Anyplace where there is desert.......especially in Jan/Feb!
We don't want to do Yuma because that place turns into a trailer town during the winter where millions of people go, too many people for me, sometimes I don't want to be around other people other then my wife!

It was Brett Hull. I met him while covering a charity golf tournament.
Don't worry about the media stuff. I have thick skin.
As for the Habs. It was my fathers favorite team -- so I just blindly followed him. I saw the light in 95/96ish. With players like Gilmour, Clark and Sundin on the team -- how could I not love them? The Pens were probably my first love though. I was 5 and 6 years old when they were winning those cups with Lemieux and Jagr. I loved staying up late to watch them play.

Oh, good. I would hate the thought of having ever offended you. That is something I try to never do. If I accidentally ever do offend someone I feel terrible and apologize and then still feel terrible even if they forgive me. Yes, kids usually do follow the team their dad likes, but then sometimes they find they like another team better. Well, I can see you liking the Pens back then. I actually watched some of those Pens games when they were winning the Cup. Never liked the Pens though. Glad you saw the light and fell for the Leafs.

All of us recent posters seem to have Stamkos in common. Funny no one said Crosby. I guess it's because Stammer seems like a possibility.

I'll be honest, I'd rather have Stammer at this point in his career than Crosby.
Crosby is still elite. But I think Stamkos is about to go on a dominant Sakic-like run where he's just the best player on the planet for 2 years.
Crosby just isn't the same after his concussion issues.

1. Your favorite current Leaf: Reilly
2. You favorite all time Leaf: Salming!!! He was, to me, the next best dman next to Orr. He never got his due because he was a Leaf and played on some bad teams and because he was a Swede.
3. Your favorite all time player: Salming and Orr
4. Your 2nd favorite Team: Is there any other hockey team. How could I have any other team?
5. Best all time player..your opinion: Orr. He changed the game!
6. The one player you'd like to be on next years Leaf Roster: Stamkos. I Think that there is a real possibility there.
7. Last person you'd want on next years Leaf Roster: Any overpriced vet.
8. Remove 1 player from the Current Leaf Roster: Bernier. Not because he is a bad goalie, but rather because he is just not a number one goalie. I would like to replace him with a real number one goalie and have Riemer as a backup.
9. Where do you live: Ireland
10.How old are you: 56
11.Occupation:
12.Family: Married to a wonderful woman. Five children, nine dogs, two rabbits, and fish.
13.NHL players etc you've met: None, but I do have Syll Apps autograph! He played with my grandfather.
14.Name something that may surprise people about you: Grew up boxing in Canada and fought three different Canadian champions and lost each time.

14.Name something that may surprise people about you: Grew up boxing in Canada I have no idea why I didn't reply to you back when you first posted this. What moved you to Ireland from Canada? And what part of Canada (because I never assume Toronto with Leafs fans all over Canada)?
