still have them but you could give them a call to find out. (248) 374-8500

I think the one with the longer hair looks like Nick and so does the little one. The other 2 must take after mom's family.

Yay for Igor!!! :clap:

I thought Yzerman was eligable in 2009? This should be Igor's year to get in. I know he was real close last year.

He did play hockey...probably still does. I think that's the boy that was/is a goalie. I also noticed that all the boys have buzz cuts...except the one. Maybe he's a rocker instead of a hockey player??

Thanks for the pics. They were great! Wow, that oldest boy of his is gonna be huge! I think he's only about 14? Lidstrom said Chelios is old? Yeah well I think everyone realizes that except maybe Chelios. I like Cheli but it really is time for him to hang it up.

:rotflmao: Sounds like a plan! :rotflmao: I'd take it to a Kiss concert
