1. Huge in Vancouver

Not too big in the rest of Canada, you know, just a hockey superstar status kinda thing. Kinda like Manny Ramirez in the U.S. Problem is, he's an asshole. Guy's like Yzerman, Greztky and Linden have a hero status becuase they are good players and great people.

5. The media snowed him

I'm still bitter about it... I however, wrote an editorial condeming them! Too bad my paper only had a circulation of 1,900
