> What is your favorite story to share from your days as a pro? Whether it be on ice, off ice, traveling with the teams, or whatever. Who was your favorite pro team to play for? Thanks for doing this!

> I have a story, maybe not my favorite but whatever. The year we won the cup in Detroit we were flying from Vancouver ,after the game, to San Jose and the engine on our plane stalled. We had to a nose dive so the engine would start again. Never seen so many manly hockey players scream:).
