List your fav hockey possession, you're allowed more than one.

I have a basement full of hockey stuff, I have 2 favs that I would never get rid of.

1. My replica Maple Leafs Garden with removable roof very well done.

2. 1979 Edmonton Oilers Media guide with Gretzky on the cover. Very hard to find

3. Jimmy Key autographed practice bat. (one of my fav pitchers)

My parents basement is full of my hockey cards..About 10000 of them from the 80s.

Still havent moved them into my house, even though I have been out of there for 6 years..

That is hard....

1. My first hockey stick that I ever played with that I later got signed by Igor Larianov.

2. My Draper jersey that was given to me essentially by Draper himself. My dad was working with Paul Boyer the equipment manager of the Red Wings for his racing team and told Paul he tried to get me an authentic jersey and Paul asked who he wanted to get and my dad said anyone. So Paul asked the around and Drapes gave one of his up. So pretty cool.

3. I am sure they do it for other teams but there are a bunch of large posters that are panoramic shots after teams win. I have one of the Wings 98 win at the MCI center and I can see me in the photo, which to me is pretty cool.

4. I am not afraid to admit my man love for Chris Osgood. I have a plaque my mom got me a long time ago that has a game puck, a rookie card and a 8x11 photo. The photo is signed. I went to a signing at a local hockey card/memorabilia shop back in the late 90's where he was doing a signing and had him sign the card and the puck. He thought the plaque was cool and wanted one. lol

5. My ticket to game 4 against the Caps in 98 at the MCI center. We decided the night before to jump in my friends car and drive to DC and try and score tickets. We got into Arlington at my friends cousins house by 11am, called ticketmaster and scored 3 tickets, slept till 5pm and then headed out and watched the Wings win the cup.

6. Oh and Steve Yzermans cell phone number. I wish I still had the voicemail of when he called me, "Hey Steve, it's Steve." lol and he needed to talk to me and told me when his practice was over and to give him a call when he would be in the lockerroom. This was around 01 02. He was really a cool guy to work with.

Steve,

It doesn't matter who you start because you have a horse shoe up your ass so far I'm not really sure how you get through the day. You must be gay.

66-67 almost team signed leafs stick with all the big ones, Horton, Clancy, Sawchuck

memories of sitting hours with Red Story hears his stories of his life in hockey, lacrosse, football

team signed game used Brian Glennie stick from 70-71 (Jaques Plante/Spinner spencer were the notables on there)

Mike Zigomanis signed game used stick from the World Juniors in Russia that he sent back for me.

much like #2 having lunch when i was 14 with Gordie Howe

I would say those are top five

Probably a signed Gretzky photo of him scoring number 802, it's pretty big and very cool.

Hmm.... lots of Pens-related crap, and a boatload of hockey cards, but I haven't touched anything or even thought about it in forever...

I have a card from 1936... Hooley Smith from the Maroons.

Jagr autographed card...oh, I got Forsberg autographed card as well... Yzerman rookie card....

Other cool stuff as well, nothing really rare or anything, but some cool stuff.

Bah, I don't have anything nearly as cool as you guys. Although my father is an art dealer and has framed several signed jerseys, for other people sadly.

I just have my $11 photo of me and the Stanley Cup from the HHOF. biggrin.gif

I got a free coaster from the pub the other day, with the Bruins logo on it, and it has water inside. You stick it in the freezer, then keep your beer cold!

I have many autographed cards and photos by great players (Bobby Hull, Wayne Gretzky, Brendan Shanahan, Mario Lemieux, Jean Beliveau, Guy Lafleur, etc...) and a large number of rookie cards (Gretzky, Messier, Hull, Bossy, Trottier, Brodeur, etc...) but I have three items that I value more than anything.

Here's one:

Bottom pic standing in the back with the A 6th from the left...his name is Darren M. and he never played in the NHL either.

Dale was the kid with the glasses a fiesty one, he looks pissed in the pic.

Your the guy sitting to the far left in the top pic the NHL is the one with the C who seems extra happy.

Now to comment on the coaches Top pic the guy to the far right is a collector for the Gambino crime family great earner, and the bottom pic I need me one of those hats. Thats some classic style right there.

What? I know a guy who knows a guy, who knows Lou Lamariello. I bought a Brodeur jersey for my Devils-loving gf from the NHL shop online, had it sent to my friend, who had it shipped to Jersey, signed, then sent back to me. In the whole process, she dumped me. Screw her - I kept it.
