RusDRW 155 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 too many excuses from Probert. Everybody knows it wasn't that serious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Secret 304 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 I met Probie a few times and he always gushed about his days in Detroit. Probie has always been one of my all time faves and he's always been a Red Wing to me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GMRwings1983 8,804 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 Lilja should call him out for making that comment. Probert was way more of a Wing than a Hawk, so I'm surprised he'd even make that joke just to please a little punk like Toews. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uk_redwing 495 Report post Posted May 27, 2009 The way he remembers the game and the organisation, he doesnt need to excuse himself really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest micah Report post Posted May 28, 2009 Great interview! Man, that dude was fun to watch in the Winged Wheel. Nice to hear some guys who I can relate to. Gives me hope for the league:) I feel kinda bad, like today's game has robbed my children of a great game. The skill was always there, but there was a badass side to profesional hockey too. That's mostly extinct, but hey, at least we have youtube! I wonder if Cheli s*** himself when he saw Probie at Center Ice like he s*** himself when Probie came calling after Cheli cheapshotted Yzerman? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Secret 304 Report post Posted May 28, 2009 He was honoured by being invited to drop the puck, by Chicago, IN Chicago and I am sure it just came out that way. Anyway, whats he supposed to say in front of the hometown crowd while wearing a Chicago jersey? Probie still rules in my book!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
