Wow that is a great story.

Chimer isn't the only one. Howson spent a couple hours going over the contract with him basically section by section. It wasnt one of those goof contracts, it was an honest to god NHL contract, and was set up the same way 1 day practice goalies or retirees are.

Malhotra has also gotten close with the kid.

I've spent a little time with Manny and Chimmer over the years. They came out and curled with us at the Columbus Curling Club one day during last winter olympics. Them and Engblom, and then we went to the bar for beers after. Was pretty great. We havent always been good, but we've had a lot of character guys.
