In recognition of our fourth anniversary and the publication of our 100th issue, we invited you, our valued readers, to write in and share some of your favorite LCS Hockey moments. Here is a small sampling of the letters we received.

There have been several articles that LCS has published that are genius, most notably "It's in the Numbers." Another great was the entire "Save the Whale" issue. I have to say, that the "Point/Counterpoint" of Hasek vs. Brodeur was also a favorite.

Chad Michael Lindburg

I've always enjoyed the player ratings issues. You always find interesting ways to describe the same players year after year, like the time you said Ray Bourque was like a fine wine since he smelled like grapes and should be kept in a dark place. That was classic.

Dwayne Granger

My favorite LCS moment has to be the whole search for Badaboum. The story was both touching and entertaining. But I'm still waiting to find out who shot Badaboum!

Anna Schmidt

It figures that it took LCS to try and find the whereabouts of the beloved Badaboum. The search for the big blue freak is my favorite memory from the first 100 issues.

Holly Martins

I vote for "AHL Fashion" from Issue #62.

Besides having great, knowledgeable commentary and reporting about the American Hockey League, Trish McMillan writes funny stuff.

Michael S. Buskus

Remember that time you said that the league was so stupid that you wished it was smarter just so it would realize how dumb it was? Remember that? That was awesome!

Lou Harper

The bit on Player Numbers was good. Also, references to Dave Miller are keen. But I think your best moment was the Top 50 sitcom characters of all-time. Maybe a follow-up with cartoon characters...

Scott Weakland

I always like the references to Don Knotts. It's about time somebody recognizes that man's genius. Keep up the great work.

Sincerely,

Don Knotts

Naturally my favorite LCS moments came when you guys interviewed me about my hero Mike Keenan. You were the only publication that told my story and allowed me to spread the word of Keenan. Thanks to you, membership in the Mike Keenan Fan Club nearly doubled. Now the six of us are planning on getting matching jackets. Thanks, LCS!

Kenny Bloom

My favorite has always been "LCS'll Name That Pig", when you guys searched for the perfect name for Carolina's pig mascot. The discussion between father and son about where bacon comes from was inspirational. I included it in all my Christmas cards.

John Russell

Well, LCS Hockey reached its pinnacle of glory when the evil slimewench Peter Karmanos had the crap beaten out of him. Just makes a Whalers fan proud. Makes one cry in pride actually.

Captain Sam

This one is easy.

In the middle of last season we broke for the Olympics. It was grand, though the US team had lost. It was a nightmare when they trashed their rooms.

This is big news. I want(ed) to know what jerks disgraced their country and countrymen. I want to know who to never put on my fantasy hockey league rosters. And guess who at the very least delivered a lively analysis of "who done it"?

LCS did a great job of entertaining, speculating and communicating the right ideas about the room trashing at Nagano. I pointed countless hockey fans to that article.

Thanks again.

Lenny Bosh Jr.

My favorite was the time you tried to get off the island by smooth talking that Hollywood producer. That was great.

Jim McCloud

I don't know if I have a favorite moment. It's just so hard to choose since everything sucks...

Love,

Mom
