[The Gongshow]

Well deserved! How can't you like this guy. He's so modest. He really has done a wonderful job and really turned this team around in the last 5 years. Nowhere to go but up!

Thank you Yzerman for making this team something special.

P.S Tell Coop to play that ugly kid more.

 

[Iceman]

Well deserved! Congrats

This is only the beginning. #SFY

 

[The Macho King]

When they announced it, did they say SFY or just SY?

 

[Todd1a]

Congrats SFY.

Good to know did he thank Sather for the Marty st.louis deal? Because I think glen Sather was his co gm of the year due to that trade.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

SFY

You can add the Stralman/Boyle signings to your list.

 

[Hictor Vedman*]

Extremely well deserved. He single handedly turned our roster from an embarrassment to a legitimate yearly contender (from now on) in such a short period of time.

It's rare to see a hockey player go from so amazing on the ice to in a front office. I don't know, Yzerman might be even better off-the-ice than he was on. It's amazing to see.

Keep up the great work Steve! Class act all the way.
