SEVEN reasons why I love him:
1. He's HUGE.
2. One of the two former Hartford Whalers still playing in the NHL (ghettoooo) 
3. He's from a town in Ontario that I never heard of until I did this post
4. He was arrested for drunk driving, involved in a barroom brawl, and is considered by some to be impatient and immature. Bad-ass
5. No team that has ever traded him away has qualified for the playoffs the following year that he was traded. Coincidence?
6. I could probably fit in between the gap in his teeth.
7. He's a total douche and everyone knows it.
