Valas19 50 Report post Posted July 26, 2012 He could have an entrance like Hulk Hogan coming out of the tunnel before a match. fire works going off stone cold music and the announcers stopping and saying "dear god...is that who I think it is..it is that's STEVE YZERMAN...now it's going to be a slobber knocker" You know, the term slobber knocker is just not used often enough outside of professional wrestling. I vow to use it more in everyday conversation. 3 55fan, Hockeymom1960 and Greatness=PavelDatsyuk reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KATIEBARTHEDOOR24 426 Report post Posted July 26, 2012 (edited) If they were in before mandatory helmets, do they have to wear them? I haven't seen an alumni game (hope someone is streaming these ones), so I don't know what they've done. They are recommend to wear them but not all do. One question, no Oates?

DatSuhK 1 Report post Posted August 2, 2012 The Red Wings announced this afternoon that Sergei Fedorov, Slava Fetisov, Igor Larionov and Vladimir Konstantinov will take part Pinch me.....The Vladinator?

LeftWinger 5,131 Report post Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) What no Kozlov? Must still be pissed they traded him... anyway, if somehow, someway Vladdy skates out onto the ice, the crowd will bring down Comerica! Could you imagine, Vladdy in full uniform, skating in the #16 again? referring to the Fedorov thread, asking our feelinsg about him....guess we will soon see the fans feelings! I missed it, was Chelios playing? Edited August 2, 2012 by LeftWinger 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BottleOfSmoke 5,965 Report post Posted August 3, 2012 I literally teared up reading the announcement email. At this point I'm more interested in seeing the alumni game than the winter classic. So excited to see Feds in the winged wheel again. 6 hillbillywingsfan, Namingway, LeftWinger and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeftWinger 5,131 Report post Posted August 3, 2012 Feds has wanted back in the the Winged Wheel since he left...he was a little mad that Holland didn't re-acquire him in 2008... Well, that is my little fantasy at least! I too will be SUPER excited to see #91 out there with the Wings again...at least in some form. Too bad he didn't re-sign here for a year to finish his career. I liked the Modano signing, but Feds would have been great! 2 hillbillywingsfan and Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
