The OP literally mentioned Dryden in his post lol Unless he edited him in afterwards.

Gotcha, I somehow missed that. Actually did a quick “search thread” for Dryden and nothing came up, i see his name several times now though. Probably user error on my part.

Seriously? I posted him as a joke, have enough $ and recognition and you’ll succeed, I guess. Jail.


Wait, you mean for prisoners? The US has the biggest prisoner population on the planet, bigger than China’s, not even accounting for population difference! These are facts, it’s not political, I’m just marveling at that sweet sweet market! Forsberg did nothing wrong, for the record. Nations.. it’s almost like we’re all connected at this point, and certain anachronisms hold us back.

Ed Belfour is a billionaire.

Is Pink Whitney "successful"?

Ask virtually every post-secondary student in Canada

They were born into it though. Their family was wealthy before they were born. The most noteworthy thing Mike has done to many people, is marry (and divorce) a celebrity.

and the series of photos during the engagement are absolutely iconic

If you're a cop yeah

 

[Jack Skellington]

I see Dickie Moore rentals stuff all over construction sites driving around MTL. Assuming he started it after his career?

Retired NHL players user car salesmen

Hey guys, Remember in the 90s, how a weirdly high number of retired NHL players ended up getting jobs as spokespeople for used car dealerships? Does that still happen? Or are players making so much $$ now that in theory they never need to work again (and therefore don't need to do user car...

They are the footwear of choice for our corrections system, so that's a literal captive market.

Crocs are the closest thing to Boulder being a company town. Everyone knows what's going on with them and Celestial Seasonings.

Had no idea he was involved with Crocs. My boys’ friends all wear them everywhere here, my one son does as well, the other only wears Hey Dudes. Laughed when Crocs first showed back up and my son asked for them. Thought he was joking, a lot of them put wins in theirs.

Which NHL players were the most successful in life outside of hockey?

Guys like Tim Horton (donut shop founder) and Ken Dryden (politician).

Exclude hockey-related stuff (sports broadcasting, hockey related businesses, etc.)

Pretty sure Mario made a killing with his sale to FSG.

From that sale alone and he didn't sell off all of his stake in the team but he made around $350m just based off that sale and had some networth of around 200m before that.

He doesn't anymore. The company he owned that also distributed it took losses and he sold that off. So he used to be an investor and isn't anymore. I think the last I read about Foppa's business life was that he was an investor in Nexjet, massive Scandinavian airline.

Also he was divorced last year so there's a good chance a fat wad of his networth is sliced in half. Lol.

 

[archangel2]

I need some one to define successful in this case.

Teemu Selanne owns a couple steakhouses named after him in California and was in an awful straight to streaming movie with Brett Hull.

Chris Rock: "Jeff Bezos is so rich, he just got divorced and he is still the richest man on Earth."

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Richest I'd say funny enough are Mario and Wayne. Wayne gets money from that god awful winery and other investments. Mario took 20m owed to him and turned it to close to half a billion and that doesn't include his other investments.

Fitting it's 99 and 66.

Comrie might get his Dad's fortune or not. Barrie might as well but that's not a fortune they built.

Chris Rock: "Jeff Bezos is so rich, he just got divorced and he is still the richest man on Earth."

From what I can find, his networth is around 55m.

Foppa should have gotten a prenup.

 

[Rodgerwilco]

Is Pink Whitney "successful"?

I’d say so, at least around here in Pittsburgh it’s pretty popular among women particularly. Most that I’ve spoken to don’t even know that Ryan Whitney played hockey in Pittsburgh.

It’s my wife’s favorite liquor and she thought I was trolling when I told her that he played a good chunk of his career here lol.

Does not work that way in Europe

Ed Belfour has his own whiskey company.

Free whiskey gets rid of his primary expense.

Marrying and divorcing a celebrity is a thing he's done to many people?
