Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted February 3, 2010 (edited) Oh....for a second I thought Detroit signed him because of Kronner re-injuring the knee. Cool story, though. He wasn't intoxicated though, right? Edited February 3, 2010 by Hockeytown0001 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blood On The Ice 15 Report post Posted February 3, 2010 (edited) Always nice to hear that players are so willing to sign and take pictures. To share my own Cheli story. Two years ago my niece sent us a Flat Stanley. For those of you with kids, you might know what this is. Grade school kids draw and color a picture of a guy or gal. They are usually named Flat Stanley. The kids then send Stanley of to friends and relatives who then take Stanley with them on trips and or vacations. The host then writes a little story on Stanley's events. Stanley is sent back home to the kids with stories, pics memorabilia. The kids then do class project on Stanley's trip. Needless to say, my niece lives in Dallas and her parent, unfortunately and of course are huge Star fans. So we thought it would be cool to take Stanly to a redwings game. Stanley visited rink side where he got plenty of pics. After the game we went to Cheli's for drinks and eats. Just before we left Cheli himself shows up. We thought it would be cool if we could get pics of Cheli holding Stanley. He love the idea and was more than will to ab liege for a couple of pics. Stanley and his Cheli pics returned to Dallas and became part of the class projects and later hung on the Family hockey wall.
