4:30 I remember when those Reech Out masks were popularized, the Fox Sports Network Bay Area announcers even commented on them and showed a link to the sharks website where you could print out the mask yourself, thousands of attending fans wore them for a playoff home games vs phoenix. Ricci was a huge impact player on and off the ice, and it's an honor to have him participate in the sharks organization and community after his playing years are behind.
Ricci was my favorite player (along with Yzerman) for the longest time. One of my saddest days was finding out he was traded. Happy he's back with the Sharks organization.
Ricci was one classy guy. Back in 1998 I saw him at an Av's practice while in a Red Wings jersey. All the other players walked stiffly past, but Ricci stopped and chatted with me and my dad for 5 minutes. Thank you Mike Ricci for giving a six year old kid a really cool memory.
I missed the Mike Ricci era but the Sharks are now entering the Big Pavelski years and I can not WAIT to see the outcome of this post season! GO SHARKS!
@ty1977 np, your lucky you have such a great dad. I want to meet him he was awesome. He was the reason i watched the sharks. btw im not saying my dad is not awesome XD he was awesome!!!
Lol, my name is Michele Ricci, and im accualy realated to him, my great, great, great grandfather was related to his family in some way!! WHOOOOO!! WERE LIKE FAR COUSINS!!!!
Very cool tribute! Mike is my sister's brother in law. I've known him since he was a child. Despite his fame and success, he's remained the same, devoted to his family, caring, easygoing, and grounded. All his dreams came true. We are very proud of him! Sharks forever!
Mike is not my brother in law. Mike's older brother is married to my older sister, which makes Mike my sister's brother in law. I am not married to any of Mike's older brothers. Mike's family is part of my family though. It's been that way for 25 years and always will be.
Forgot to mention... watched him one night playing with the puck on his stick... I think he went to flip it into the air a la Tiger Woods and knocked out a tooth. I think.
Hell I knew him when he was with the Quebec Nordiques and the Colorado Avalanche, and I even had a card around here somewhere... when he had shorter hair...
At the time I made this I could only work with .avi files I found online. Hopefully someone will take the time to upload better quality vids - I'd like to see the highlight of Reech scoring the hat-trick on free Sharks cap night
A true gritty gutty guy I miss him already. I wish he had been "miked" while arguing off sides calls. Must have the NHL record for goals scored from his back aye, and a face only a mother could love thanks.
My all time favorite Shark! He represented us well. Nice guy and a tough player

There must be some better quality video of Ricci scoring out there, it looks like VHS tape from the 70's. I love Ricci also, nice try with the vid.
