jeff48109 474 Report post Posted January 14, 2011 Z bets with Monopoly money But everyone knows coaches and players put money “on the board” from time to time, adding a little incentive on certain occasions. They just do it quietly. And usually it’s all in good fun.“Absolutely it is,” Detroit Red Wings forward Henrik Zetterberg said. “You want to have that guy pay. You don’t want to lose that game. You want to win it.” Why would millionaires care if a few hundred dollars are on the line? “Well, it’s a few hundred dollars here and there,” Zetterberg said. “In the end, it makes up to a nice little team fund. It’s a fun thing. I think all the teams have it. We enjoy it.” Don’t they worry about breaking the rules? “Oh, yeah,” Zetterberg said, smiling. “But we’re just putting Monopoly money up there.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedWingsRox 614 Report post Posted January 14, 2011 What I don't get is why a player was handing Wilson money and not the other way around ?? Can someone explain that? I thought Wilson posted $600 for whoever got the winning goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
