Haven’t heard this before. Those are hilarious lol
Fun story, Whitey is part of the alumni for those who don't know and he's present on the concourse for some games signing autographs if you get in the building early enough. He also happens to be my dad's favorite defensemen.
I met him before the Vegas game and mentioned that about my dad and got a picture with him, and I had to ask him about Rupper blowing up his spot about "One Eyed Whitey's". He got a big laugh out of it. Said something to the effect of "I can't believe he brought up One Eyed Whitey's on the air".
Such an awesome guy. Gotta love that he came back from that eye injury and can laugh about it with his home bar name.
With the eye injury and his gravelly voice, he might really be a pirate.
