In the funny category, remember reading about Brendan Shanahan as a rookie.
Story went that years before he had an opportunity to meet Rick Vaive. He asked for an autograph and Vaive refused.
Years later, Shanahan makes the NHL. Lines up against Vaive and drops the mitts.
Vaive apparently asked what the hell was that for.
The reply was something like "next time sign the autograph"
Years later, Vaive took his kid and they ran into Shanahan. The kid asked for an autograph and Shanahan signed it.
