JasonNewEra 84 Report post Posted October 30, 2013 Awesome! Will the game be televised? Probably at some point. I believe NHL Network shows it either the day of or the next. Not remembering exactly. 1 Dabura reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jedi 1,865 Report post Posted October 30, 2013 I've long been more excited for the Alumni game(s) than the actual WC itself. This certainly furthers my excitement, for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike J. 132 Report post Posted October 30, 2013 Some awesome news! So many legends are gonna be on this alumni team. If only they could play more than just one game. I'm gonna have to break out the old dvd's and watch some of the old games to reminisce. Although I'm still hoping and wishing that a certain Captain Stevie gets announced as well. Doesn't hurt to dream I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeftWinger 4,936 Report post Posted October 30, 2013 ...as folks have stated, let the healing begin! (although I never turned on him like some.) This is the first step in #91 getting put up next to #5 where it belongs! No matter what the argument ,the Red Wings of the 90's and early 00's are not the winners they were without Lids or Feds! They both belong in the rafters. ...anyhow, having Feds, and Igor there on the ice will be awesome! Is Fetisov planning on playing? All that leaves is coaxing Kozlov there and we will be set, because you ALL know Vladdy will make an appearance on the ice in some shape or form! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dabura 12,206 Report post Posted October 30, 2013 It makes me sad that "kids" these days (quotation marks because I guess I could count as a kid) have no conception of how obscenely good this guy was, how complete a player he was. I mean, you can say that about any great player of the past, but I think Feds is sort of special because he's really not that far removed from The Modern Era at all. (He's only, what, 43?) Put another way, Feds in his prime could probably still dominate in today's NHL. And, really, exceedingly few players in the history of the game have been the kind of complete package he became.

BottleOfSmoke 5,965 Report post Posted October 30, 2013 I keep coming back into this thread to see if this is real life. And then I smile and squeal like a fangirl. BoS Fedorov Fact #1: I slept with the Nike White Russian poster above my bed for 6 years. I ripped it down the day I found out he left the Wings. I later regretted that decision, and bought another one on eBay. It has remained rolled up in a poster tube in my old closet at my mom's house since that time. 1 St. Michael (the Red Wing) reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
