Hockey Player

The Resume

    (September 27, 1983- )
    Born in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
    Third overall draft pick in the 2002 NHL Entry Draft
    Defenseman for the Florida Panthers (2002-09), Calgary Flames (2009-13) and the St. Louis Blues (2013-20)

Why he might be annoying:

    He was extremely over-hyped going into the 2002 NHL Entry Draft.
    He cried at the NHL Entry Draft when the Panthers traded down to take him third overall.
    He holds a grudge against former Panthers GM Rick Dudley, for Dudley's decision to trade the first overall pick to the Columbus Blue Jackets in order for the latter to select Rick Nash with the pick.
    As of 2011, he had yet to appear in a Stanley Cup Playoffs game.
    He demanded a trade from the Panthers.
    Despite getting a hefty contract with the Flames, he along with Dion Phaneuf and Robyn Regehr failed to live up to the Flames expectations of being a dominating defensive trio going into the 2009-10 season.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was a standout defenseman while playing with Medicine Hat of the Western Hockey League.
    He was considered the franchise cornerstone during the Panthers initial rebuilding project.
    He is considered a workhorse defenseman by hockey pundits.
    He cited playing for the Flames as 'a dream come true' during his introductory press conference in Calgary.
    He was a member of the Flames team that played in the 2011 Heritage Classic.
