Game 7, 2008 Quarterfinals vs. Calgary = What a stud.

36th all-time in goals.

39th all-time in points.

40th all-time in games played.

Kryptonite to Kiprusoff. Conqueror of Calgary.

The toast of Teal Town.

40 years old today.

Happy birthday, Jeremy Roenick.

Oh wow it's his birthday.

Happy birthday JR! It was great having him on the team for two years, and I will never forget “500” or his Game 7 performance.

That same Game 7 is on NHL Network tonight.

Wonder if it is because of his birthday.

One of my favorite players of all time

Grit, grace, and something else that starts with the letter ‘G’. I coincidentally put my JR Coyotes shirt on today. lolz

I like my goals like I like my booze..... Top shelf.

Craziness that in 2 seasons playing primarily on the fourth line (when RW wasn’t screwing with the line combos, which, granted, was pretty much every other game), he cemented himself as a fan favorite and a guy that we will talk about and pay attention to even after he’s gone. Not many guys can do that, but then again, not many guys are like Jeremy Roenick.

Happy Birthday Mr. Jeremy Roenick!

Oh man, JR was great! I enjoyed watching a living legend play and accomplish career goals in Shark Teal!

So…. When can he come back ala Scott Niedermaye before it’s too late? Lets get him a cup for his 40th B-day! … We got Blake… Playoffs have expand rosters, no? (=

Happy bday

the last time I saw my father about 6 years ago and he gave me a autographed roenick blackhawks starter jersey. I had it authenticated and estimated value in his last year with us was around 700 i’m sure it will only rise as the years go by.

Happy Birthday JR!

Pleased we share a birthday, and I will never forget your reaction to the little teeny sign I made for you on our birthdays and how you just stood there whacking away at the glass with your stick till you got my attention, just so you could say thank you. You’re a class act all the way, and I miss you!
