my mother brought me to the old jets practice winnipeg arena in the 90s beside polo park mall...teemu came outside and signed autographs, he picked me up i was 3. great man off the ice.
He is kinda funny guy off ice also. He used to pop up in finnish media quite a lot. It was hilarious at times. One time finn media got a hold of him during the WC games, Teemu obviously drunk promised to the Finnish TV that he'd open a tap from the moment that puck drops to the last whistle. I can't remember which bar but it was a small place in some relatively small town.
I met Teemu w my dad 1995. He gave 2 hours autographs, smiled and laughed. It was the happiest day of that summer for me, my dad and I believe some others. What a gentleman! Never talked trash, wanted to win, but not with any cost. Legend with big L!

Jamie Macoun Jumped up on the glass and gave me the game puck after a flames win when I was 5. Those experiences stick with you for life hey?

Teemu looks great still. Like he could still strap up and compete. Beard looks great too
This guy is a legend I remeber him from the ducks thou
Great interview.
Chris Pronger has an SPECIAL - relationship with Finland ! Not Him only / but The Whole FAMILY ! Cheers !
It would be interesting to have him guest more not just when he's promoting something
Felt like Dan's life had FLASHed in front of his eyes, when he started to speak after the headlock. It was kinda incoherent :)
shouts out to Vancouver!
Teemu at 3:52 looks like Parros holding that cup
G.O.A.T
