sundinleafs137 13 Report post Posted April 1, 2004 I dunno if anyone caught this on espn or empire noetwork. they were showing messier autograph a bunch of game issue sticks before the game in the locker room probably cuz it was gonna be his last game and he wanted to give everyone on his team one. He had a batch of regular response plus' but then a batch of all black responses with red "response" and "tps" logos. New stick? or mabye just a limited edition made for him to autograph to give to his team? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
habsfan87 0 Report post Posted April 1, 2004 Yeah I caught a glimpse of that too but I didn't see any highlights of him using it so it could be limited edition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I noticed that he had plenty though, one for everyone in the locker room, but probably the same stick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JR Boucicaut 3801 Report post Posted April 1, 2004 In the NY Times article it said he used conmemorative sticks. I'll find out what the deal is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

habsfan87 0 Report post Posted April 2, 2004 It's not the ones he used in the game, but the ones in the dressing room. I saw the clip on tsn and it looked like a black response with red graphics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Let me clarify. TPS did not produce any "new" or "different" products for Messier or the Rangers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
