Im my beliefs Jason Marshall is the best hockey player/biker on the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim.

A buddy of mine's dad works for the trek bike company. Hes sold many bikes to pro athletes including Jason Marshall.


Anybody else here ever met a pro on the ducks?

laugh.gif Thats ok, when I met Dan Bylsma, I thought he was Mike Leclerc at first.

I've met Jiggy, Scott Nieds, Keith Carney, Steve Rucchin, Jason Krog, Sergei Federov, Joffrey Lupul, Ruslan Salei, Sandis Ozolinsh, Petr Sykora, Jonathan Hedstrom, Todd Fedoruk, Vitaly Vishnevski, Travis Moen, Jason Marshall and a few other guys. But I'm not a season seat holder.

I'm great at gaffes like that.. when I had Freddy sign my ticket it was for his first and only penalty shot.. and he recognized it and then I reminded him that we lost the game.. opps.. hey at least it wasn't a shut out.. his goal was the only goal for the ducks..

I've met and talked to most of the guys at one point or another. Been fortunate enough to go down to the locker room once. That was my first meeting with Kariya.

Jason York was a former client at my old work, and I actually delivered paperwork to his house (he lived next to Mike Sillinger at the time). I've also sent baby gifts to he and his wife in Ottawa. He got traded to Ottawa right after we got him as a client.

My son ran into Carney at the movies one night. One of his friends saw Vinnie Prospal at Toys R Us with his family. When she asked if he was Vinnie, he denied it. The wife chastised him in Czech and he proceeded to acknowledge who he was. Years ago someone saw Chistov and Smirnov in Target buying alarm clocks. Somehow I miss all those sightings.

I got to go in the St. Louis Blues locker room this year after a game vs the rangers. I met and shook hands with keith tkatchuk, eric weinrich, dallas Drake, and I saw Jagr but he was a far way away outside the arena. It was a blast

ive met most of them..

sightings.. saw chistov eating in his car in front of carls jr. before a game once.. he didnt play in that game... i walked down to the ducks office with salei a couple seasons ago and complimented him on his goal the night before.. during the 03 playoff run i was in the ducks office and walked through 6-7 of the guys juggling a soccer ball just outside of the locker room.. numerous meetings/conversations this season in the anaheim club for the post-game interview.

There's an area at the back of the Pond where the players come out, and do that kind of stuff. Not sure where now, but there was one. Also, if you're able to, going to Anaheim ICE and watching a practice is better.


I've also met most of the players, in fact, a few years ago, I've had running jokes with a couple of them

thats true, but probably a bad idea.

after every game, at least 75% of the players go to the anaheim club for dinner. its sad walking back to the car and seeing people stand out there for 3+ hours at the chance of meeting some of the players when they all walk through the anaheim club and all of them will oblige to stop and take pictures and sign autographs. and they dont even check at the door to see if youre a season seat holder anymore. so anyone could go up there and meet most of the players. within an hour of the end of the game.

I met Vish at the Kaliedescope in Mission Viejo. It was very odd. Him and his then girlfriend (wife?) were waiting for the elevator. My friends and I were waiting as well. Anyway, my friend only played hockey games on X-Box but he leaned over and jokingly sad, "Hey, it's Vitaly Vishnevski, haha!" and I laughed, then took a double-take and he was speaking Russian to his lady, which was a give away, then I about went nuts, on hte inside. He's my idol, I suppose, as far as hockey goes. So, we left the elevator area out of nervousness but we turned around and I just said, "YOU ROCK!" and my friend says, "Yeah, you're AWESOME in NHL 2004 on X-Box" and he just looked at us and said, "What?" with an amused look on his face while his lady friend gigled and held onto him. Then I said, "sorry, you just had an awesome season though, really, you were just awesome. You're my favorite player. I hope you have a great season, really, awesome, you're awesome." and my friend, again said, "You rule in nhl 2004!!!" and he said, "Thanks!" and was laughing a bit... Interesting side note, that night was the first time I hung out with my current girlfriend outside of school, this was almost two years ago. Because of my excitement level and being in such a great mood, I made the move and my girlfriend and I have been together since. We always joke about how I would have never made a move unless Vish came along, haha. She still is embarassed about how I acted like a little 10 year old girl. Sorry, too long.
