Uncle Mike Asked TPH To Honcho Hike To 12

Ryan Lambert's daddy pointed search engine readers to this a little while ago...

“Yes, he called yesterday and asked if I was keen to come over and play. But I said I'm pretty happy with life and my decision from last spring,” says "Lidas" to Sportbladet.

… “We talked yesterday and the question was whether I was eager to play again. He wondered if his wife was tired of being at home all the time. But she has not tired of me, not yet anyway, haha,” [he said]

"He" is Mike Babcock, who is our Uncle but in a different way than Greg Being Ryan's daddy. Anyway, Babcock asked Lidstrom for one more run (I don't say "kick at the can"...sorry) and TPH was apparently pretty quick to say no. PD's story stems from a Sportsbladet piece and Wysh found the translation here.

About Abel to Yzerman

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
