People of planet Earth: take me to your ANSWER FOR THE LATEST “Who Am I…?”!!!
Here’s the deal: You’ve got five clues about a hockey relevant individual: could be a player, a coach, or a random “other” (e.g., celebrity, media type, athlete) with a connection to the game. It’s on you to not only identify said individual, but to back up your answer in the process! Specifically: how DOES that person fit with the clues? Grab bragging rights and school us “lesser thans” while you’re at it!!! 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 #56!
1. I am the first to have this first.
2. I played fewer games for the team who drafted me than any of the other NHL teams I played for.
3. I have worked in broadcasting.
4. I played multiple seasons professionally outside of North America in a more non-traditional location.
5. I have been traded for the player chosen immediately after me in the draft.
Have at it and name this nameless random before anyone else does! Good luck!
Well wishes and positive energy to you all. Please put some care into you and yours and look out for one another where possible! Even the smallest of actions can lead to far bigger impacts than we realize. Cheers!
