MIKE MODANO - CAREER GAME 1,487 - MARCH 12, 2011

On Saturday, March 12, 2011, Detroit Red Wings, Mike Modano, played in his 1,487th game, tying Wayne Gretzky for 15th on the NHL career list. The game was against the Blues in St. Louis and we were there :)
After a long career, 18+ years with the Dallas Stars, Modano signed a one-year contract with Detroit Red Wings. Michigan native son finally came home. On October 8, 2010, 5:35 of the first period of Detroit's 2010-2011 home opener, on just his second shift, Modano took a pass from Cleary and beat Anaheim goaltender Jonas Hiller for his first goal as a Red Wing. Wish I was there at the Joe!
"Hey TOTA, these photos are blurry. Something is wrong with your camera." you probably wonder. No, my camera is fine. I was just shaking with joy after waiting so long to see Modano as a Red Wing - haa haa
