I'll try to do pictures at some point but the jist of the story is that if anyone heard the guys from sportsnet, or Peter Maher or Mike Rogers talking about 6 guys going on a road trip to see the Flames play the Pens, Flyers, and Devils, as well as going to the Bengals/Steelers, Seahawks/Eagles, and Jets/Raiders games, that was me and 5 buddies (including CP's own StoneCole).

Anywho Peter Hanlon (VP of communications for the Flames) was kind enought to hook us up with passes to the Flames/Pens morning skate and we managed to get autographs from just about the entire team, including Christian Huselius.

We also managed meet and get pictures with:
Peter Maher, Roger Millions, Mike Rogers, Harry Neale, Kipper, Iggy, Sutter, Simon, Kobasew, and Regehr (all at the practice),
and
Pierre MaGuire, Gord Miller, Bill Dally (all at the Philly game) I also got to shake hands with Gretzky who we ran into in the concourse at the Philly game, I guess he was there to do some scouting.

Anyway, we left Calgary on the 2nd and got home on the 12th, and managed to hit three Flames and 3 NFL games in 3 cities in 10 days (five of the games were in the first 5 days) and also managed to spend a day in Atlantic City and 2 days in New York.

Hmm, perhaps the epicness of this trip deserves it's own thread.

Oh well, thanks for the info on the jersey framing.
