1. Saw Byron Ritchie walking out of Holt Renfrew at TD Square (pre-renovation) with a hot girl. Didn't talk to him.
2. Was behind Marty Gelinas in line at YYC in early 2010 on a flight out to Vancouver. Spoke with him and took a picture with him. Nobody else seemed to recognize him. Either that, or everyone was respecting his privacy and space. However, he was the first NHLer I'd ever had the chance to speak with in person, so I took that chance! He was a great guy, but we only spoke for a couple of minutes
3. Met Marty Gelinas again a few months later on the Skytrain in Vancouver. Again, nobody seemed to recognize him. He got on a train I was already riding, and we spoke again for ten minutes, and he told me about some party at Iggy's house (can't remember the details). Again, a really nice guy.
