Have you ever met a hockey player....is there one you'd be honored to meet?

Question

Red Wings Queen.....accidently walking into the mens bathroom? lmao!

Answer 1

I would love to meet a player!!

I woud want be honored to meet any player but i just really want my favorite players like:

1.The Staal Brothers - they are such a talented family and i love watching them play.

2.Martin St.louis - he is my favorite player

3.Vincent Lecavalier - Great player and a great guy

I don't know what i would want to do i guess just an autograph and an oppurtunity to just talk with them.

Answer 2

i have met darius kasparitis who used to play on the rangers

probably lundqvist would be my first choice to meet now, but i would love to meet anyone

Answer 3

I've been lucky enough to meet quite a few pro hockey players. I've met them at signings, and after practices, and a few at the rink on the ice, before a pickup game. It's always gone over just fine, 95 % of the time. Sometimes, maybe the guy is a little stressed out, so he's not as nice as usual, but very rarely are they really rude.  one of the guys that i was on the ice with even loaned me his stick, which really blew me away, I mean, now he's got a life long fan in me, for sure.

  And, even though I've met all the top players on my list of ones I'd like to meet, I'm still gonna answer your second Q, I hope you don't mind. I'd go with Peter Budaj, (he's a goalie for the Avs) and we would go to his home country of Slovakia, and he could show me around.

Answer 4

When he was with the Belleville Bulls, I met Dan Cleary. I was in 7th grade and he came to my school to participate in a presentation about drug awareness.

Answer 5

I've met Sergei Makarov.. my dad played soccer with him after he retired. My dad also met Korolyuk, but I didn't get the chance.

Also, Owen Nolan plays at the ice rink I used to play and work at, but I never actually met him

The one player I'd like to meet most is probably Datsyuk because I find his skills to be incredible.. but I would be honored to meet any player because even though they may not be good by NHL standards, they would still blow me out of the water.

The other one I would love to meet, although not a player, is Scottie Bowman.. and do I really need to state reasons?

Answer 6

i would be happy to meet any player

if i could choose it would have to be Nicklas Lidstrom

Answer 7

i've met eddie olczyk, and jagr

i wanna meet crosb and lemiux

Answer 8

I have met Lyle Odelein and Grant Marshall after a Jackets game in 2001 , met Evgeni Namestnikov in 2000 after a Milwaukee Admirals game because my dad is friends with him, I met Yuri Mocsevsky after a Cleveland Barons game in 2004, and I met Columbus' mascot, Stinger in '01. I got an autograph from all of them except from Namestnikov. All cool guys, except Mocsevsky speaks absolutely no Russian, he was born in California to Russian parents lmao. He still is a cool dude. Also, I was 20 feet away from Mario Lemieux when I was in Pittsburgh, my team had a tournament there in 2004, and his son was playing against against a Mite Cleveland team. He had a security gaurd next to him, so I decided not to approach him.

I'd be happy to meet any NHL player, even Claude Lemieux.

Kate - Yea, I tried waving at him, and the security gaurd told me to leave, lol.

Answer 9

Answer 11

I have the luxury of my brother.. he is on the Aviator hockey team and the same team as Alexa Lemiuex... they're actually pretty good friends and my bro flirst with her constantly... but with this I have been able to meet and talk with Mario Lemiuex on a friendly basis... but I am waiting for Alexa to get sid and some of the other guys to come...

If i could meet any hockey player it would be Colby Armstrong (he is so cute and funny and is the Penguin clown still I love him), Sidney Crosby or Kris Letang (A duhhhh), Marty Broduer (he is such a legend), or Tommy Barrasso (he is my favorite goalie of all time and forever)!!!!! I would be most honored to meet Tommy though... with sid kris or colby I would just faint!!!

Answer 12

Bobby Clarke before a home opener was real cool.Real nice guy and took a pic with my sister.When I met him the only thing I could think about was him taking a slapshot off his head and getting right up and scoring his #1,000 point in the same game.

I'd really like to meet 99 and take him to the bedroom..Oh you said stay away from that..Never mind then.

My brother;s friend is a third round draft pick of the Leafs (Dale Mitchell). Back then I didn't watch hockey and i didn't know he was planning on pursing a career in hockey either.

If I had the chance to meet any NHL player I would want to meet Mats Sundin. We would go to my house or my cousins house so my whole family can meet him. We're all Sundin fans.

Answer 19

Gordie Howe at the OLYMPIA ROOM and autograph, and several former Red Wings and current.  On several occassions at various locations.  As well as some superstars Most of them not Wings then, at Olympia back in the 70's while growing up.  i could list most but it would take a long long time....kind of like how long it will take the PENS to win the cup after that poor showing!

Billy Smith, former goalie, with the Islanders, I remember distinctly waiting for him to sign an autograph and he was leaning on the rail in front of the locker room (if anyone knows what I mean) talking to 2-3 hot chicks and he completely ignored me for about 20 mins. and finally, hesitantly signed a program.  Yzerman, Lidstrom, Coffey, and a few others at the same time at a bar in Farm Hills called Metro Music cafe, while they were up and coming.  most recently I met the team after skiing in Canada.  stayed at the same hotel and caught them leaving for the bus and game in Toronto (Toronto Hilton) the year after we won the 97 cup, Shannahan, Lidstrom again, Scottie, Stevie of those 4, the only one who I didn't get to sign my SC Champ. hat was Shanny. Have the hockey mag bought from the hotel lobby with the rest of the teams autographs....the list goes on. the folowing year we were at the same hotel over X-mas, like the prior and met the Blackhawks.  Actually rode the elevator 8 floors with Cheli and asked if he had any tix avail and he said no, he had a bunch of friends using his tix.  but met him again inlobby before leaving for game and he signed my Montreal hat.

My fav of our era was Stevie Y, quiet, soft spoken and total class.   again there are to many to list,most of whom I can't recall exactlt.  I have been blessed in that respect (meeting hockey players not to mention other pro athletes.  i'd have to say an easy 150 or so and more when you count other pro sports...all with proof.

Answer 20

GREAT QUESTION!!!

I've met several hockey players.

1. Patrick Roy - He was in town with his junior team and My hubby and I were out for a Sunday drive. We decided to stop in Tim Hortons for a coffee and there he was. He was on his way  in too! We were lucky enough  to have a Beckett magazine in our car, so I brought it in and struck up a conversation with him and asked for his autograph. He was a gentleman, but I felt really bad cause there were a bunch of kids in there who started bugging him for his graph once they realized who he was!

2. Marc Andre Fleury - I met Marc many many times. He played on our junior team, The Cape Breton Screaming Eagles. He was always involved in community chariety events. He just had his jersey retired here a few months ago.

Great Guy!

3. Wendel Clark - at an autograph singing session in our community.

4. James Sheppard - also played on our junior team.

oooohhh.... I forgot about Alex Ovechkin. Our city hosted the world juniors years ago, and my husband volunteered. It was New Years eve, after a game and he was just leaving to get on the bus. He stopped for a few mins and my husband and I got a pic with him. He could speak no English, but he was still very sweet.

I also forgot about Mike Gartner. I met him at a sports card expo several years ago.

I think that is it! HAHA!

Answer 21

I've met all the Ducks except, Sean O'Donnell and Mat Schneider on multiple occasions.

I'd be honored to meet any other NHL players.

Answer 22

If i could meet Ryan Malone i think i'd pee myself. He has such talent, dude. MAF & Talbot would be the next on my list though.

My brother was at Monroeville Mall on Monday or Tuesday and he was in the food court, and Pascal Dupuis was there with his children and wife.. When he walked past my brother he was like 'Pascal?' and he looked down and said "yeeeah, hi." and my brother was like "... GO PENS!" ahaha.. lucky jerk.

Answer 23

Saw Maltby at a coffee shop, Legace at Farmer Jacks. Met Osgood at Hockeytown Cafe.

Also met the 2001-2002 Red Wings as well as the 2001-2002 Avs.

Answer 24

Lets see, this could take a little while. I guess we will start out with meeting Gordie Howe in a retail store when I was 9 or 10 years old and getting his autograph. I met Dave Keon, Eddie Johnston and King Clancy at Doug Lauries Sports inside Maple Leaf gardens when I was in there looking around one day. I met Bobby Hull outside MLG one night after a Leaf game. I met Serge Savard at the Toronto intl Airport when he was coming in for the Canada Cup. I met Paul Henderson in a grocery store one day a few years after the Canada-Russia series  I met Carl Brewer at a hotel in Toronto, and oh yes. Johnny bower used to live down the street from us when he played for the Leafs. And to finish things off I didnt try to get any of them into bed, hehehehe
