Hockey Player

The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    His nickname 'The Rat' was originally used by Ken Linseman.
    He ruffled feathers in Vancouver, after he publicly called Daniel & Henrik Sedin 'The Sedin Sisters' amongst many derogatory comments towards them and the Canucks fanbase in an interview with a Chicago radio station.
    In response to his derogatory comments towards the Sedins, Alain Vigneault responded by saying he had 'An I.Q. of a birdseed and a face that only a mother could love.'
    He spent the majority of his lone season with the Maple Leafs on the injury reserve list.
    Some hockey pundits feel he plays an extremely dirty game.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was a member of two Stanley Cup winning teams in Chicago (2010, 2013).
    He scored the Stanley Cup clinching goal in a comeback victory in Game 6, in what was considered one of the most epic finishes in Stanley Cup Finals history (2013).
    He was excited about playing for the Leafs, as a result of growing up in the Greater Toronto Area.
    Despite his reputation of being an agitator, he is considered a respected teammate.
    He was a member of the London Knights team that set a Canadian Hockey League record for most wins in a single season, en route to a Memorial Cup victory (2004-05).
