Red Wings alumni answer more fun questions

I mean, I have to say like Ted Lindsay or Gordy H. Yeah, it has to be one of them or Sergey. Three. Is that too many? You get one. Oh my god. Who’s the one Redwing player that you would have loved to play with, past or present? Patrick Kane be my first choice. American kid. Ted and Gordy. Yeah. I love the way they played and they were two of the greatest Red Wings of all time. Perfect. Good answer. Honestly, like I I feel like I played with the Red Wings that I would have wanted to play with. When I got traded to the Red Wings, their centers were Eisermanman, Federov, Larry, and Draper. Um, but I was looking at those top three guys, no offense, Drapes, and I was saying like, “Oh my god, like any of those three as a winger, they’re perfect. That’s exactly the kind of centerman I want to have.” So, I’m going to stick with those three guys. Love it. No, it’s a good answer. Ted Lindsay. Ted Lindsay. Love that answer. Favorite all-time favorite Redwing moment. I mean, got to be the first Cup that we won in 2002. What a team. Uh, filled with all those Hall of Famers and just kind of a dream year. Um, felt like part of the Detroit Redwing family once you won the cup for me anyway personally. So, yeah, that was without a doubt. Uh, the parade sharing with my kids were old enough to understand. So, that was really special. Oh, lifting the cup in 97. Uh when that few last few seconds ticked away and uh we won the cup for the first time and this is where I started my career to to win a cup here was just uh amazing. Oh my that’s easy. Uh when we won the Stanley Cup in front of in front of the crease when Aussie said bear we did it. Yeah. I’ll never forget it. First Stanley Cup 90 97. Yeah. I I mean they’re all amazing. Um, but it was the first for the city in a long time and the first for almost every player on that team. There was a couple guys, Vernon had a cup. Kosher had a cup. I think all of the rest of us, it was our first cup. Last one. If you never became a hockey player, what do you think your job would have been? Jesus. Short order cook in a restaurant. That’s what Greeks do. My dad was a fireman. I had real good experiences with teachers growing up. So, I think I would have stayed in my community, either followed in my father’s footsteps or and become a fireman or a teacher. Oh, I’d probably be farming back in Saskatchewan like my my ancestors all did. No, I grew up in a small town in Newfaland. My dad was electrician. He used to make me run wire for him. I feel like I’d be doing something back home. I don’t know. That’s a great question. I left home. I was 14 years old. Had no clue what hockey would give me, but certainly thankful for it. But probably I might have followed my dad’s footsteps. I’m guessing. those glasses on right now. You look like you might have been an accountant. Yeah. Another good movie, by the way. Great movie. Do you know they had an accountant, too? Yes. Yeah. Not Not as good. No. I agree.
