rdwngnut 0 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 He always at the home games also in the press box section that Stevie and Holland are usually in. He towers over the guys!!

Lovin Jiri Fischer 147 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 I miss him a lot. His career ended so early before it even got a chance to really begin. Really sad. He was/still is my favorite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reilly 24 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 I just realized something, IF the Wings win the cup, I hope Lidstrom passes it off to Fisher to hold up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CapnSmitty 39 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 I do believe its Abdelkader. He was doing alot of one-on-one time with Jakub Kindl last week Thursday when I was there watching the practice and interviewing the "Black Aces" at the Joe..... He really still has his skills, he was explaining what he wanted done, and got the point across really well....Its good seeing him as a developer of player personel...we see him down in GR alot working with the youngin's (c: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hockey13Playa 240 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 Awesome, its kind of sad seeing him with no gear on! What a good picture though, good to see him still around the team. Is there any chance he will ever play again? Or what? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is there any chance he will ever play again? Or what? Is there a POSSIBILITY? Yes. They could figure out how to make his heart safe. And certainly he would have a place. Will he? No. There's just too much of a risk. He has too much to live for to risk losing it for a game. Barring any sudden breakthroughs in the medical field, he's done. So sad. He was going to be one of the greats, I always felt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was going to be one of the greats, I always felt. It won't take a medical breakthrough curing his issues. All it would take is a definitive doctor's assessment saying that playing hockey did not increase the risk of a relapse. In other words; if he faces the same danger on the ice that he would sitting on his couch, they may let him back on the ice as it isn't an increased danger. As far as Fischer being great...I thought he was our best defenseman to the point in the season he went down. And he would be better now. We wouldn't have Brad Stuart...but we likely end up with the Cup in 2007 if Fischer is still around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Datsyerberger 279 Report post Posted May 28, 2008 Fischer: Future asst. coach, perhaps even farther in the future head coach? Well, we can always hope, leadership seems to be a good role for him and I'd like to think he has a future in hockey one way or another. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
