Between twitter and here the past two weeks it seems like everyone's been meeting the Wings around town so I was wondering:

• Who was the first hockey player you met?
• Were you nervious?
• And who do you want to meet?

The first hockey player I met was Chris Chelios. I met him outside of Cheli's and he was very nice... until I put my foot in my mouth.

Me: Hi Chris, Would you mind taking a picture with me and my friend?
Chris: Sure. No problem.
Me: WOW! You're more in shape than I thought
Chris: You thought I was FAT?!?
Me: Nooooo... I didn't! It's just you're old
(Angry face by Cheli)
Me: errr... oldER.. than me because I'm young... er... younger than you...

I was soo embarassed that I practically RAN away.

And I want to meet The Perfect Human Nicklas Lidstrom

I'm currently writing a blog about why NHL teams' fans seem to hate the Red Wings. I'm in the process of asking fans of all the NHL teams why they seem to hate the Wings but I want to let the Wings fans get their opinions out there too.


So, Why do you think other NHL teams' fans seem to hate the Wings? Is it the players that make it this way? The owners? Bias in the media?



Any response would not only be helpful but greatly appreciated.


I've been off of the LetsGoWings.com forum for a while but DANG it's good to be back!
