My favorite interaction with Taylor was when he was at Toyota center ,I think he was with Dallas then, and he came walking up as my son and I were getting ready to push my truck, I had left the lights on ,after a pre season practice and without hesitation he put his note books and stuff down and helped push ...........got to go to his first game at the forum and watched for him, thanks to Alan Malamud pointing out how good he looked in practice , and his last And watched him from his first interview with Bob where he could hardly get thru it , very happy to see him with the cup just a great pro who embodies what the hockey world is about , hard work,great moments, happy memories
