Yeah some Riccobene guys cornered Joey in the Holiday Inn bar by the Stadiums where there was a popular sports bar there and they had him, but Faffy had someone run out and get a gun and bring it back to him and he basically told the Riccobene guys that they (Faffy & Joey) were either leaving unhurt, or they were all going to die - and Faffy left with Joey alive and saved his life. I'd agree that Joey probably remembers that day. Just another one of Joey's nine lives....

Regarding, Mikey Lance in NYC. I think Joey said this is main guy in Philly (i.e. This is my Street Boss since I'm in Florida). Sounds like he's grooming Dom Grande for an eventual Admin spot considering he's quick elevation to Capo and Joey bringing Dom with he and Lance to meet the NY guys....
