Message: <blockquote data-quote="superballs" data-source="post: 52771" data-attributes="member: 341">There was this game called Rebound that was basically like shuffleboard with elastics.  Had these ball bearing puck things (metal balls with plastic rings around them).Not as smooth as a pinball but worth a try maybe (if the rings were a soft plastic maybe help reduce mainenance too).Honesty is difficult but i grew up in an all Wings family and i remember living through the drought (I even bet my dad 50$ in the NJ Vs Detroit cup and he reneged on paying me after they got swept).  I remember in the late 80s and early 90s though Montreal and Detroit always finished at the top of their respective conferences, I've dreamt almost all my life of seeing a Habs vs Wings final (would be the most epic in history) as the two teams seem to bring the best out in each other when they play (much like a Habs/Leafs, Habs/Bruins, Canucks/Flames/Oilers, etc game).  But alas...after my Habs took the 92/93 championship they just decided to stop being a historic franchise and became one of the NHL's funniest jokes.  Hell, when Roy jumped ship to the Avs I went with them (i needed an honorary favorite and as I've been a goalie in all my hockey play and having started following hockey in 86, he was my hero), unless of course they were playing the Habs <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />.To be continued......continued.Even I shed a tear watching Stevie-Y hoist that cup, seriously, that was a great moment in Hockey.  The only athlete I thought deserved a championship more than him was Barry Sanders.  In fact, Yzerman stuck with the wings through the end of their rough patch and when they always seemed to have so much promise and tank in the playoffs (swept first round by a 3 year old San Jose Shark for example).I think respect for Rival teams is paramount though, i mean theres a difference between fans and fanboys.  While i won't think twice about ripping on another team (cause, I mean...that's the way it's done right?), respect should always be there.I'm also glad Winnipeg is back...I know I'm a year late but that was the most interesting NHL storey to me for the past 3 years.</blockquote>
