Hockey Player

The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He has one of the NHL's most ugliest mugs.
    He injured his back picking a cracker up off the floor, missing the first game of a playoff series (2007).
    He played two separate stints with the Canucks.
    Despite trying out with the Detroit Red Wings, he opted to sign a contract with the rival Blackhawks instead.
    He was traded in part of the Blackhawks fire sale, days after the team won their first Stanley Cup championship in 49 years.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He became a regular in the Canucks lineup in his third season with the team.
    He played well enough with the Blackhawks to earn a three year contract extension, despite not having a contract in training camp.
    Despite being traded, he was chosen as the Hawks Stanley Cup representative at the 2010 Chicago Pride Parade.
    He said he also participated at the Pride Parade, in support of the late Brendan Burke, son of his former GM in Vancouver, Brian Burke.
