Bump lol. Just randomly remembered Derek Roy was briefly a Canuck.

I had a coworker a couple years ago who grew up with Derek Roy in Ontario and played hockey with him as a kid.

Apparently Roy's dad was a super-aggro stereotypical idiot hockey dad who would yell and scream at him in front of the other kids after games, berate the refs consistently, and so on. This guy felt like Roy actually hated playing hockey but just did it for his dad's approval and because he couldn't really quit.

Might explain why Roy basically flamed out at age 28 and had 'partying' rumours following him around for most of his career.
