Chris Osgood is one of the nicest I've met . very down to earth. Of course I have to say Jason chemira . grew up together honestly one of the nicest people I have ever met and still know.
During my days in Calgary I worked at The Living Room and met many a flame(It was a place at the time the flames would come frequently.) Iggy always paid the bill no matter what. But my favorite was kipper. I spoke with him for a bit after we closed but let the flames stay a bit after. He bought me a double vodka. We talked about playing goalie and he gave me a couple of tips . I finished my drink as fast as I could bexuase I didn't want to seem like a groupie . I shook his hand and thanked him , wished him well for the rest of the playoffs.
As for the rudest its Nail Yakopov . He was a dick. Met him last year in a local after the subway super series in Victoria.I offered to buy him a drink. He was with another player from team Russia. I had a Flames cap on . He pointed at my head gear and started laughing . He then said something in Russian and hit my hat off!! I picked up my hat looked at him and said the hell is your problem. He said something again in Russian turn to the other guy then he said something in Russian. All I could do is stand their and looked shocked. As much as I wanted to hit this kid . What could I do??? I make a good living wage but can't afford a lawsuit. That and ya know I am much older then him.
