1. I love Cam Neely!

After Turtle Lemieux cheap shotted Kris Draper once, almost killing him, Don Cherry would show, over and over again, a video of Cam Neely pounding on Lemieux, who was all huddled up. Don would say, "this is for the Draper family!" I'm glad to hear that Cam is doing this event. I went to a charity hockey event once just on purpose to see him.
