Dear Brett
Brett Hull obviously touched many people during his illustrious career, as evidenced by this collection of letters posted on Darryl Reaugh's Dallas Stars blog.
My personal favorite:
Thanks to Tom L. from Sabre Rattling for the assist.
My personal favorite:
I had to retire a bit premature compared to you. I didn't want to. You made me. Why didn't you shoot wide some times Brett? Why did you always have to shoot it where I wasn't? Why didn't you pass to someone I could stop? Someone like Sergio Momesso or Steve Tuttle. Why Brett? Why? Oh, by the way, I named my dog Hully. It's a blonde mutt that I lay the boots to daily.But only because it is the first time I've seen Sergio Momesso mentioned anywhere near the same breath as the Golden Brett.
- Red Wing netminder Tim Cheveldae (who Hull scored on the most)

LOL! Back in the day we used to call Momesso, "Hands of Stone". It was a nickname that stuck amongst my circle of friends. I'm guessing Time Cheveldae agrees with me here!
Ahhh... I remember the old days of Sandlak and Momesso quite fondly. 500 lbs. of brute force and hands of stone.
You're welcome.
Though on re-reading it I think Rayzor missed a golden opportunity to catch the essence of Lindy Ruff....
Lindy's letter should just have been.
Dear Brett,
No goal.

Ta,
However, if I remember correctly, at the specific moment that they allowed the goal, Lindy was a little more animated than that. haha!
