Modano: It was just great to see. He's a guy who's been so consistent, that goes without saying. He's a great guy to begin with. Not only a phenomenal basketball player, but a fun, laid-back kind of guy to hang around with. I was happy for Dirk. I watched it a handful of times last night, and to do it at home, in front of the fans, I think for him that probably was even more meaningful.
