Some Stamkos stuff......

His post-contract luxury item of choice ?

-- "I just got 'Stamer' license plates from my uncle yesterday. I told him I'm
going to put it on my bicycle right now until I get my contract."

Future millionaire's ride?

-- "I've always liked the Lincoln Navigator, but Tampa Bay is a warm spot, so
I might have to change that. Especially with gas prices," he said.

Incentives for a rookie contract ?

-- "Killing, or dying, in a "Saw" movie. "

[ Oren Koules, the new co-owner of the Lightning helped give the world Cary
Elwes sawing off his own foot ].

-- "Those are probably one of my favorite movies, to be honest with you," said
Stamkos. "It might sound a little crazy that I'm saying that. I love all
the blood and guts."

-- "Maybe we can work something in the contract where I can appear in the next
'Saw' movie. Maybe I chop someone's head off. Maybe I get my head chopped
off."

We've come a long way from Gordie Howe insisting on a Red Wings Jacket.
