    Just been reading that he said he just fell out of love with the game and never went back to WHL for over 20 years. Then he got asked to attend with the other ex players as a hospitality host and he agreed thinking he’d hate it but turned out he really enjoyed himself and had been histing for the last couple of years.

    Went to a Friday night match at the Lane with my dad, years and years ago.
    For some reason we sat in the Bramall Lane Stand.
    At the back of the stand sat the whole of the Spurs team who were playing a semi-final in S6 the following day.
    I was too shy, so my dd wet and asked for their autographs.
    I can only rmember Gilzean, Veneables and Nicholson although no doubt others, such as Mullery, McKay, et al.
