Most of you probably know that the Wings suprised Holmer with a Ski Doo at practice in recognition of his 1,000 th game. During the game they showed the clip that included Z riding it out of the Zamboni tunnel onto the ice.

I can't find the clip anywhere. Anybody with better GoogleFu than I have it? I'd imagine it's the kind of thing somebody got a full video off, but i'll settle for the short clip shown during the game.

Thanks.

Thanks a ton, that 2nd vid is the one I was looking for. Appreciate it very much!

Congrats again to Holma. As everyone here knows, he was drafted 10th round, 257 overall. The Wings let Håkan Andersson make the actual draft pick in appreciation of his work, and he selected Tomas Holmstrom.

When he first arrived, Bowman asked him why he chose #96 and he said "Because thats the year I enterred the league", to which Bowman replied "Well why don't you get #98 for the year you're out of the league?"

1,000 games and 4 Stanley Cups later, congrats Holma, it's been great. :clap:

I remember reading this. Hysterical on Scotty's part. Classic Bowman!

It's amazing how much clarity comes when you care more about the Red Wings than any individual player.

"They are the best team in the world. They are a team that can just take over when they want to," Chicago's Patrick Kane said (of the Detroit Red Wings).

Interesting quote as Holmer was #15 when he first arrived. He gave up the number in 98 when the Wings acquired Mironov. Bowman was here when Holmer was wearing #15. I think the "[w]hen he first arrived" might be in error.
