Obviously not :rolleyes:

Jeez, I was just saying I'd love to have him on the wings. Not that I wish he had drafted him.

No, when you said you wished he was a Wing, it was implicit that you wished he would have been a Detroit draft pick, and that you also wanted the dismal record necessary to have gotten him. Don't try to back out of that statement now.

What's to stop Chris Chelios from scoring a goal like that?

Nothing, he can do that whenever he wants to, he just doesn't feel the need to stroke his ego with a highlight reel goal like that Toews kid.

You'll notice that it was Mike Haynes, Avalanche homer extraordinaire, who was yelling and screaming about the goal. That says something.

I've listened to it quite a few times--lol.

I always thought Haynesbot was their radio broadcaster. Unless their TV broadcaster, who's also a robot programmed to be an extreme homer, is currently undergoing repairs.

He is a big Yzerman fan, and vice versa. He spoke about how excited he was to play in the Joe also.

Actually as noted when he signed Joe Sakic is his idol, that is why he wears #19. It was a big deal for him this weekend to get to meet Sakic after the morning skate prior to the Av's game in Chicago. The press covering it said the kid was shaking and stuttering.

Man, this is the kind of kid that makes you almost wish for a cellar dwelling season resulting in a #1 draft pick.

Thats, cool, Sak-itch is definitely idol worthy. Matter of fact, I was recently wondering why Vancouver didn't ever trade the farm to get the hometown boy back. I know its easier said than done, but how can you not try to build an organization around a hometown "Burnaby Joe" Sak-itch?

Streaking down the ice in the #19 jersey he wears in honour of his favourite player (the legendary Steve Yzerman) Jonathan Toews of the Chicago Blackhawks is ready to reverse the fortunes of the Chicago Blackhawks much in the same way his idol did for the Red Wings some 20 years ago.
