By far, my most favourite Flame of all time. I was lucky to meet him personally and spent about an hour talking to him at an event, because he was too shy to hang around large groups of people and just sat in the corner by himself. We spoke about Finland, about fishing, about San Jose and Darryl Sutter. Heck, he even called my 11-yr old kid on my cell phone and talked to him for 10 minutes looking genuinely into the conversation and showing no irritation at all... I have three named Kiprusoff jerseys myself, plus my kids and my wife have them as well... Well-deserved, Kipper. Can't wait to see his name on the rafters at the Saddledome.
