OT: College Hockey

I was just watching the second semifinal of the Frozen Four on ESPN when a Notre Dame player named Christian Hanson took a knock and was shown during a break trying to see if he could still go. I had a chuckle at the name because I immediately thought of the movie Slapshot. Suddenly, the camera cuts to a shot of his father sitting in the stands, and sure enough they say that he really was one of the HANSON brothers from the movie!!! I was truly LMAO.

So I went to the online player bio and sure enough found this:

... his father, Dave, played 10 years of pro hockey, including stints with the Detroit Red Wings, the Minnesota North Stars and the WHA's Minnesota Fighting Saints ... father is best known for his role in the movie, Slapshot, as one of the famed Hanson Brothers

Now this got me thinking about having to deal with some kids like this on a basketball court!
