vladdy16 2,154 Report post Posted April 13, 2016 First, thanks SO much to 55fan for reminding me! Second, it's our favorite time of year, folks! For those of you who know how this works, pledge early and often. For those of you who don't, those who want to participate figure out some kind of financial pledge having to do with the Wings playoff performance. Some pledge a buck a goal for certain players, some pledge per win, per series, per shutout, or any combination. Get creative! Don't get too complicated though, because it gets hard to keep of. Post your pledge here so we can shamelessly "plus" your post. When it's not possible to add any more to the kitty, everyone Paypals me their total and I make a donation. 1 55fan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
55fan 5,133 Report post Posted April 13, 2016 Yes! I was just changing my sig today to reflect the playoffs, and I realized that I usually have one related to this. Since I go complicated, I keep track in my sig. Please, if you are a first-time contributer, don't be frightened off by my madness. It is totally acceptable to just pledge $1 per win or whatever you like. Once again, I'm pledging $1 for each goal scored by any active Red Wing after whom I've named a hamster, all of whom are now running in that Big Wheel in the Sky, and $5 for a game in which the other team fails to score on a goaltender for whom I've named one of the aforementioned hamsters. The $1 will become $2 if the goal scored is the GWG, $3 if it is a series-clinching goal, and $10 if it is the Cup-clinching goal. Rather than listing the full names of my beloved pets, I'll just list the names of those who remain with the team: Henrik, Pavel, Niklas, Johan*, Jonathan, Drew*, Gustav, and our goaltender, Jimmy. *LTIR players noted for completeness. In celebration of my new vehicle, Danny, I will also give $5 for any goal scored by DeKeyser, raised to $10 if it is the Cup-clinching goal. Go Wings! 2 jfranzen and vladdy16 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One of my hamsters had the middle name Daniel after him, and he was a HUGE Cleary fan. I'll not go $50 as that could break me, but I will double my normal hamster stakes for any goal by Cleary.
