Hey fellow carbon-based meat mannequins! Hope Monday is not kicking your backside too badly this go around! One way or the other, I’m back to serve up another distraction from the daily grind with the latest “Who Am I…?”
For those first-timers, here is the skinny: Listed below are five clues about a hockey relevant individual, be they player, coach, or “other” (e.g., celebrity, media type, athlete) with a connection to the game of hockey. Your job? A two part deal. First, identify the individual. Second? Back up your answer! Specifically: how DOES that person fit with the clues? We’re learning and playing at the same time here folks. Enter complete responses in the comments (person and how they fit) and we’ll see how long it takes to identify our mystery person!
Here we go with individual #51:
1. My father also played in the NHL.
2. I am in the top ten all time for single season totals at my position in a specific statistic.
3. While not the only player to ever __________ in the NHL, I was the last one to.
4. I was a first team all-star in a season where I led in three statistical categories.
5. I also have ties to two other sports, albeit not as directly as I did in hockey.
Have at it everyone, and good luck in the hunt for what may be a trickier one than usual…
Positive vibes to you all. Take some time to care for yourselves and one another (family, friend or stranger)! The positive impact we can have on an individual level, even in what can feel like the smallest of gestures, is far greater than we give ourselves credit for. My best your way…
