I was there! Dec 17, 2011. Best game I ever went to in my life bar none! Came from Vancouver! Interviewed by Finnish journalist! Ended up in the special paper! Higher than a kite for months! Teemu, I love that guy!
I was so fortunate my uncle gave me tickets to this game! It was absolutely electric. The fans actually wanted Teemu to score after the Jets had a good lead over the Ducks. The coolest thing was that he was the 1st star.
True story – all the way from Australia. In 1993, a 16 year old Aussie kid, that being me, sent a Teemu Young Guns Upperdeck hockey card along with an addressed hand written letter all the way far north to Winnipeg. Six months later A red, blue and white letter came back to me. He'd signed the card. I still have it today sealed in plastic.

Best in game tribute in hockey history.
Damn ninjas chopping onions in my office…
That 76 goal with his celebration is what cracked him, nothing will beat that Winnipeg Arena vibe.
He didn't even stand up lol
I jus love how he smiles when he sees his old celly:)
Teemu"s number 13 should be retired by the Winnipeg Jets. He should be joined with Bobby Hull and Thomas Steen.
Why couldn't the Islanders be like this for John Taveres

Shooting the glove in the air will always be iconic
