Youll like this then. When I was a kid somewhere around 1972 or 1973, we went to a game at the Olympia to see the Jr. Wings who was their farm team at the time. After the game the kids were invited to skate on the ice.

While we were still out there the Red Wings came out to practice. They let us skate with them and shoot and take passes for a few minutes and then we had to leave the ice. But we got to stay and watch practice and before the formal practice began they shot pucks over the boards for us all to run and collect. I still have one signed by Alex Delvecchio and Marcel Dionne. I have it in a beautiful glass case on my desk and am looking at it right now.

Years later I tried to get Mickey Redmond to sign it but didnt have any luck.

One other thing... I have a brick from the Old Red Barn. My friends and I drove down there the day they demolished it.
