I found out my favourite hockey team, the 1994 Vancouver Canucks were going to be signing autographs at the River Rock Casino this afternoon, so I made my way down!
It was quite the turnout! I guess people still haven't forgotten the efforts that this team put out 17 years ago. :-)
I, of course will never forget. This particular team will always have my heart. :-)
I must have waited almost 2 hours in this line-up!
The Lissner Twins were here too with their aunt!
Finally, some autographs! I had Jeff Brown sign my stick first.
Then the popular enforcer, Gino Odjick...
And the tough defenceman, Gerald Diduck...
We were all expecting to get Kirk McLean's autograph, but I guess he got tired and left. :-(
I was actually hoping there would be more players from the team, but only three of them were at the table.
"Oh wait, there's Martin Gelinas!"
Gino getting interviewed by Jason Pires of CTV British Columbia...
It was starting to get crazy down there!
I was able to make my way back into the signing area to get Gelinas' signature! ;-)
This guy's work ethic was so integral in our '94 run for the cup. He also helped the Carolina Hurricanes get to the Finals in 2002 and played another major role with the Calgary Flames in their campaign of 2004!
'The Eliminator' signs my pink stick...
"Ah fuck, there's Kirk McLean!" Sucks, I couldn't get him to sign though. :-(
This is weird, McLean and Brown in close proximity?!? Damn, I really miss this team.
