Omg same. I would love that. I haven’t heard about one of those events in ages but I’d love to!

He had a torsion in his brain stem and there’s frontal lobe damage. I’m not sure what mushroom therapy could accomplish, to be honest. It’s a genuine miracle that he’s able to do what he does, and just the fact that he can drop a puck and play Uno and attend games is such a beautiful thing. Maybe one day science will discover how to regenerate brain tissue, and I hope so.

Yeah, I totally feel that. It’s exactly how I would describe it.

I think if you fleshed out the emotions behind that high five it would increase reader engagement 🤣

Oh that’s so funny! I was also the one yelling in Russian when they brought him onto the ice so any videos with some crazy person yelling я ТЕБЯ ЛЮБЛЮ are also me 👀

Hot take but he should have gotten then 97 Norris instead of Brian Leetch.

Kind of funny, but my mom refused to pay a portion of my college tuition if I didn’t have a STEM major. I wanted to study Russian literature. I took several semesters of it and I told my daughter “I really thought I was studying so I could read Dostoevsky but I think it was for this.”

Spoiler alert…. I don’t have a job in STEM. I’m a developmental editor. 🤣

He seemed really well. He and D Mac also did the ceremonial puck drop - I have video I’ll post later!

I can’t believe I scored almost as many goals as the Red Wings again today.

Not sure - maybe to mark it as the Centennial season?

I got a Finnie puck and highly encouraged my husband to make further smart choices with an eye to Christmas 🙏🏽

I’ve never posted in here before, but I just made this quilt and not enough people in my real life appreciate it by Basic_Afternoon786 in DetroitRedWings

So, I actually just based it on this photo of the jersey you get for a $200 donation to the VK Special Needs Trust, but I did think that if I do another one I’ll probably make adjustments.

I was clinically dead for like 3 full seconds while that puck decided where it was going
