Remember Mike Ribeiro?

Last I heard of him, he was in Nashville coaching youth hockey and still generally f'ing up with his family. Very self destructive and very sad.

[Stars2099]

Hey, remember Michael Ryder?

[ScubaSteve]

I member!

He's doing a different kind of hanging around than Lyashenko.

Hey, 'member Derek Plante (I did just from watching the Stars/Edmonton Game 1 last night)?

He played two of his last three seasons with the Nippon Paper Cranes of the Asia League. Everyone knew that, right?

I watched the second half of game 2 this afternoon. I don't know how any of those MF'ers got out of a playoff series alive. Outside of like, Hull, Lehtinen, Guerin, Zubov and Modano, those bastards were actively trying to kill each other. And even Guerin at that young age wasn't really *fargin'* around.

And that's with Hatcher suspended.

Also, Tommy Salo, LOL. Hadn't thought about him in a gazillion years.

Really? I always thought he retired after his last stint in Switzerland. My last souvenir was him sitting next to me during a game in the press-box, logging face-offs and shots for his team as he was an injured scratch.

[cdanew]

That's according to Wikipedia, which you know must be right. 2005-06 and 06-07. Looks like he played his last year in the second tier Swedish league.

[Math]

Right, I didn't check the gap in the dates on hockeydb. So he apparently finished his career in our good old swiss second division. What surprised me: he was damn small and light for a hockey player.

Fun fact, he played both for the Stars and the Sabres in 1998-1999, the two team that met in the SC final. Given that he played 6 play-off games, I think he should have his name on the cup and his day parade too, if I'm not mistaken.

[SaintAngerBH]

Remember Mike Modano?

Yeah, me either.

[Stars2099]

Hey, remember Brian Sutherby?

Remember Krys Barch!?

[wonko80]

Remember Grant Marshall?

[slaps]

Sutherby was fine.

[BigAl]

What I remember most about Sutherby was that he took up a roster spot and decisively lost a fight once.

[ToddM]

You're thinking of Adam Burish.

[ScubaSteve]

Krys Barch vs. Downey vs. Roussel in a race skating backwards one lap around the rink. Who ya got?

Pretty much, but getting guys who can fill that spot and not screw things up is somewhat difficult.

Not Ledyard.

[Knives Out]

Remember Grant Marshall?

Grant Marshall was cool despite looking like Stephen Baldwin.

[Stars2099]

Remember Michael Ryder?

[ScubaSteve]

They Lyle Odelein/Matthew Barnaby story that Bob just told on the Ticket was pretty funny.

[Shabazz Jenkins]

Remember Jamie Benn?

[Knives Out]

I still remember thinking back in 2004 that trading Jason Bacashihua (26th overall in 2001) for Shawn Belle (30th overall in 2003) was going to work out for both teams LOL.

[slaps]

I mean, it did in that it cleared roster space.
