I remember my buddies being so stoked about him getting signed... and all I could think was, what is this overbearing, larger-than-life personality gonna do to our tight-knit little band of rag-tag heroes?

Guess we found out...
The call is

"But there is going to be that seventh game. We hope they can patch Linden up and get him in that one. He will play. You know he'll play! He'll play on crutches! He will play...and he play at Madison Square Garden on Tuesday night! The game is over!"

Epic call. I still tear up whenever I hear it.
