Thanks Keanuette for this article that indicates that Keanu might be taking to the ice for some charity games this February.
it wahs | from inside the mind of krix at December 09, 2003 11:54 AM .
[Doug] Gilmour made his surprise remarks after earlier announcing that he and another former Leaf captain, Rick Vaive, will team up with TV and movie stars for a two-game hockey series to benefit charity.The Hollywood All-Stars will play on Feb.7 at Copps Coliseum in Hamilton and on the following night at the new Ricoh Coliseum at the CNE grounds.
The series hopes to raise $600,000 for charity. Tickets will range from $10 to $50 at Copps and a flat rate of $44 at Ricoh.
Actor Keanu Reeves and former world champion figure skater Elvis Stojko of Richmond Hill will also play in the games.
The chief benefactor will be St. Joseph's Health Centre in Toronto. Money will also be donated to Shoot for a Cure, Sunshine Dreams for Kids and the Anemia Institute Foundation.
Dammit! I was just in Toronto. *pout*

Well, r.j.girl, it is my birthday on the 6th. And I haven't picked out a present for me yet. Hhmmmmmm. ;)
Posted by: Zen on December 10, 2003 04:43 AMThis is absolutely amazing! I have to get tickets for BOTH games. To watch Keanu play hockey - well I just can't tell you what this would do to me.
Posted by: Lucid on December 10, 2003 06:59 AMWaitaminnit, Has Keanu been added to the El Segundo roster? Anyone know?
The last update I saw didn't have him listed, only Paulie.
And Kiefer.
Mmmmm....Kiefer
24 ROCKED and RULED last night, and I had a nice Kiefer dream this morning (before the fucking girl cat started pitching CDs off the desk)....
::cue That Tod head shake::
Anyway, if anyone has info that Keanu will be playing in January in El Segundo, let me know because I'll definitely make the trip.
Posted by: krix on December 10, 2003 08:11 AMJanuary, eh?
*cough*
What PART of January? Beginning, middle or the end?
Because I can use this as an extra reason to convince my accountant that I really *must* go on that business-trip.
Posted by: Julie! on December 10, 2003 11:32 AMOn Beckyband.com it says that the Becky boys will be tearing up the ice at the El Segundo event. So I am alledging that Keanu will be there. I certainly hope so. Just being in the same room as that man gives me such an energy!!!!
Posted by: Dre on December 10, 2003 12:53 PMI hope that does mean he's playing. Becky boys *could* mean Rob as well. That would be cool as well. I'd like to see it in ink, though.
Oy, I won't be able to commit to the trip until after Xmas, anyway.
Oooooo, that's so great, Zen! I'll put a bug in the birthday fairy's ear as to your *PERFECT* gift.
By the way...my Mom's birthday is the 4th. You Aquarians are good people. :)
Posted by: r.j.girl on December 10, 2003 06:09 PMi will try to go, i live in Toronto. If i will i hope to snap pics and scan them for you guys. i hope you can snap there, even a holy visage such as Keanu's.
