is this true?? super cool! You're famous to me!
(Fun fact: Nyssa42 is an extra in the crowd scenes of LaBamba)

Haha, I wish. I was just thinking of some obscure thing that these endorsement people claim. I should have thought a little bit harder about where we all live... sorry for any confusion.

That said, Kopi will be going out on top. He's probably got 20+ goals and 60+ points left in him. Heck, he just won the Lady Byng and was top 10 for Selke.

What an amazing career! I’m happy I got to see you spend your whole time in the
NHL as a King. I definitely need fo make it to a game this season. Most likely will be the one in Vegas in February.

It gives the team knowledge in how best to fill his shoes and special Kopitar giveaways. And if they start making his statue soon enough, it gives Kopi time to scrutinize so they don't screw up his face.

I vividly remember going to watch practice/training camp during the early years of Kopi’s career and being a little shocked at how accessible he was.

He’d regularly walk around the facility and through the parking lot without a hint of ego. Always happy to engage with the fans, sign autographs, take pictures and always with a big smile. He just had no sense of how special of a player he was.

Very happy to hear he’ll get a chance to spend so much time with his family to watch his kids grow up. The years move by so quickly and I wonder if he’ll ever get the itch to get behind the bench or into an executive role.
