My enforcers

[bobbyp6565]

I also have a 92/93 Gerard Gallant w/100th patch and 'A' - only other Wings fighter I have besides the Kocur. Plus, I have a 06/07 Brett Lebda PS that someone snuck into the collection - still trying to figure out how that one got in?

The Gallant sounds great. I need to add one of his myself. I saw the Tootoo from this past season. I thought people would buy that one but it was still there after I left the sale.

Here are some pics from the basement -

Part of the g/u stick collection -

The seats are from the Univ. of Alabama's basketball stadium. Not a 'Bama fan per se - they fit the Red Wings logo theme of the basement from a color-scheme standpoint.


Some of the g/u enforcer gear - I use plexi and wood basketball display cases for all of my helmets and gloves. Keeps them dust free and keeps all of the glove smell in the case!

I'm a big Red Wings fan, so I have a big Red Wings logo rug in the basement and this is on the ceiling - had it custom made - 6' Wings logo

Wall of McFarlanes - just football and hockey. I stopped collecting them a couple years ago when the quality got so poor and they started repeating the same players over and over again.

Thanks for the pics! Always nice to see everyone's man caves. The ceiling logo!! All I can say is I'm very envious!!

The ceiling logo!! All I can say is I'm very envious!!

Thanks - found a guy out of Virginia to make it for me - basically a fathead with extra adhesive added to it. I just gave him the size I needed and that it was to go on a ceiling.

The 'cave' is right off of my garage and I always get a laugh from hockey fans as I have a mat for people to wipe their feet in my garage, before they enter the "Wings Cave" - its a Blackhawks mat of course!!

Really excited to add this one............

1988-1989 Kris King Detroit Red Wings road jersey - decent wear with lots of stick marks on the front especially on the hem, some scattered ones on the left sleeve and a nice one across the back '8'; photo-matched -

 

[bobbyp6565]

Just arrived -

2009-2010 John Scott Minnesota Wild road set 3 - light wear as is common for Scott jerseys - couple stick marks, a few burns, a few holes and some damage to the end of the right sleeve -

I realize he's public enemy #1 in both Toronto and Boston right now, but finally acquiring his Wild jersey now gives me at least one fighter jersey for each team currently in the NHL, so this completes one of my collecting goals. Still many more goals to go.............
