Teemu Selanne pre-game audio

The Ducks held an optional after playing last night, but it didn’t really matter as the media was there just to talk with the player who this city has loved since 1992-93.

Teemu Selanne – Will he soak it up longer this time?  Can anything top the reception he received in 2011?  Can he play another 5 or 6 years?  His thoughts on Don Baizley.  Connection to fans (i.e. signing autographs).  How does he feel sitting out back-to-backs?  How does he feel at 43?  Has the scare of an early end to his career ensured he enjoys every day?  Fuelled by the fans back in 2011?  How did he know this was going to be his last year?  Golf promo.  Finishing his career where it started.  Did Olympics impact his decision to return?  One memory that sticks out (breaking Mike Bossy record not surprisingly).  Relief to finally announce it was his final year.  Who negotiated his last contract?  Message to the Winnipeg fans.  Will this game be easier, emotionally?  What would be perfect night tonight?  Where did golf idea come from?  Is family gonna be here this time?  (said no, it’s too warm).  His documentary.  Now that he knows its his final tour, does it feel different?
