Hockey Player

The Resume

    (January 8, 1993- )
    Born in Marsta, Sweden
    Drafted 52nd overall by the Anaheim Ducks in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft
    Forward for the Anaheim Ducks (2014-15), Columbus Blue Jackets (2015-17) and the Vegas Golden Knights
    Lady Byng Trophy winner (2018)

Why he might be annoying:

    His nickname is 'Wild Bill.'
    Despite being a scoring threat for Vegas during the team's run to the Stanley Cup Finals, his offensive production dried up in the actual series itself.
    Despite being a scorer in the Swedish leagues, he spent his entire tenure in Columbus on the bottom six forward lines.
    He opts to use his middle name instead of his birth name of Lars.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He established himself as a top six forward upon being selected by Vegas.
    He won the first individual award in the history of the Golden Knights franchise.
    He set career highs in all offensive categories in his first season with the Golden Knights.
    He broke Brian Bradley's NHL record for most goals scored by a player on an expansion franchise.
