Hobbies: Downhill Skiing, trying to play golf, photography Occupation: Business Systems Analyst Would rather be: Full time ski instructor Best hockey moment: My first goal - Feb 1997. Game winner vs. the Hurricanes w/ 30 seconds left. Backhand shot from the face-off circle - it went top shelf! I have no idea how I did that - at the time, I could barely stand up on my skates! Most embarrassing hockey moment: Most of them seem to involve me skating backwards into the goal or shooting the puck into my own net or Tripping over the blue line or, or, or, or...... Best hockey advice ever heard: "Get your head out of your ...!" Words to Live By: "Only you can prevent hockey stick fires."

If Taz is not available, it would have to be some washed-up childhood actor who is desperate for work - hey - whatever happened to Vicki from "The Love Boat?" |
