COOLEST THING!!
I saw that Paul Laus had joined twitter recently and began following him...this morning I woke up and received a message asking if I would be willing to accept him following me! WHOLLY CRAPPOLA ! YES!

I sent him a thank you for following me...since then we have been Direct Messaging back and forth...chatting about everything form him being drafted by the Penguins to our families!

Pretty cool!! He is a super nice guy and very personable at that!

Just thought Id share a story about such a nice personable NHl'er!

Thanks for the read.

Chatted w Mr. Laus a bunch more tonight...just a super, super cool and down to earth guy. Hockey players by fan are the closest and most personable to the fans of any sport I would say.

LPGA is pretty good about it too...
