I'm outside of the game right now and thinking of getting back into it. I'd love to get back into the organization and get involved with the city somehow because the people are great. Everyone is great from the people who are standing in the first row to the people who are standing in the last row. It's great to be playing for them.

Wow! That was a spectacular interview. First thing that came to mind when I saw this quote was that P.J. would be great to be in the Bruins organization. I'm glad he picked Boston as his favorite city, and it really showed through all the fights and the memories he had in Boston.

And the wave. That was the image of P.J. Stock and I found it interesting that was that he didn't actually want to do the wave. But I'm glad he stuck with it, it made the end of the fight. And I like how he defined the wave as an appreciation to the crowd. It's great how he cared for his fans and loved to keep them entertained.

You're the man P.J. and you are truly missed here in Boston.

Excellent work, Dave. PJ is a stand up guy. You shoulda got on him about that American Express comercial, you know, the one where he punched out the mascot. Still one of my all time favorites!

As a Bruins fan I really appreciate P.J.'s comments about playing for the Boston fans. I knew he enjoyed it here but it was nice to read it in his own words. Excellent interview, VF, thanks.

Thanks, trying to spend some visible money j/k, but glad you liked it.

Great interview.
How can anyone not like PJ?

It kills me to hear about his permanent visions problem. IMO, at that particular point in his career, he had no buisness being in the AHL.

[OLLBLUEEYZ]

He was and always will be a Fan Fav.
