mojo1917 Posted June 9, 2012 Posted June 9, 2012 So it is looking like the Kings have a great chance to win this thing, which will mean that Mike Richards will have been on a team that has won every important tournament in his sport.he was on a canadian world champion junior teamhe was on a memorial cup winning team with kitchner.he was on a canadian gold medal olympic team,he was on a calder cup winning teamhe may be on a stanley cup winning team.has anyone else done this ?i think the calder cup is one that some of the elite talents like gretsky may not have since they went straight to the NHL, which makes this feat kind of trivia-tastic.

flyercanuck Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 @mojo1917Gretzky never won a Memorial Cup either. Richards hasn't won the Stanley yet, and what looked like a sure thing isn't so much anymore. I always thought he'd get one though, he's one of those guys who just wins. If other players have done this, it is definately a very select club. I can't think of anyone off the top of my head. Quote
sarsippius Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 LA is beginning to gag, I'd rather see Mike get this rare accomplishment than see the stinkin new york devils accomplish an 0-3 comeback..... 1 Quote
idahophilly Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Yeah, I'm seriously getting worried about LA! For the Devils to win 4 in a row is remarable but.... thats right, we did it 2 years ago... I think Richards/Carter would be sick for the rest of their lives if that happened... Quote
AndyS Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 I think the Kings win the Cup at home tonight & the fans blow the roof off the Staples Center,I hope the game goes to OT and Richards hits the game (and Cup!) winner! . . . or I hope the Kings win 5-0 in a blowout, so I don't get too stressed out.

sarsippius Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 . . . or I hope the Kings win 5-0 in a blowout, so I don't get too stressed out. Right, let me have a couple drinks, relax and enjoy a nice devils butt whoopin' ! 1 Quote
AndyS Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 Would love to see Richards do an encore performance of "the shift" (i.e. game #5 against Montreal 2 years ago) to win the Cup for LA. . . . or even Gagne with the Cup-winning goal.That would be very cool. Quote
