That i do agree with, especially 1994.

I still him remember him jumping after the clock finally ran out and john davinson saying "its over the rangers are the stanley cup champion"

I think he had no choice, I heard he's already in advanced stages of petrification on 65% of his body. :p

But there probably wasn't a player in the league that wouldn't have want him on their team...he personified the game of hockey. :thumbsup:

Yup, but I think that was a fault of Management. Kicking Pat Quinn upstairs for almost winning the Cup started years worth of a rudderless Team. Big mistake.

My favorite player retires :(


Mike Richter was my favorite player, to bad he had to retire due to an injury.

a poll on a local sports show asked the following:

What will Messier be remembered most for?

- Great leadership
- Sticking around too long
- Pitching potato chips

heh
